Henry Winkler Was Spotted In Illinois One Week After Will Ferrell

Henry Winkler was chillin' in Illinois one week after Will Ferrell was spotted in Pekin and Peoria, but did anybody really know about it?

I used to be all about celebrity news and keeping up to date where celebrities were traveling, especially when they came to Illinois.

It would've been cool to meet Will Ferrell when he was in Pekin and Peoria a few weeks ago, but it would've also been amazing to meet the one and only Fonzie... aka Henry Winkler!

Winkler was in Normal, Illinois this month and nobody is talking about it?!

He was actually in town for a Conference.  He was also spotted at a Coffeehouse in Uptown Normal buying refreshments.  Then, he was seen shopping at a Children's Discovery Museum.

Sooooooo, did anybody know about this?

Luckily, the TSA staff recognized him at the Central Illinois Regional Airport and got a photo with him!  How cool is that!

Someone who attended his speaking engagement left this comment,

"I saw him speak yesterday at a conference. His point was to be all you can be. Also watch your words with kids. It causes damage that can’t be repaired. Henry has dyslexia and had a miserable childhood. Now he is writing kids books." [Beth Longman]

Another fan said,

"You don't ask the Fonz to "say cheese". You ask the Fonz to "Ayyyye"." [Joe Bateman]
