Signed
Hall of Fame Football with current or future Hall of Fame Players I saved this football and only had it signed by current or future Hall of Fame players that I met. |

 1. Mel Bount Hall of Fame Inductee - 1989 |
 2. Phil Simms All-Time Great QB |
 6. Cris Carter All-Time Great Wide Receiver |
|||
| I met Mr. Blount at the Marriott in San Diego. His wife said under her breath "Don't get stuck here all day" and walked away. Needless to say, his mood changed, but he was kind enough to sign my ball. | Mr. Simms was being interviewed outside of the San Diego Convention Center. After his interview, he noticed that I was holding a football and he came over and signed it. He was a really polite gentleman. | Mr. Carter signed my football at the Marriott. At first, I tried to hand him an index card, but he said "I don't sign index cards". I'm glad that he had no problem signing my football. | |||
 4. Deacon Jones - Hall of Fame Inductee - 1980 |
 Deacon Jones and Me |
||||
| Mr. Jones was signing autographs at the NFL Experience. He seemed to be having a good time. He took my football and said "I don't know why anybody would sign their autograph and you couldn't read it. When I sign my autograph, I want EVERYBODY to be able to read it!" He was cool. | |||||
 5. Ronnie Lott - Hall of Fame Inductee - 2000 |
 Ronnie Lott and Me |
||||
| Mr. Lott was signing autographs for the U.S. Air Force at the NFL Experience. He really took his time and was in no hurry at all. When he took my ball he looked at it and said "Phil Simms. Hmm, that's cool." He was a very kind, soft spoken gentleman. | |||||
 7. Gary Anderson - All-Time Great Kicker |
 Gary Anderson and Me |
||||
| Mr. Anderson was signing for Best Buy at the NFL Experience. He was really nice and quite talkative, considering how many people were there for his autograph. It was great that he wasn't rushed and that he was willing to chat a little bit. | |||||
 3. Thurman Thomas - All-Time Great Running Back |
|||||
| Mr. Thomas was signing at the NFL Experience. He was very cordial, but unfortunately he didn't have much time to chat, because he had arrived a bit late. It was great to get his autograph, though. | |||||
