Charles Barkley in Beckley, WV 1/30/11

[sigman101]

Was able to get up early on Sunday morning to make the two hour drive across the mountains and on the West Virginia Turnpike over to Beckley to attend this function that Charles Barkley was going to be speaking at. Given his signing history and habits in the past, I set my expectations real low on this and was hoping to get one autograph out of him. After he finished with interviews, they escorted Barkley into the room and table where he would be signing at. Once Barkley got to the table, he announced to the people waiting in line for autographs that he would do, "Two autographs per person." I was shocked to say the least given that you tube video I seen of him signing only one per in the past and calling people out for double dipping. Anyhow here is how I did with Barkley at this event over in Beckley:

Also at this event, I ended up having a nice lunch and was able to see Barkley speak. It was a great event to be at.

Otherwise that is all I got to share here for today. Thanks for looking!!!

Honestly, I was shocked when he announced to us in line that he would sign two items per person. It was nice to see him in a good mood for a change...
