As a matter of fact, that happened to me when I was at the TTT showing! I was wearing this long, flowy, Elven-type wrap dress (as a coat), and I was wearing this black velvet tunic that I made with black leggings and boots (what can I say, I felt Ranger-ish that day) and I was carrying my sword (Hadhafang, which I ordered from the Noble Collection Catalog) on my back. A bunch of little kids had just come in the door, when they all started screaming hysterically and running towards me. I could make out, "It's a Ranger! It's a Ranger!" amidst the babble. Needless to say, I felt extremely satisfied! Just to show off, I started rattling off a few greetings here and there in Sindarin and Quenya and impressed a bunch of people. Apparently, the manager of the theater was there too. He came over and asked me if I wanted to work part-time as a LotR promoter there. All I had to do was walk around in my costume for a while and spout lines in Sindarin!!!!!!
