Last night, one lucky fan of William Shatner<\/strong> got to have dinner with William<\/strong> and Elizabeth Shatner<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The contest began back in March in honor of Shatner’s eighty-first birthday, when it was announced that the millionth follower of Shatner would win tickets to Shatner’s “Shatner’s World<\/em>” show plus dinner with Shatner and wife afterwards.<\/p>\n

“I am really jazzed up on this ‘Thrill Bill with a Mill’ for his birthday and I want to put in a couple incentives to get Bill to 1 Million by his birthday this week,” said Elizabeth Shatner<\/strong> on William Shatner’s website. “The 1 millionth follower will get the choice of Tickets to Shatner’s World at the closest city near them plus dinner with Bill and I afterwards!”<\/p>\n

The lucky winner was Troy Pound<\/strong> of Wagener, South Carolina. Pound and his wife were treated to dinner with the Shatners after the show.<\/p>\n

“As promised, the millionth Twitter follower,” said Shatner, in a video taken of the event. “We’re having dinner. Thank you, everybody.”<\/p>\n

Pound tweeted about the dinner. “Still in awe of last night’s dinner,” he said. “What a wonderful time we had. Thank you.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
