Finally meet the love of my life, and get banned from the rest of the con and lose two more $100 photo ops with him because I lost my mind... got so excited standing beside him .... & just turned my head and bit him! I don’t know what came over me. It wasn’t my intention to hurt him. I’m sorry Norman!
The woman’s Instagram account says her name is Robin Grover. She even asks Dixon on her profile page to follow her.
