I said good day!: Wilmer Valderrama in El Paso for Fort Bliss meet and greet

Wilmer Valderrama, the popular actor from "That 70's Show," was in El Paso Friday for a meet and greet at Fort Bliss.

Representatives from Freedom Crossing confirmed Valderrama was in town for a meet and greet hosted by the Army and Air Forces Exchange Services at Freedom Crossing. AAFES is a joint military activity that provides services to active duty, guard and reserve members.

Valderrama, who now stars in "NCIS," has been tweeting about his participation in the USO Tour and shaking service members' hands.

He was last in El Paso in 2018 as a featured speaker at the El Paso Hispanic Chamber of Commerce's 2018 Fiesta Celebration.

Former District 7 Rep. Líly Limón got to take part in welcoming Valderrama and described him as a super nice man. She got to spend the day with him and have lunch at the iconic L&J Cafe, where many celebrities have eaten, including Martha Stewart and Faith Hill.

"He was here to do a USO visit at Ft. Bliss. In the morning, we toured Lincoln Center and the murals. From there went to see the monument of the Men of Company E.," she said. "He is working on a project centered on that and then we went to lunch with him."

Limón said the Lincoln Conservation Committee organized the tour.

Limón said Valderrama had the carne asada tacos and tried the tortilla soup, guacamole and chile con queso.

"He really enjoyed all the food. He was really pleased with the presentation of the tres leches cake and the flan," she added.
