Thanks for the stories everyone...I don't know what I would have done if my friend hadn't shown up at the exact same time, but it was cool just to be able to sahre the story.

years ago (I'll explain better in a bit) my wife and I were on a 747 sitting in Cape Town, South Africa, waiting to refuel for the return journey to Miami. My wife was sitting by the window and saw all the flashing lights of a VIP escort approach the plane, an entourage get out and climb the stairs into the main door.
She: Is that Evander Holyfield?
Me: Don't be ridiculous. Evander Holyfield is not getting on our plane in Cape Town. (I roll my eyes and look over her shoulder).
Me: Holy ^&!@ that's Evander Holyfield.

Anyway, long story short, I have a first class menu from South African Airlines signed by Holyfield.
And as to when this happened, his ear was still bandaged...

Id hate that to happen. I know a few members that didn't have a sharpie, and missed out on getting autos, a few times they have met hockey superstars.

I don't do that kind of stuff, but to the OP it isn't the end of the world because Herschel is very good TTM.

I had the fortune of getting him IP after I had gotten him TTM and his auto looked very similar and I would say the TTMs are real from him.

i was walkin thru the mall years ago and my cousin said "theres big daddy"..i didnt know who that was but he told me dan wilkinson and he just got drafted number one by the bengals.i ran to the card shop that was in the mall at the time and bought packs of classic 4sport til i got his card.about 10pks later i got one then ran to cvs in the mall and bought a sharpie then ran him down.he had no problem signing and talkin for a lil bit.never amounted to much in the nfl but still cool nonetheless.

A couple of years ago, a former roommate of mine promoted a party at a nightclub. I was given VIP access to the 3rd floor since I also did publicity and promoting for them. There were some other guys up there, hanging out with our crew, that looked familiar but I couldn't figure out where they were from. I found out a couple of days later that they were members of Seether and Finger Eleven, who performed at a festival earlier in the day. A couple of buddies did get photos taken with them, but I missed out big time since I didn't have anything on me to sign nor my camera with me to get photos with.
