''Gilmore Girls'' phone number links to charity -- Luke's cell phone number on the show connects to a real-life message from his portrayer.
Not all phone numbers on TV are five-five-five fake.
The season 5 premiere of Gilmore Girls saw Luke get a new cell phone number (860-294-1986 - since disconnected) that actually worked (at the time), connecting callers to a very enthusiastic, very un-Luke-like message from actor Scott Patterson asking for donations to benefit the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center in Baltimore.
Series creator Amy Sherman-Palladino confesses the real-live digits satisfy more than altruistic urges.
"If I hear someone say ‘555’ on television, I’m going to put my own head through a wall,” she laughs.
Her loathing of fake TV phone numbers led to the purchase of an actual one.
Knowing fans would call, Sherman-Palladino left it up to Patterson, who has been involved with various charities, to choose the message.
"It’s kind of nice," she says, "anytime you can be associated with something a little bit hopeful."
Following Amy Sherman-Palladino's generosity - for a limited time a portion of the proceeds from the All Things Gilmore Mug Club, & the All Things Gilmore Collection will be donated to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Did you verify it yourself?
I saw an article from 2016 that indicated somebody else had the phone number.
Were you just rehashing something that’s very old?
