Good news, Chumlee fans! The Pawn Stars favorite is back at the shop, hanging out with customers and raising money for charity. If you happen to be in the neighborhood, stop by the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop some afternoon. According to his Twitter feed, it’s the best time of day to meet up with Chumlee.
The official Pawn Stars website indicated that Chumlee even took the time, over the holiday weekend, to sign autographs with buddies Antwan and Mark Hall Patton.

With his legal troubles seemingly behind him, Chumlee is extremely thankful for the positive outcome he experienced. In an exclusive KSNV News 3 report, Austin Russell told reporter Gerard Ramalho that he’s focusing on moving forward with his life.
In part, this is what Chumlee had to say. He expressed both humility and regret in his statement.
“I’m moving on. I don’t want to dwell on the past. You know I’m here and I’m just learning from my mistakes and I’m happy to be in a situation where I can move forward and I can still work every day, just good to be back to normal life doing what I know.”
Chumlee also had this to say about his continued notoriety. “From the bottom of my heart I’m so thankful and grateful to have fans.” He’s proving some of that gratitude, by participating in more “meet and greets.”
In addition to being more active at the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop, Chumlee plans on doing all he can to help raise money for a variety of different charities. The Epilepsy Foundation is the first organization he and the rest of the Pawn Stars crew will be working with.

Vegas News recently shared additional information, regarding Chumlee’s most recent fundraising efforts. Every Thursday, throughout the summer, Chumlee will be signing autographs and requesting donations for specific charity partners. See the schedule below. Please note, additional charities and days will be announced soon.
- July 7-Noah’s Animal Shelter
- July 14-HELP of Southern Nevada
- July 21-Children’s Heart Foundation
- July 28-Grant A Gift (supports autism research)
- August 4-Shine Family Foundation (supports veterans)
Wait… it gets even better! Anyone who makes a donation of at least $100 to the charity of the week is eligible to eat lunch with Chumlee the next day. These lunches are private events, open to the first five people who donate.
Even with all of his new plans in place, it looks like Chumlee still has time to auction off some of his famous shoe collection on eBay. As of this writing, six pairs are for sale. If you happen to be in the market for a pair of 2013 Stefan Janoski Lemon Twist Zooms or 2009 Ron Burgundy Dunk Low Pros, you’re in luck!
You might recall a previous Inquisitr report, which showcased some of his collection and vast knowledge of shoes in general. If you have a few minutes and an interest in Chumlee’s shoe-related success, watch the video. He really does know his stuff!
Are you happy to see Chumlee back out and about? Would you donate $100 to one of his favorite charities in order to have lunch with him? Feel free to leave your thoughts about Chumlee and the Pawn Stars gang below.
