Autograph Signings
One of the biggest things I love doing is going to various autograph signings. I have met many people over the past year or so, including current and former Chicago Bears, Chicago Bulls, and even some of the 1985 Chicago Bears. I have personally been to 33 different autograph signings and I have 61 autographs total, that I have either bought or someone else went to a signing for me and gave me the autograph. Some of the best players that I have met include, Derrick Rose, Joakim Noah, Scottie Pippen, Luol Deng, and William "The Refrigerator" Perry. I love going to all of these various signings and it will be a great thing to one day tell a child of mine, that I have met so many different famous people. The most recent signing I went to was at Dick's Sporting Goods on July 31st, where Stacey King and Scottie Pippen were going to signing. Dick's opened at 9 a.m. and I showed up at 8:30, Scottie Pippen wasn't scheduled to be there until 1 p.m. I waited outside in a line of about 75 people at that time and received a wristband to be guaranteed a Scottie Pippen autograph. It was a really really happy moment for me because Scottie Pippen is such a legendary player and most recently a Hall of Famer! We weren't able to line up until about 11:30 which we did and Scottie ended up showing at around 1:30. After Scottie got done, Stacey King came and everyone with his wristband got to get his autograph. I was able to get his autograph as well and meet one of the best broadcasters I know. Scottie Pippen was the 60th autograph that I have in my collection which made it even more special because I wanted to get somebody really good for number 60. I cannot wait to see who will be added to my collection in the future.
