I never jump in front of a kid. I always wait (and sometimes get passed by because of it).
I guess it's the "kid" in me that enjoys it. Plus, all the autographs i have have stories to go with them, which makes it fun to look at the photos/things i have in the off season.
LJ (my wife) went up with me to the last open practice Tuesday.
I had a picture i took of A.J. Hawk his first day as a Packer. He was signing, (for everyone) and i waited and told him the story of the photo and he signed it for me. When he handed it back to me, i realized my Sharpie marker pooped out on me, and asked him if he could sign it again....he said "Sure!" and used someone elses marker.....it still didn't work! LOL! So he says "I'm going to try it in a different spot on the photo" and gets a pretty good signature the third time. It was nice of him, and kind of funny too.
I could tell stories about all my autographs. Some pretty funny stuff.
I know not all enjoy or even understand it. But if you saw my collection, you'd probably enjoy seeing it. Plus, i TRY to get pictures that i myself have taken signed, which of course then makes them one of a kind. It's not always possible, but that's one of the things i try to do.

I think the only autographs I've gotten since I was a kid was from a rock band on a T-Shirt. They're not even really visible now after washing and such. The memory of meeting them was cool, though, and I suppose the shirt is a token of that memory.

Thanks Dodd!
Plus my collection has grown since you saw it!
To me, the challenge of getting one of your favorite players to sign is part of the fun.
Back in 2005 when Rodgers first got here, he was in the player's parking lot heading into the locker room after practice. Everyone was yelling for him to come over and sign for us, and he kept his head down and just kept walking.
Then, i started singing the "Mr. Rodger's Neighborhood" song at the top of my lungs. He stopped, turned and pointed at me, saying "If you don't stop that, i'm not going to come over and sign!" With that, everyone started laughing, and he came right over and signed my mini helmet.
It was pretty funny stuff!
