Local Indy show last night had Fred Ottman,Bob Holly, Ron Simmons, and Jimmy Hart all advertised for the show and to sign. I got there just as the doors opened and waited in no lines. I didn’t bother to stay for the show as I had other plans later in the night.
First up I saw Jimmy Hart and walked up to him. Told me I needed one autograph and shook his hand. He was talking to some girl who was also on the show and I didn’t really interact with me. He asked if I wanted it personalized and I said yeah. Got my encyclopedia signed and left his table.
Next was Ottman. I walked to his handler said I need 3 autos and can you do a deal? He said he can do 20$ per auto which is what the table said .I didn’t argue or try harder for the deal and just agreed. Shook his hand and talked for a few minutes. Said he loved all his gimmicks and even though Shockmaster failed he liked it because it made a lot of money. Talked about his Mattel and Jakks figures and how Earthquake called him and said how they gave him a Yokozuna body. When he got his he said I did too and they said they needed weight watchers. I said his Mattel’s came out much better and he said how cool it was to work with them and how they flew him out and how Bill and the designers are all wrestling fans. He was a nice guy
Next up was Bob Holly. I didn’t know what to expect with him. I handed his handler the 20$ and got just his main entry signed. I told him my favorite gimmick of his was Bob Sparky Plug in which he gave me this eh not me and went on to say he had to start somewhere and pay the bills which we laughed about. We talked about car racing for a good few minutes and couldn’t have been any nicer of a guy. Nothing but positives about him.
The last meet of the night was Ron Simmons. I walked up handed his handler 25$ and approached him. I was only going to have him sign his main entry in the encyclopedia because I was low on cash. He said to me let me ask you this? You’re here now right? I said yeah, he goes don’t it make sense for me to sign my name everywhere in the book? I’ll do it for 15$ extra. So I said screw it and went ahead. He told the guy he was doing me the favor and just charge me that. I forgot his ministry of darkness one and he opened to it and said didn’t see this one huh and laughed. Really nice guy. Said he loved being in the nation and that was what he had the most fun doing.
After all is said and done it was a very nice couple of meets. Everyone was VERY Fan friendly and took their time talking and interacting with everyone. I didn’t get any photo ops because i hate taking pics for one and 2, I didn’t wanna spend even more than I had on autos. Starting this encyclopedia was a good idea and I look forward to adding more. Here’s some pics of it
