PITTSBURGH, PA — It's an appropriate time of year for the two stars of "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation," and the rest of the "Vacation" movies to come to town. With Christmas on the horizon, Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelso will do just that this weekend.

Both are scheduled to attend the latest Steel City Con at the Monroeville Convention Center. Chase will be there Saturday and Sunday; D'Angelo will appear Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Chase, 79, anchored the National Lampoon "Vacation" franchise that also included "National Lampoon's Vacation," "National Lampoon's European Vacation," and "National Lampoon's Vegas Vacation." He also starred as Irwin "Fletch" Fletcher in the movies "Fletch" and "Fletch Lives," and in the iconic comedy "Caddyshack."

In addition to playing Ellen Griswold in the "Vacation" movies, D'Angelo, 71, has appeared in more than 60 films. She was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for her role as Patsy Cline in "Coal Miner's Daughter," and for an Emmy award for her performance in the TV version of "A Streetcar Named Desire."
