My name is Matt. I’m a 24 year old from western Pennsylvania. Just like everyone here, I’m a huge Ghostbusters fan. It was one of the greatest things from my childhood and I still love it. I’m a bit of a collector, I met [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) in 2006 and my Egon should be here sometime today. Anything you wanna know just ask.

ok, there is this Harley Davidson thing to benefit sheltered animals late September

the Pittsburgh Comicon mid-September

wrapping up principal photography for the Fan Film in Sept/start Post work (we hope)

December we hope to be partial sponsors for [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) at the Steel City Con in December and have a table near him, raise money for the group with raffles or something.

We have an Ecto (possibly 2) waiting in the wings, maybe some [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) casting, and whatever else I can’t remember…
