Got Fat Albert?! Nice job! Do share the story.

Ok haha well several of us were waiting at the hotel after the game (it was the first series the Angels were in Minneapolis with him) and we were waiting for the bus. First I yelled for CJ Wilson and he signed for me and smiled at me because I'm a girl and I had a non baseball game photo. Then Albert came right off and the guys waited for me to yell since they thought he'd be more willing to sign for a girl. Sure enough he was because as soon as I yelled Albert he came straight to me and signed my 8x10 and signed for several others too!! Then the 2nd series he signed several times after the game but it was a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time for me so didn't get him then
