Epilepsy Awareness PSA Featuring Rick Harrison from TV's 'Pawn Stars'

As part of our new #DareTo education and awareness campaign, the Epilepsy Foundation presents a new public service announcement featuring Rick Harrison from TV’s “Pawn Stars.” Harrison, who lived with seizures as a child, is now a national spokesperson for the Foundation and serves on the organization’s national Board of Directors. This PSA will air on the A&E Networks including History, home of “Pawn Stars” and other series created by Harrison.

“I had bad seizures until I was a teenager. I thought I wouldn't have the chance to grow up. But, I dared to think differently,” says Harrison in the PSA. “My epilepsy taught me to be a fighter. When I said I wanted to make a TV series out of my pawn shop, people thought I was nuts. But, I dared to defy the odds and Pawn Stars was born. If you have epilepsy, dare to live to your fullest potential. The Epilepsy Foundation will help you dare.”
