    Meeting Bo Jackson

    Getting ready to go to a signing in a couple weeks with Bo Jackson. He is one of my most favorite athletes of all time. So if you had one unique question to ask Bo what would it be?

    i have also heard this so before you ask him a question that could possibly offend him, make sure your item is signed.

    Ask him for his address so the rest of use can pester him with TTM request.

    Where is the signing? I read an article recently that said Bo was going to retire from football after the 1990 season even if he hadn't gotten hurt...I'd ask about that.

    I met Bo Jackson at a free signing last year, and he wasn't very friendly, but wasn't gruff either. Someone asked him to inscribe All-Star Game MVP on a baseball, and he said he would for $100, which seemed odd.
    Then, after everyone went through the line, I tried to get back in line, but they threw me out, saying Bo doesn't want anyone to get two, even though everyone that was there had gone through already, and there was almost no one left with a half hour still to go. Anyway, he was one of my favorite players, and he lives here in Illinois, in fact, he was on the board of trustees of a bank in Illinois awhile back as well.

    I've worked with Bo at an AU Heisman signing in February. Don't waste your breath asking questions, he won't give you an answer worth a damn.

    I sat with him taking the autograph fix for 2+ hours and he hardly responded to any question

    I got Bo a couple years ago at the National and I asked him a question about the celebrity softball game and he didn't respond. I wouldn't say it was my worse experience, but it wasn't the friendliest either.
