Overview

• Stamos appeared Saturday at Chicago’s Riot Fest, with organizers posting “WE DID IT” to celebrate the long-sought cameo.
• Festival announcements had said he would sit in on drums with The Beach Boys, extending a guest role he has held on and off for decades.
• A larger-than-life Stamos statue—recreated by food sculptor Jim Victor and not actually made of butter—was displayed on site, which Stamos amplified with a playful social post.
• His conditions for attending included a look‑alike contest, a Greek‑style pizza in his honor, quirky green‑room items and other requests, with some fulfillment still unconfirmed.
• Giordano’s introduced “The Stamos Supreme” pizza in August, and founder Mike Petryshyn was reported to have gotten a Stamos-related tattoo as the festival marked its 20th year with new attractions.
