Martin Brodeur

This is defiantly my new corner stone to my autograph collection. As I attended the annual Dave And Adam's Card World Black Friday Sale and entered their contest to win some cool prizes. When I received an email mid-December I thought for sure it was just the email giving me my free $10 gift card everyone got just for coming. Instead it was an email telling me I had won probably, if not, the best prize they were giving away. I couldn't believe I actually won the signed Brodeur jersey. I now own a piece of rich memorabilia of the future HHOFer and the goaltender who owns most of the goaltending records, which most appear unbreakable. It is now hanging on my wall in a nice display case away from light where I can see it every time I enter my room. An amazing piece to have in my collection. Brodeur just recently tied another NHL record the other night for most shut outs against a team.

Jordan Burroughs Autograph

A couple of nights ago I had the pleasure of driving up to Elma, NY and getting to play touch football game with 2012 Olympic Gold medalist Jordan Burroughs! Burroughs is a wrestler from New Jersey, who won the 2009 and 2011 NCAA wrestling title for Nebraska, then went on to win gold in this summers London Olympics. After we played football for about a half hour he went and grabbed some photos and signed them for us! Great night!

Cody Ross

Today I received the Boston Red Sox fan pack which included a 5x7 photo of Cody Ross which appears to have an authentic signature, not pre-print. Its hard to tell but looks real.

Wallenda Crosssing Niagara Falls, June 15, 2012
Daredevil Tight Rope Walker Nik Wallenda did his first autograph appearance on the U.S. side of the Falls today at the Factory Outlet Mall on in Niagara Falls, New York. Hundreds of fans came to meet their hero as they flocked the signing. Unfortunately, security was very tight and only aloud Nik to stay for his scheduled hour and a half. He signed provided 8x10 and other items people brought. Some unique pieces were Newspaper articles, Paintings, posters, and t-shirts. For those of you who don't know who Nik Wallenda is, he is 7th generation tight top walker which originated by his Great Grand Father Karl Wallenda and the Flying Wallendas. Nik Wallenda most recentally crossed the world famous Niagara Falls on a 2-inch wire (Only 3 pennines wide!). Unfortunally I arrivied at the signing late and was unable to get a signature. However, I manged to get one of the 8x10 He was signing, unsigned. I hope I eventaully get to meet Mr. Wallenda as he is a very great guy and very inspirational. Here's the 8x10 he was signing today:
