I had no advanced knowledge of this. I am currently hanging out at my friend's house downstate tonight. This evening I decided to head out to the local Buffalo Wild Wings that is near my friend's house in the area to have what I thought would be a normal dinner. When I arrived there to eat, I saw a local Detroit Sports Radio Station and a couple people in Lions gear walk around and I did not really think to much about it. About 5 minutes later, I see a familar grapher with a big helmet that has a bunch of Detroit Lions signatures on it already walking around. Then a waitress comes to take my order, I proceeded to ask her what was going on at this Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant tonight. She went to find out and tell me that Matthew Stafford was here. I had a hard time believing this. After this waitress took my order, I glanced over to look and saw that it was actually Matthew Stafford!!! Since I left my bag with Detroit Lions mini helmets back at my friends house, I proceeded to call my friend to let him know what was going on tonight. 5 minutes later, he shows up with my Detroit Lions mini helmet. After I got done eating, I got in line and the manager was trying to tell everybody that Stafford was done signing tonight. When Stafford finished up with the radio show, he was about to leave and it became a mob scene when he was walking out the door. I proceeded to get right into the mess and came out with this!!!:

Lions

Matthew Stafford 1 Detroit Lions Mini Helmet!!! (This event came as a spur of the moment thing. Of all places I go to eat, of course Stafford appears there tonight. I HAD NO ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE OF THIS EVENT THAT WENT ON TONIGHT until I went there to eat. He used a black sharpie and did not switch pens in the mob scene. Item came out nice though.)

Of all places I go to eat, of course Stafford appears there and I know nothing about it until I end up going out to eat there. What are the odds of this happening again to where I get lucky lol???

Anyhow that is all I have to share for now. Still in complete shock over this right now. I will have a pic up of this item when I get back home to Traverse City later this week. Thanks alot for looking!!!

Next up for me: MLB: Chicago Cubs @ Detroit Tigers (TOMMOROW)...

Sometimes, I wish I was still back in MI. Missed out some great 'graphing opportunities like that one, which was advertised on the Lion's website. But oh well, killer IP success and congrats!!!
