I went to the Orlando Magic Select-a-Seat event yesterday hoping that i would get every players autograph but it turned out that you had to buy a ticket plan to meed Dwight Howard and Jameer Nelson. I didnt care about Jameer that much but i had a 8X10 of me and Dwight from a previous event that i was gonna have him sign, i thought that would have been cool. but i wasnt bout to spend $250 to get his autograph, i might just send it in to him. Brian Hill and Grant Hill did not even show up for the event I had to leave at 2:30 so i missed Darko Milicic and JJ redick, but i didnt not have and JJ cards to get signed anyways.
But here is what i did get:
Got 3 From Bo, Couldnt wait to meet him, He was really nice.
Got 3 from Pat, but gave one to my friend(in previous pic)
Got 3 also but again gave one to my friend. These guys are all really nice
Looked like a great day and fairly quiet too by the looks of it. Mr Hill wan't allowed to leave the old peoples home for the day so that explains that.
$250 is a bit rich for an auto at an event for the FANS to meet and greet. Don't these guys get paid well enough already??
Great pics and thanks for sharing them. Nice hoad of autos BTW.
Magicman- alot of them were really nice, prob the nicest were Nick Anderson and Bo Outlaw and Pat Garrity and Travis diener and Keith Bogans, i know i listed alot of players, but they were all really nice. nobody was too bad of a snob except for battie, he was nice but he was so nonchalant and didnt care how he signed the cards.
As someone else said...thanks for sharing that with us!! It's a bit like 6 degrees of separation...you've brought us all a little bit closer to our favourite NBA players.
And also....how cool does the stadium look??
Mate, that would have been such a cool experience, even if there wasnt any superstars like dwighty. all us aussies are so jealous that you guys can do the meet and greets.
Thanks for sharing mate, fantastic photos and lots of great sigs! I for one hope the Magic have a great year (oh and I hope Hill does too! Pity he wasnt there ..)
