^ damn.. if only I had a MOC hasbro to get signed...these days i only want to get cool stuff signed by the old guys... not really feeling just getting a magazine cover / encyclopedia, etc signed..
But overall, if you are in the GTA and willing to drive, you can get some nice autographs within the span of a week:
Demolition on June 3rd in Burlington
Bret Hart, Brutus Beefcake, Greg Valentine, Virgil and Lanny Poffo June 9th in Niagara
and now Nasty Boys June 10th in Toronto

I just checked Mapquest and for me, it says it'll be about a 56 minute trip to get there, so I'm not sure if I'll be going or not. I mean, if you factor in what it'll cost for gas to get there and back, plus entry fee, plus the $20 to meet both, that's at least $50-$60, for me anyway.
I'd love to meet them, as I have their MOC WWF Hasbro Tag-Team and I think it would look wicked signed, but I just don't know. We'll see....

^ have fun whoever goes to this on sunday.. if i had a WWF Hasbro Moc tag team, i probably would go... but dont feel like driving the 30ish min and paying the $20 + entry fee just to get a superstars book signed by them...maybe ill look through my coliseum videos and see if there is a good one with nasty boys on the cover.. just got a nice VHS signed by demolition last weekend.

I didn't go to the signing because my brother saved me the trip. Apparently, there was some small local wrestling event in Chatham the other day and he went to it. He said The Nasty Boys were in attendance and set up a booth for autographs and such after the event. To my surprise, he got me a personalized 8x10 signed by both Knobbs & Sags!! Granted, it isn't my WWF Hasbro 2-pack, but still a signed item by The Nasties!! He saved me the 2-hour round trip, lots of money in gas that it would've cost to get there and back, the cost of the entry fee and the cost of getting something signed. My brother told me they were asking the same $20 for both, but he told them he only had $10 on him. He said The Nasties paused for a bit, but ended up signing for the $10. My brother also said Knobbs is huge now and way out of shape and when he went to get into the ring and step through the ropes, he was already winded just by doing that. Lol.... Knobbs did his classic "Pit Stop" as well to the heel wrestler, he said. Here's the 8x10 he got for me. I think it's great!!  If the event today wasn't so damn far away, I would've went. It would've cost me way too much in the end to make the trip today. |

^^ too bad that u cant get that MOC Hasbro signed.. i think u should trek out to it...says 56 minutes, probably 40 minutes if you are driving.. probably $20 gas, $20 signature, $3 entry fee..not TOO bad..if i had the MOC hasbro, i would definitely go..
i went to the demolition signing in burlington last weekend and it was about the same length of drive that you have to this one.. took me about 45-50 min.. but well well worth it!
u go to the dr flea signings right? this isnt too much further.. maybe 10 min.. and its very close off the highway!
demolition were great! and cheap... a quarter of the price of the nasty boys lol

^ I actually talked to a buddy of mine and talked him into going tomorrow. He doesn't care for the autographs, he's just basically coming along for the ride because it's at least something to do.
So, I WILL be bringing my MOC WWF Hasbro 2-pack with me to get signed and that's the only item I'll be getting signed. I'm looking forward to meeting Knobbs & Sags!!

My Report.
They were two hours late! My dad and I could see Andrew Goodwin fustrated and disasppointed. Tbh, It was funny. He seemed really bored when I got there and the Nasty Boys werent there yet. When they finally came, I filmed everything when they got out of their car. I brought my Hogan Knows Best DVD cover to get signed by Knobbs, and my encyclopedia to get signed by them both. Jerry Saggs signed my E, and said that the DVD cover would be an extra $20, I said it was only for Knobbs. Jerry Saggs asked Brian if he 'did this' and showed the DVD cover. Brian responded, "yeah!" and quickly grabbed it. He was laughing and smiling at it the whole time. He stared at it for a good minute. Brian then went on to sign my Encyclopedia. I asked if the dvd cover was going to be extra and he said "yup, 10 bucks" I responded by saying "oh, then that's okay, just the encyclopedia". My dad watched Hogan Knows Best with me, so he knows that Brian was on the show, my dad said "I like the way you fart and jump on the bed in the show!" As I'm about to leave, Brian quickly said, "give it to me!" and he signed it! Brian was nice, but Jerry on the other hand, was very quiet to me.
Here's my video:
I also saw another star at the show. I saw Mr. Old School! He was right in front of me in line! I didnt say anything because I didnt want to look like a fool if it wasnt him. My guess was proven right, when he got out his Hasbro set. I took pics of the Nasty Boys signing the set for him, I PM'd him. All in all, a great day!

^ Yeah, major thanks for TheChamp617 for snapping a few quick pics. Here they are: Me standing in line:  Jerry Sags signing it first:  Brian Knobbs signing it after Sags:  Yeah, Champ, you should've kept the cam rolling because when they got to their table and were setting up, I overheard Knobbs say to Andrew Goodwin (the nerdy guy in the hat, jersey and glasses) that yesterday he didn't call the person who was in charge of looking after them and it left them in a pretty akward situation. Knobbs looked pretty pissed and gave Goodwin a pretty evil look for a second or two and Goodwin was stumbling on his words because he didn't know what to say. There was a lady that I believe came in with The Nasties and was at their table and I again overheard Knobbs say to the lady "I'm so pissed off right now" and he set down his bag and pretty much began signing right away. Sure, they were late, but that's to be expected I think. Me and my buddy weren't waiting around too long. Maybe about 20-25 mins and then The Nasties showed up. Jerry Sags was talking about the 2-pack and saying how rare it is and said it was their first figures and talked to Knobbs about how his son Jack still plays with the Knobbs figure. Knobbs thought they were Mattel, but I corrected him and said Hasbro and he said he wasn't sure if they were still in business and I said I think so. Lol. Knobbs seemed happy to see that 2-pack again and was happy to sign it. Man, he got big. He put on some serious weight. He's got to get that under control before it's too late. It's not good to be that big. Not good for your heart. I really hope he can get back to a decent healthy weight, like Sags. He looked good for his age. Here's my newly signed WWF Hasbro Nasty Boys Tag-Team 2-pack:  Close-up of the signatures:  Sags signed "Nasty Boys! and his name" and Knobbs signed his name and "Stay Nasty!" I think it looks great signed. I really like the blue they signed it with. I'll be holding onto this baby for a while to come, that's for sure. Overall, it was a great experience meeting the former WWF & WCW Tag-Team champions of the world!! |

^ lol.. jerks for being 2 hours late lol.. whenever i got o autograph signings, i almost always go near the end of the show, because of things like this..
still cool to meet them and get your stuff signed... looks like u guys had a good time.. i was free, and could of went, but wanted something nicer to get signed but they dont have any coliseum video cover or any WWF magazien with their cover (maybe a program but i dont have) so i didnt want to make the trek just to get an old superstars magazine signed
