Though the photo op experience happens in a matter of 5-10 seconds, and you’ll have to wait in line, a photo with some of these international celebrities can be treasured for a lifetime. For $80, you can get a photo op with huge stars such as Stephen Amell (Arrow), Clark Gregg (Agents of SHIELD), or Chandler Riggs (Walking Dead). Think about it. For the price of ticket to just watch a 49ers or Raiders game, you can walk away with posed photo of you and one of your favorite actors. Pretty cool. All prices and talent are subject to change and availability can be gone at any minute, so visit the official site and follow the event on Twitter for the latest updates. Don’t forget VIP packages! Some are sold out, but here’s what’s left.
