I again requested an autograph for my birthday this year. Barry Sanders was my choice of athlete that was signing at the Tristar Houston Autograph Show in January. We had fun, Gavin was really good considering he was a super tired little boy who didn't have a nap that day. Gavin got a smile from Barry as we went through the line to have him sign my football.
No pictures allowed with the players this year....you can now have your picture taken with the players for something crazy like $100! This might be my last year doing getting autographs at this show. It has just become a huge money grab for Tristar - everything from charging $6 to mail tickets to me, to charging for parking, to less and less personal interaction with the players has left a bad taste in my mouth about the whole thing.
Greed ruins everything.
