Yeah, I know, most people hate Kentucky basketball outside of this state. So be it. We all have our sports fandom and this is mine. I've been a fan since birth but never really tried to get autographs until after my son was born. He's showed interest in the team every since he was old enough to hold his head up so I started taking him to meet the players around that time and get autographs to decorate his walls. He loves it so we've done it every year since he was born (2011). I figured I'd share what we've managed to get over the years. Some of them were from organized signings after the guys have left/announced they were leaving for the NBA. Some of them were just "right place/right time" sort of things since it's a not uncommon to randomly run into them at the mall. With that said, if you have any autographs from your choice of team, pop them in this thread. I've grown to love stuff like this just from seeing my sons excitement when he meets players he's seen on TV. These guys have always been extrememly nice to him. They pick him up, hug him, talk to him etc and he's always so happy. The things these guys do when they're here and even when they leave is just unbelievable. That's why we do it.
Jonah with his basketball signed by Devin Booker. We actually won a drawing for this at one of the signings
This is the weirdest thing we've gotten signed. It became a thing around here that Devin Booker looked like the kid from "Up". So I figured "why not" and got him to sign our Blu-ray of UP. He cracked up.
