Hey,
I was just wondering if anyone here made it out to the Bret Hart autograph signing at Wal-Mart last night.
I was there and I am so happy I got the chance to meet Bret Hart again for the 2nd time. The first time I met him was at the BCW WrestleFest '05 show earlier on this year.
Since you could only get 1 item signed, I chose to get the DVD set signed on the cover. It looks great.
Even though I had to wait around for a while, I think it was worth the wait. Not too often will I get the chance to meet a legend like Bret Hart and I wasn't about to pass that opprotunity up.
For those that didn't know, Bret Hart was at the Wal-Mart located on 2525 St. Clair Ave. West in Toronto and if you missed out on it, that's too bad.
I feel so sorry for the hundreds of fans that were all lined up in the underground parking area that didn't get the chance to meet Bret. They had to turn them all away.
When I got there, they were handing out limited numbered wristbands and I got #163 out of a guaranteed 400.
The people who were lucky enough to snag a wristband were guaranteed an autograph and anyone else after that 400th person should consider themselves VERY fortunate.
Bret was originally supposed to sign from 6 p.m. - 8 p.m., but he stayed about 20 minutes longer which was nice to give some of the other fans a chance to meet him.
Also, when you get right up to Bret, you have a total of 10 seconds, if that, to say something quick and get a handshake from him, which is what I did and that's about it.
I only wish you could've got a few more items signed, but since there was such a HUGE turn-out, I understand why you could only get 1 item signed and that is to give the others a chance.
Since I only had my cellphone and about 2 seconds to take pics, here are a few that I took. Sorry, if the quality is a bit crap, but hey, it's the best I could do in the little time I had.
I also took a few video clips as well since my phone was able to record video & sound.
Anyways, it was great meeting Bret again and if anyone else made it out to meet Bret last night, please share your story. Thanks.
