Star of Gilmore Girls reminisces about playing baseball in Savannah
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) — Actor Scott Patterson, best known for playing Luke on 'Gilmore Girls,' will appear June 6 and 7 at Epic Cons: Savannah (June 6 through 8). He – along with dozens more stars of the big and small screens – will meet and interact with fans. Stars of the big and small screen coming to the Coastal Empire for Epic Cons: Savannah June 6-8 Patterson spoke with WSAV about the impact 'Gilmore Girls' has had on fans over the years. 'There's a lot of people that are just catching on to it and they've just discovered it recently. They say they just can't get enough of it. They fall asleep with it. They have it on while they're doing their housework or cooking. You know, it's amazing. Sometimes I meet four generations of the show's fans: the great-grandparents, the grandparents, the parents, the kids. They just don't make many shows like 'Gilmore Girls' anymore.' Patterson says he loves when fans will discuss specific episodes with him. It makes him realize how the show's themes and topics really resonated with viewers. 'When you realize that the details of this show really drill down with people and they carry it in their hearts? It's really amazing. Every encounter I have had with a 'Gilmore Girls' fan, whether it's in a restaurant, the gym, wherever I am, it's always very heartfelt and very sweet.' Patterson is looking forward to coming back to Savannah for the first time in more than 40 years for more than just the convention. Before he was an actor, he was professional baseball player. 'I was drafted by the Atlanta Braves in 1980. I started the season in Durham, North Carolina, in the Carolina League. And then halfway through the season, I was promoted to Savannah, Georgia, the Double-A affiliate of the Atlanta Braves at that time. And it was very exciting promotion, a very exciting time because I became a bona fide prospect. And I did very well in Savannah. It's a lovely place with lovely people. And I actually didn't want to leave. I mean, you want to be called up. But of all the minor league cities I've ever lived in, Savannah was always my favorite.'
