Blanche Devereaux: \u201cNot only do you get to see our tribute show, but you get to meet some of the people behind \u2018The Golden Girls,\u2019 like writers and producers and script supervisors. We also have personal assistants from Estelle Getty and Bea Arthur, so not only do you get to see behind-the-scenes, but you also get to learn a lot about their personal lives as well. And it\u2019s gonna be a lot of secrets as we pull back the curtain on the whole television series.\u201d<\/p>\n
Secrets, fun, and some wise words from Rose.<\/p>\n
Rose Nylund: \u201cThe older you get, the better you get. Unless you\u2019re a banana.\u201d<\/p>\n
And a whole lot of shenanigans, including trivia, photo ops, and a sing-along!<\/p>\n
Because at the end of the day, this fan experience is all about celebrating friendship.<\/p>\n
Rose Nylund: \u201cIt\u2019s about the community and finding like-minded people and people like ourselves later on in life. You know, life\u2019s not done when you turn 50.\u201d<\/p>\n
