met former Heisman trophy winner Desmond Howard at one of my company meetings about 2 months ago

this is my usual "hey, i'm taking a pic with a famous person pose".



here is what he signed for me.



i work for Hibbett Sports. they give us these mini helmets so i normally just use them for sigs and keep them in my office

I went to the Dallas Cowboys draft party in April.

D-Ware signing the helmet for my son

a few Longhorns were at a Round Rock Express baseball game (local minor league team) throwing out the 1st pitch and signing autos.

Quan Cosby signed football and 8x10





Roy Miller signed an 8x10



Chris Ogbonnaya signed an 8x10 (love the look of that ladies face)

met Adrian Peterson this weekend and he signed a jersey and mini helmet for me. probably my sickest success so far.

[Steelcurtain1933]

Very nice haul. I could use Irvin at some point. Have you ever had any luck getting Limas Sweed or Casey Hampton?

[neverfinished94]

well thats it for this year so far. i would love to hear some feedback from everyone.

i display most of my memorabilia in my home theatre/man room. it is far from finished and i still need to finish framing some jerseys for the walls.

thanks! no luck with either of those guys. i would really like to have both on my UT helmet. i just really starting collecting in person autos in February.

[plum29]

i should move up to Dallas also.

i like it there.

[neverfinished94]

i actually live about 2.5 hours from dallas and about an hour from Austin. i wish i lived closer to dallas. there are so many signings going on it is insane

[Nascarfan12]

Awesome thread. I wish the Jets were more fan friendly. Seems like the Cowboys are always out and about to meet the fans.

Mike

[drew78580]

[DevilsBrew]

Did you notice how all the old time players sign their names and all the new guys scribble theirs .......Wonder why its that way anyone up for an answer

[donbeebe]

Sweet stuff!
This hobby gets addicting!
I was lucky enough to meet Drew Pearson, Tony D, and Randy White all in one weekend a few years ago. Got a sweet pic of me and Tony.

the chances are better of you winning the lottery than getting Emmitt's autograph for free. Good eye! that is Nate Newton. unfortunately Nate doesnt sign when he is on Michael's show.

i didnt. he pulled up with the cast and they told us he could only sign that photo. i had a jersey for him to sign, oh well. i'm sure i will get him again one of these days

[neverfinished94]

i went to Cedric Benson's youth football camp today in Austin. The only players that i knew where Benson, Quan Cosby and Jamaal Charles.

i didnt have Cosby sign anything since i have him on so many things already. i did add Benson and Charles to my fullsize Longhorn helmet which almost has no space left. my son added both of them to his Longhorn football which is severly smeared (but he loves it anyways)

Quan Cosby

Jamaal Charles



Cedric Benson
