Authenticity is Everything

Advice needed, would you have Ernie Hudson sign this Ghostbusters Photo?

I'm planning on meeting Ernie Hudson to have a few Ghostbusters items signed and Wondering how you all feel about him signing a photo of the main 3 even though he is not pictured.

Specifically this picture, I want I'm to sign "Ray, if someone asks if you're a god, you say yes! Ernie Hudson Winston" vertically where I drew in the red lines, above Harold Ramis's signature. I know it's ultimately my choice but feel I could go either way although leaning towards him signing it. If I ever run into a happy Bill Murray and complete this, and also maybe even sigourney as well one day.. would that be overkill for this photo?

Also, anyone know if I can add Ernie (JSA $12 convention deal) to a JSA sticker placed on an LOA already made up for Harold Ramis? Beckett placed a witnessed sticker for Aykroyd already and I'm trying to avoid multiple stickers. Beckett will not be at this show, only JSA

Already sent JSA a message but who knows when they will respond. Was anyone previously successful doing this with JSA?

Went to Planet Comicon in Kansas City today. Scoped out the area last night and it was so unbelievably crowded. Made a plan on a few places to park for free and got some rest. Arrived at the area later than I wanted at 920am (Sunday).. the area was dead compared to last night. Lots of free parking still available at the lot on 7th and main. Walking distance to the convention but we took the free trolly a few blocks just for fun.

We walked up without having pre-purchase tickets. Plan was to figure out the quickest way in on the spot. The will call booths were empty so I quickly purchased inflated tickets online at $60 each. And walked up to get our wristbands. After that, it was an extremely long hike to get to the back of the line. We were still confused where to go. Asked an employee and, since our 6 year old daughter was in a small kids stroller, they had us jump on an elevator that went right up to the entrance, a special area for people with strollers and wheelchairs.. it was like a cheat code, bypassing hundreds in line waiting to get in.

We ended up being 5th in line awaiting for Ernie Hudson. He was about 40 minutes late and the line built up to about 40 to 50 behind me. He finally arrived and took his time with everyone. We talked a little about "Airheads" since everything else has been asked to death. He gave my daughter a hug andade her an official Ghostbuster... She's going to be excited about that for a long time.

He signed every photo exactly how I wanted. Took his time to test the paint pens and make sure there were no mistakes. Also was aware they needed time to dry. The experience wasn't cheap. $460 for all signatures, quotes, photo, and he added his character name to a previously signed photo. Wrote out Winston Zeddmore in full..

I've been waiting 20 plus years to meet him and the stars finally aligned and I made it happen. We went to JSA right behind Ernie for some quick authentication and left the area. He was the only reason why we attended.

So if anyone is interested, that was our experience at Planet Comicon on Sunday March 29th 2026. I've been stressing about this trip all week while fighting a tooth infection. Now I need a real vacation. Here is what I got today
