HAIL SKINS 4 LIFE!!!!!!!!!

Seriously fellas, do die-hard Skins fans shell out the bucks to go to these autograph events? Hero-worship is cool but at what price does our loyalty draw the line?

I'm just curious, has anyone gone to such an event? What kind of cash was spent? Finally, was it any fun and would you go again?!

Not hero worship, yet having a piece of something you can call you own signed by a pro, HOF, favorite player in his day, etc. 8+10 color autographed framed photos look great in a sports rec room and helmets looks even better. So if you have something you treasure and the signer is a favorite player from your fan past, why not, if you can spare the cash.

As far as cash goes... it really depends on who's autograph your getting.... Riggo and DG get 175 to sign a big item (I can't believe DG gets that much).... you can get other guys alot cheaper at smaller shows. The thing this weekend has guys from 20 bucks up to 150ish or more. I know there are some guys here in my town (Fredericksburg) that run signings much cheaper..... for example, You can get Pat Fischer & Ron McDole's autograph next weekend (3-24) for only 10 bucks for both:
Leader In Sports - Public Signings
There is a link with that information... I already put one on here for the one this weekend

Sure do. I go just about every year to the CSA show. Especially if they have skins players attending. I plan on Going sunday I want to pick up a Mike Thomas photo. Check out the Warpath gribs "Redskins Room" you will see my collection that i have been working on..
