Here are some emails I received about the Torrie Wilson FHM signing. Someone sent me some photo's but I couldn't open the file. It said it was a corrupt file.
I attended this event and here are a few notes:
Pretty packed place. About a few hundred or so showed i believe.
To everyone's surprise, Vito also showed up with Torrie, wearing his dress. Stayed in character the whole time too. Really great guy.
Torrie was very nice and pleasant to be around. Lots of fans including myself got autographs, as well as took pictures with her and Vito for free. Overall it was a very fun event, with no problems occurring. Sorry for not sending photos, i was using a non digital. Hopefully someone will send a few your way.

Hey Georgie. I just came back from the Torrie Wilson signing and it was a great time. She was only 10 minutes late and there was a surprise appearance by Vito, dress and all. There was only about 100 people because I think a lot of people blew it off due to the timing and location. Vito actually took a video of the crowd on his "Vito Cam". It was a great time and I am so glad I went.

Hi I attended the Torrie Wilson event in boston today.
The set up for the event overall was good. It had good planning and it
was in and out w/ hassle. Photo ops were all right and you could get the
FHM mag signed plus 1 other.
Torrie was late, arriving about 20 or so minutes late.
It looked like she was coming from a commuter or Amtrak train b/c she
was walking down a track platform but I don't know exactly.
She had Vito w/ her. The reason for Vito appearing in Boston-S,Station
is beyond me. He walked around the area w/ a digital camera. He met fans,

The Torrie Wilson line wasn't that bad and wasn't as bad as people would
think. I don't think there was more than 100 people in line. Though the
people who like to go back in the line 20 more times don't count.
It was a fun event even though I have to concerns for autograph
sessions.
My first concern is why do people have to hold spots in line for 10
people when those 10 people probably were not in line to begin with and
making other fans who have been there for hours push back in line
causing a person who was there for 3 hrs from being #10 in line to #20.
It's beyond me.
Also, what's up w/ the kids/people who have like 10 items for a person
to sign. It's sad to see/hear guys w/ 8x10 photos or magazines trying to
get their friends to get stuff signed w/out it personalize so they can
sell the stuff on Ebay.
I saw a few guys w/ up to 10 items for Torrie, Some others had close to
it-About 7.
I guess 1 or 2 isn't good enough for some. You need to profit from these
appearances.
All this does. Is tie up the line and cause more of a wait. Also I feel
bad for those who are waiting in line who came late and they see ppl in
line ahead of them or behind who have already gone through the line and
are willing to get back into line just for another autograph to sell and
profit.
But I give props/kudos to S. Station security, FHM staff, the magazine
place and any one else who put this on. It was good overall. Thanks

I attended the Torrie wilson signing with my wife and daughter and we took the T up there from south attleboro. We got there very early at around 10am and were the first of the fans to arrive. There was no organization at all as far as a line goes until about 40 minutes prior to the autograph session at around 5:20pm.
Until that point there was a crowd of fans just standing around getting in each others way. We were first in line when they finally did organize it and Torrie was about 20 minutes late which is typical though for signings. Torrie was very nice as usual and took the time to talk to you one on one and had no problem signing as much stuff as you had for her to sign. This was my 3rd time meeting her and she was pleasant each time.
It was a very unorganized event overall but still a good time. WWE`s only current man to wear a dress BIG VITO also arrived as a surprise guest and was also very nice and took the time to sign all autographs and take pics as well.
Thats my input and I'll keep you posted on the session tonight at waterworks as I'm attending that as well with my friend Matt Kenney.
Take care..... Joe Bruen
Thanks to Bob for sending link to photo's. Seems like a lot of kids for an FHM signing. LOL
WireImage: Listings There are two photo's of Vito in a dress, although it lists him as a fan with Torrie...
