TRW still hasn't posted his and I'm gonna post mine. Anyone who wants to should, I love seeing that stuff.
I still have to crop/upload some stuff and I didn't want the first post filled with pics if it's possible others will post their stuff.

I want to. It's just such a pain to pull out all the cards, take pictures, then upload them. I'll try and get around to it soon.

Exactly. Watch neither of us post our stuff in this thread while it's on the front page. Maybe I will later tonight if I'm home early.

I used to take one to every jets game so i got a few on each. Some of the names are Sanchez, Cotchery, D brick, Mangold, lito sheppard on one i know, i think i got Braylon on one not sure, Damien Woody, Brad Smith, Bart Scott,Kerry Rhodes,Eric Mangini. I used to have a list.
Anyone have any Game worn items? I collect that stuff as well and have a few Jets jerseys and helmets. the helmets are really the good stuff.

My autographs mainly pertain to my sportscard collection. But I do have a Minnesota Vikings helmet signed by Jared Allen, Visante Shaincoe and Chad Greenway.
My NBA sportscard collection has autos from Kobe, Carmelo, Amare, CP3, KLove, Durantula, Ray Allen and Russell Westbrook among many other B-listers
I also have several UFC autos from fighters like Brock Lesnar, Anderson Silva, BJ Penn, Big Nog and Mike Swick

I'd like to hear that story. That's really great that you got him though. I would like to get him, I'd pay as long as it's in person. Ive got a Jerry Rice 8x10 thats autographed. Ill get another later this month when he's in town. Ive also got a Tommy John signed baseball. Thats all for me lol you should get the 49ers mini helmet this time, or a ball (they can fade though).

I've got some practice worn stuff like wristbands and gloves. I've got Eli's quarterback wristband, he gave it to me directly. Also have some of Justin Tuck and Ahmad Bradshaw's stuff. I also have a headband from Jordan Hill when he was on the Knicks but he's not a big name.

The problem is he's coming in to toss the coin for a High School football game (yea its that big of a deal lol) so Im not sure how accessible he's going to be and I dont want to lug around a helmet for a few hours. He's been my favorite player all my life so I really wanna meet him.

You have one of the best collections I've seen.
Really impressed by the Vlad, Montana, Elway, Young, Peyton Manning, Iverson and Barkley.
Got any stories about those signings?
Who's on the basketball? Carmelo?

The basketball is Charles Barkley. I got both the card and the basketball autographed at a Hawks/Rockets game in 1998 I think it was. I finally got his attention during warmups, and he came over and signed both for me. He laughed when I asked if he knew he was playing against Chucky Brown tonight, and he repeated his infamous, "Who the hell is Chucky Brown."
I got Vlad at a Braves game during batting practice. I think he was surprised that a Braves fan was asking for an Expos autograph, since the stadium was 80% empty. He didn't say much, but was pretty nice.
Joe Montana, I actually got several cards signed by him. He was in Atlanta doing a Hanes promotional appearance near where I worked. I went there, and surprisingly it wasn't very crowded, and he seemed bored, and talked to me a lot. His wife Jennifer was there too, and she is smoking hot, and was also very nice. He signed whatever I wanted.
Elway, my buddy got for me as a joke. He lives in Denver, and met him at one of his car dealerships. He told Elway how much I hate him, and said he got a good laugh about it, and he sent me the card in the mail with a printout of the box score from the Broncos/Falcons Superbowl.
Steve Young I met at a Falcons game where ESPN was taping. I caught him during pre-game during a commercial break when he got up to get something near the sideline. He was really cool.
Peyton Manning I got when I went to a Colts training camp in Indiana with a friend who is from there. He was in a hurry, so we didn't get to talk much. But he did drip some sweat on me off of his nose. It was pretty gross.
Allen Iverson I got at a Hawks game as well. I yelled out that I had a question for him, and he said that he was the answer. He came over, signed it, and then got called back over by another player, I can't recall who exactly that was.

I'm still in the hunt to try and get Iverson and Barkley but those windows are closing for in person without paying. Iverson probably won't do signings/appearances anyway.
It's pretty damn good that you got Iverson, I heard he can be tough.
Kinda funny how Barkley and Carmelo's sigs look so similar.
I'm gonna post my stuff soon. Probably just take pics off the phone like you have.
What was stolen from you? Anything worth mentioning?

I haven't seen Carmello's signature before, so it is hard to say. I heard Barkley is best to get at the golf tournaments.
Actually, yeah, I had a lot of great autographed cards stolen unfortunately.
O.J. Simpson, Karl Malone, David Robinson, Michael Jordan, Troy Aikman, Bruce Smith, Reggie White, Herschel Walker, Chris Mullin, John Stockton, Derrick Thomas, Michael Irvin, Jim Everett, Art Monk, and a bunch more.

That's terrible, especially about the Jordan and Reggie White/Derrick Thomas. Any idea what ever happened to that stuff?
Tell the Jordan story if you want.
I also noticed your Flutie sig is pretty sharp, as are the baseball cards with the legendary players.
The more I look at your Peyton Manning the more I am impressed with it because you got him to write his last name pretty clearly. Being around Eli, I found out that he can't do that unless it's through Steiner or another contracted signing because he signed over partial rights to his sales. I think Peyton did, too, later on in his career.

I think Peyton did, too, later on in his career. Yeah, I still get a little sad when i think about it sometimes. I am pretty positive one of my brother's friends stole them when i was out of town for a week. he is the only one who knew about them really. It sucks, because so many were hard to get them, and even harder now. Jordan I actually got thanks to a friend of mine in the early 90's. The Bulls were in town, and my friend worked at a golf course/country club, and saw Jordan come in that morning, and crapped his pants. He called me and said Jordan is here. I went up there, and waited in the clubhouse until he finished his golf. Didn't recognioze the people with him, but he was pretty cool, signing autographs for all of the employees, golfers, and a few random people like myself there. he didn't say much, and honestly, I didn't either because I was pretty much in awe. Manning was in his second year when he signed that I think. Usually if they sign when they are young, it is pretty legible. But later on it becomes a mess. Vick was the same way. I got Vick as a rookie, and it was the full name and perfectly legible. A couple of years later, and you can barely read it as MV7. A lot of the old baseball players I got at a signing in Atlanta, where they had many old ballplayers there. I only paid like $100 for an unlimited pass, and ended up getting a ton of great signatures, and a chance to talk some baseball with some real legends, a lot of whom are no longer with us now.

I have very few in-person autographs, but have 100s of autographed cards in my sportscard collection.
