Sometimes there's nothing better than getting the old gang back together again, and that's exactly what went down this weekend in Wilmington, NC. Friends With Benefit Charity reunited several cast members [1] of the WB's hit drama One Tree Hill [2] to help raise money for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and The Girls Project, and it was like taking a trip back to 2003!
The weekend-long fan event reunited stars, including Sophia Bush, Hilarie Burton, Lee Norris, Antwon Tanner, Bryan Greenberg, and Tyler Hilton — all of whom played major characters over the show's nine-season run. The cast spent the weekend taking numerous photos with fans during meet and greets, attending a fashion show, and rocking out to a benefit concert that was held in the warehouse that was the actual filming location for the series' well-known "Tric" nightclub. The mere thought of the déjà vu they must have experienced has me shook.
Adorably enough, the cast filled their social media with photos and videos to document their time together. They all look like they're having so much fun, it's hard to believe that any time has passed since OTH ended in 2012. Mouth (Norris) and Skills (Tanner) were back together once again [4]! Brooke (Bush) and Peyton (Burton) proved they're still ultimate friend goals [5] over 10 years later and will always be better than your favorites. They even helped two fans get engaged [6]!
And — in case the nostalgia wasn't already enough — Peyton (Burton) and Jake (Greenberg) were finally reunited. The two actors had a super precious reunion [7] with Grace Holcomb, who played Jake's daughter Jenny. Holcomb is 15 years old now, but she obviously hasn't forgotten her Tree Hill roots! The reunion definitely has every "Jeyton" fan ruing the day that Peyton and Jake ended their sweet little family (no, I'm totally not projecting here).
I'm getting dizzy from the throwback-ness of it all, but in a very good way. Keep reading to check out more photos from the amazing OTH reunion, and just in case you were wondering, all seasons of the show are available to watch on Hulu [8]. (You're welcome.)
