did you ever get something you didnt ask for thru the mail?
Like they sent you somethin because you wrote a nice note, or maybe you DID ask, like did you ask them for their batting gloves or wrist band or anything else like that? plmk

I asked Jerry Hairston Jr. for his cleats, never got them though. Yet the season is still not over.

Not really. Except for Gordie Howe. He personalized a picture for me but didn't sign the card I sent.
I've heard of lots of players throwing in a couple cards when they send back but it hasn't hapened to me yet.

My major throw in was from Phil Rizzuto. He wrote me a small note and added a HOF postcard that he signed.

In 2002 I sent an autograph request to Dave Krynzel, a prospect with the Brewers and he signed my card pretty quickly but later in the year he also sent me a Christmas card. Of course I think he sent Christmas cards to everyone who sent him an autograph request that year but it was still pretty cool.

I had wrote to Al Downing a few years ago , sending a card , a magazine and a index card . I got the card back and magazine back signed , but on the index card he wrote
" Thanks for you interesd in my career ! I do not make a it a policy sign blank cards or blank pieces of paper ! "
I thought it was cool .
Wrote to Nancy Kerrigan once and recieved autograph , then at christmas time for like 2 years after would get another in the mail.
One time at a meet and greet with some Montreal expos at this free signing to thank Vermont expo fans I had asked Michael Barrett to sign an already autographed insert card , and we got to chatting , and we chatted for a good amount of time , when another person finally got to him for his auto , I thanked him for his time , and he gave me 14 more signed postcards , that he had been signing while we were chatting . Was a cool night , lots of graphs .
