I know soccer is not everyone's bag but went to the final practice for the WNY Flash (Women's professional team)

Alex Morgan 5/5 (8x10 smudged a bit when she finished, oh well; four 4x6's came out great)
Marta 4/4
Christine Sinclair 5/5 (even changed pens to sign 2 in silver)
Caroline Seger 3/3
Candace Chapman 2/2
Ali Riley 2/2
Maurine 1/1
Kaley Fountain 1/1

All players were totally accomodating and happy to sign. It was refreshing. They actually approach you without asking and say hi.

Only other IP event this summer I got was Edmonton Oiler Taylor Hall 10/7 (2 pucks, 5 photos and added 3 signed 5x7 postcards) at a hockey shop.
Line was light so I went 3 times.

I'll update hockey and football in Buffalo with this thread.

I have an IP story from today:
Went to get the WNY Flash (Women's pro soccer) after practice and had my worst IP experience ever...from soccer player Carli Lloyd (who also is US National Team Member). I asked her to sign, she said nothing, took the sharpie, and signed the manilla folder between the two 4x6 pictures I had, and caught just enough of each picture to ruin them...I get it, if you don't want to sign, you don't have to..but that was the worst experience I have ever had with anyone, and I do a lot of hockey and some NFL.

But before that, I got (US Women's National Team and FIFA Worldwide Player of the Year) Abby Wambach 3/3 (all pictures), and she couldn't have been nicer.
