i've done it. same success rate as c/o home. some sign, some dont. if the business has a website and I can find the players email, i'll send a permission email first.

Yeah, the permission email would have been a good idea. I'll try that if I ever need to send to another business. Thanks for the help everyone, I sent the card out on Monday. I'll update if/when I get a reply.

Be careful as this hobby can be addicting! First it is a request or two. Then you are burning through a few books of stamps a month. Then you really get hooked and you are dropping 300 letters out to baseball Spring Training! Trust me it sounds crazy, but it can happen. After thousands of requests and returns you come back to reality and ask yourself what you are going to do with all these signed cards!
