But according to a man named Hank, who paid to attend, O’Neal spoke to just 20 per cent of the thousands of people in attendance before making an exit.
He said: ‘The whole event was a mess. I reckon 80 per cent of the line got no photo.
‘There were thousands there; he would have got through 20 per cent of the line.’
