Standing in line after having paid my money, finally getting to stand in front of my seated hero while he signs whatever is put in front of him without looking up, and then quickly moving on? An experience I'd much rather forget. And probably will.

Sadly that seems normal and kinda always has been. I am truly sorry that meeting him like so many others have was a bad experience for you.
