I made the trip to Reading tonight to meet the Hardcore legend. I made sure I was able to leave work a little early as I had an hour drive and doors opened at 6. I figured Mick would be signing after throwing out a first pitch. Upon going to get the address for the stadium they posted that doors would open at 5 because of Foley and he started to sign at 5:30. He stopped from about 6:45 to 7:05 to throw out the pitch. Afterwards he resumed signing. I didn't get there until about 6:10. Mick had a line at hat point that had about 200-250 people. I'd say all in all there were about 350-400. people there to meet him. One autograph was free but you could pay for him to sign a provided sock or 8x10. Pictures were also extra. I really wanted another picture with Mick since he had his newly won TNA title. Mick was very friendly as always and joked that it was his first win in the last decade. He even joked that he daughter told him that he never won. I think the best part of the entire thing was that I got Foley to sign my Lockdown poster. He actually drew stitches on his eye from when he busted himself open. If you ever get the chance to meet Mick, take it, as he's always awesome.  |

Awesome man. I met him at an autograph signing thing for Universal annual pass holders at an Orlando event a few months ago. Luckily my friend has an annual pass and I was able to get in and meet him, especially seeing as he is like in my top 3 all time favorites.

Back in 1995 or 1996, I took him to an appearance at a WalMart in Cleveland OH. The thing is, we were told the wrong WalMart to go to so everyone at the store was totally freaked out as to who he was and why anyone would want his autograph. So as we were leaving the store, he swiped a Snickers bar and we left. Then in the parking lot, he nearly rear ended a car driving too fast. I thought to myself, "This Cactus Jack guy really is insane, this is NO work"
