TOMBSTONE Actor Val Kilmer Surprises Fans on the Streets of Tombstone, Arizona
One of Val Kilmer's most iconic roles is Doc Holliday from the 1993 western Tombstone. And this weekend Doc returned to Tombstone, Arizona to the cheers of fans.
Kilmer came to Tombstone for the "Doc Holli-Days" event that celebrates the life of gunslinger Doc Holliday. Kilmer wore a cowboy hat, sunglasses and bright green shoes as he was led through town in a horse-drawn coach from the 1880s.
Kilmer teased the even on his twitter account a few days ago so there was a pretty large turnout close to 20, 000 people in attendance
