There's a SPN con in Minneapolis this weekend, and it's been confirmed that Misha was mugged last night. He's insisting on doing the photo ops people have paid for but, understandably, he doesn't feel up to doing his panel today. Visible stitches and bruises, apparently.
Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

He just tweeted that he's just got some minor scrapes.

I don't know what our current thinking is on real person discussion, but I do know that Jared and Gen were photographed recently--posted on their twitter(s), I guess, reading Jep and Jessica Robertson's book. He and Jensen both are rumored to be friends with the second gen Duck Dynasty scion, who has not stated he shares his family's homophobic, racist, and misogynistic beliefs, but has in fact said he "stands by" his family's beliefs. So, Jared's shiny image has been tarnished, a bit, by association, since many of his fans are LBTQ, women, and POC.
Jensen has never taken a public step away from his dad's poisonous stand on abortion, but has chosen the wiser path of silence on the subject. Maybe Jared should do the same.

Someone who's at MinnCon posted a photo she took with Misha. He's got his head turned so that only half his face is visible, but it doesn't look too bad. [link]

He tweeted he "just has some scrapes" and he's "totally fine."

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I used to worry for Misha's safety in his first season, because he was ridiculously accessible to the fans. I nearly had a stroke when he tweeted his location and asked someone for an ibuprofen during his run.
In a way, it's heartening to know that he was right to believe fandom was good and they were fine with him.
It doesn't sound like fans at all that robbed him. If guys followed him out of a restaurant, then it could have been a random mugging. His Twitter reassurance to the fans, gives me hope that he will not be left with fear. Sweet, silly Misha would be tragic to lose.
Also, this would have been a good opportunity for ita to become his bodyguard.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
If the guys who mugged him are caught, they need to fear the fandom.

Oh, man. Yeah.
So I'm at work the other day and two college age girls are talking, and one says to the other, "So you know Jessica Moore, right?"
My head shoots up, and I think, How does she not know Jessica is dead?!
And then I remember that Jess is a FICTIONAL CHARACTER.

He's done that a couple of times when he had his kids with him. I worried.
