CyberErik's Success Thread- just starting out, feedback and help welcome!

[vikesfan40]

I think the gore is real because I got him last year and that wasn't a autopen. Sweet success on the Farve Will send to him now.

[smootzilla]

favre is autopen

[buffalobills]

i dont know bro that farve looks like it could be the real deal, ive seen a few other recent success and the sig is diffenetly diffrent. i might just have to try this one i got him years ago when he was with Greenbay so at some point he did sign, hopefully he is signing again.....anyway congrats

Like I posted in your other thread, I still firmly believe the Favre is not authentic. Whether autopenned or some other manner (stamp, ghost signed, etc.), something just doesn't seem right.

However, I'll still probably send to him, just to check it out. Don't wanna kick myself on the off chance its real!

[cyberer]

Yeah, I wouldn't have titled my last post "convince me these ARENT autopen" if I was not skeptical of the favre. However I think there is a good chance that it is real because they don't match up.

Anyways thanks for the input guys.

On to more successes:

I went to the akers/stewart bradley radio show tonight. Both of these guys were really great and let me take a picture with them, and I even got to chit chat with akers about the team and the loss to the bears, and what he thought about the FG try down by 15 in the 4th Q.





What's more I won the raffle and got a signed Akers Jersey!

Another awesome night in person at the 76ers game. This really has been a hot streak for the ages.

I get there early when the gates open and make a mad dash for the 76ers shooting around on the court. I am depressed because Brand and Turner, two of the good signers I came to get, aren't warming up, and only Nocioni and Iguodala (the jerk who never signs) were working out. Well to my astonishment after workouts Iguodala stopped and signed for everyone there (like 4-5 people) and even posed for a picture with a little kid.



My friend who I was with was a big Portland fan, and he was by their tunnel. So I ran over to show him the Iguodala. To my astonishment again, at the exact moment that I got over to show him the autograph, Andre Miller the former 76er on portland was signing! Talk about the right place at the right time.



Right after this the usher came by to throw us out. I saw Eric Snow, former player and current announcer, about 20 feet away on the court. I say to the usher "Cmon man I'm trying to get Snow right there!" He's like, "Snow is going the other way you're never going to get him, and you have to get out of here and get to your seat." Then he paused and said "Here give it to me and I'll get it for you." And with that, he walked out to Eric Snow, waited patiently until he finished his conversation (about 5 minutes) got the auto and walked back and gave it to me. WOW an usher assist, the rarest of all possible autographs...



So with that the game started. Sixers rally from 8 points down at one point to win by 8, great game. I had a lot of work to do tonight when I got home, so I almost didn't go to the parking lot. However since it was nice out and since they won, I decided to go to the parking lot. Hey, I have to press my hot streak, right?

So I go there and Elton Brand promptly blows past us in his Gold Mercedes without stopping. Andre Iguodala followed shortly thereafter in his Land Rover.

We got some mediocre successes- Nocioni and Spencer Hawes stopped (all awkward white guys look the same). Also, Lou Williams pulled over in his SWEET ferrari.



Suddenly, 2 black SUVs blew past us. The kid near me said Evan Turner drove a black SUV. However one of the SUVs instead of exiting the stadium instead moved to the front door of the stadium and waited. The kids near me took off running hoping that it was Evan Turner. I followed. When we got there Thaddeus Young rolled down the window and signed for us, saying that we chased him down so we deserved his auto.

We were depressed though because we thought that Evan Turner left in that 2nd black SUV. We were just about to pack up shop when a car pulls up, another big SUV. The window rolls down. Jrue Holliday says "hey" to us. And what's more, the kid near me yells "look in the passenger seat!" I look and see EVAN TURNER sitting in the passenger seat. They were blasting rap with 3 girls in the back, but they signed for all of us- 1 auto each.



Turner has an awesome Sig!

Wow I am so glad I went to the parking lot, and so glad that we waited for that last SUV!



Thaddeus Young, Jrue Holliday and Lou Williams on the same card from the encounters above.

Why the hate for Iggy, "the jerk who never signs??" Iggy has always been cool whenever I see him.

Good day. The NBA is by far, besides golf, the best sport to graph in person.

[REDANDGOLDPRIDE]

Evan Turner... Very nice.

[cyberer]

I never graphed the sixers in person when Iggy was playing (he was injured last time) so my hate was ill-founded. I was just going by what some kids told me there.

Since he signed for me I'm not a hater, I just posted that statement to say what I was expecting vs. what actually happened, and therefore what an awesome surprise it was!

[nolafan33]

Allen Miller? lol

You mean Andre right?
