Pistons vs. Raptors 4/17/07

Did my final NBA regular season game last night. Last night brought in the Toronto Raptors. They were not to shabby. Here are the results:

Pistons vs. Raptors 4/17/07

Raptors

Jose Calderon 21 cards!!! ("Do you want me to sign all these cards??? Me, "No, you don't have to I can offer you a few if you would like." Jose: "No, no that's fine your okay your fine.")
Juan Dixon 1 Mini 2002 NCAA Final Four Ball, 1 card (Me: "Can I please get a photo with you???" Juan: "No I can't I apologize. I have to go in for a meeting.")
T.J. Ford 2 cards
Luke Jackson 1 card
Darrick Martin 5 cards ("I am taking one card to keep kid. Can I do that if I sign the rest of your cards???" Me: "Okay go right ahead!!!")
Rasho Nesterovic 2 cards
Morris Peterson 1 card
Uros Slokar 1 Raptors Basketball
Pape Sow 2 cards
Sam Mitchell 1 card
Alex English 1 card ("What card do you want me to sign kid, I am only doing one card???")
Chuck Swarsky 1 3x5 Index card, 1 Raptors Basketball

That is all I have to share with what I got from this team. Jose Calderon is definiately one of the more nicer players that I have met in the NBA!!! He basically signs whatever you got for him and is very polite to all the fans that wants him to sign stuff for them. What a class act he was for this game!!!
As for Chris Bosh, he was a jerk this time around and refused all requests at this game. Kris Humphries signed 5 before the game, but I was not one of the lucky 5 to get an auto from him this time around. Oh well, there is always next season!!! That is all with my NBA autograph quests for this NBA regular season. The experiences and adventures were very enjoyable that I was able to have this NBA season!!! Thanks alot for looking!!!

nice job man. 21 cards signed by calderon, sweet.

Seems like the international players who took a hard, long road to get to the NBA are always more appreciative of the fans. Just my 2 cents.

That is awesome!! Well done on all the sigs, just to get to a live game would be awesome enough for some of us, but to get sigs too, that's the best!

Congrats, and thanks for sharing.

Perhaps you could post some scans up??

Very nice pickups mate.

Alright guys here are some scans:

That is all I am going to share. Thanks keep those great comments coming!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the kinds words.

Yeah if I were able to post here earlier in the season, you all would of been amazed at what I else I been obtaining. I was wondering if I should do that or not since that my in person autograph experiences have also took me through downtown Cleveland for the first time, and chasing after the Pistons in downtown Orlando. Since I got such great responses with these threads, I was wondering if I should post all the games I did starting from back in October 2006. lmk if you all want to read but I will have alot of threads to put up.

Love the t.j's I want 1 lol

nice work, I would love to go to a game one day and get some auto's! The closest I have ever gotten was getting Hakeem's auto in Melbourne at the nba jam session years ago!!

Wow that is amazing, I actually did get Hakeem once over in Toronto about 5 years ago actually. That was in the ancient days of autographing I did way before message boards lol....

yeah I actually gave the autographed picture away to my cousin a few years ago because I wasn't into basketball then!

Very awesome hearing of your experiences! Sounds like a lot of good fun! If only it was a job description and we could get paid for doing that stuff lol.
