So, I am puzzled. You guys will actually go wait in line and pay money for someone to sign something of yours? Really? Why? What do you do with it when you get it home? Wow, I have a million questions about this stuff. Are you guys who are doing this adults? 

[SunMo]

i am puzzled that you arrived at that conclusion from this thread.

i never understood the value of an autograph either..a picture w someone is cool, but to have their name writtin down on a piece of paper? no thanks. to wait in line for it? definitely no thanks.

Why would you want a deadbeat sports writers autograph?

exactly my point..what the farg do you think that guy did with that plate? nothing, thats what.

at least we had a semi cool story to tell from it..

yeah but i have to admit, cunningham is my all-tme fav eagles player and at one time (jersey disappeared) i had his jersey and it was signed by him at training camp.

but paying for another autograph is kind of crazy.

[ice grillin you]

i think you should keep better tabs on your favorite players jersey

It's a hobby. Memorabilia in general is what I enjoy and autos are a small part of that for me. Some of the autographs I got for free and some I had to pay for at a show or something. I've seen a few athletes/celebs in public and have had quick conversations with them but never asked for their autograph....just seems a bit tacky to do that on their personal time. Ifi catch them at a game or a show, great. Otherwise, no big deal.

BigEd, aka "Ebay Dude", thanks to Freddie Mitchell is an autograph guy.

I was when I was younger...anyone wanna buy Rodney Peete or Jay Fiedler and Mark McMillian?

My boy is a huge autograph guy. He is a regional manager for a sporting goods store so he has hookups and also travels to all signings and stuff between Austin, San Antonio and DFW. He made over $5k in profit last year in selling stuff on ebay.
