| Andre Brown, New York Giants Running Back Super Bowl XLVI Champion |
Andre Brown was drafted out of North Carolina State by the New York Giants in the 4th round (129th overall) of the 2009 NFL Draft. He missed his rookie season due to injury and was released. Brown played for several teams before returning to the Giants in 2011. He also played on the New York Giants Super Bowl XLVI championship team in 2012.
Andre Brown was signing autographs at the Paramus Nissan dealership in Paramus, NJ. Fans were asked to donate a brand new toy to receive an autograph. Donations benefited Toys for Tots. During my lunch break, I went out to Toys R Us to purchase a unisex toy. I found the perfect toy, Mr. Potato Head!
I arrived at Paramus Nissan about 40 minutes early. Surprisingly, there wasn't a lot of people and I was the third person in line for the autograph signing. I decided to get out of the line to sit down in the waiting area and watch TV. Once the time got closer to 6:00 pm, one of the Paramus Nissan representatives came over and asked if I was here for the signing. I told him I was and he suggested that I start getting in line because more people started to show up. It wasn't that bad, I ended up being the fifteenth person.
Andre arrived on time and started signing right away. Paramus Nissan provided free photos of Andre Brown to everyone who was there for the signing.
Andre was really good with all his fans. He took pictures with everyone who asked and even signed multiple items. Here's a picture of Andre Brown signing my New York Giants mini helmet.

After he signed my mini helmet, I asked him if I can please have a autographed photo as well. Andre was really cool about it and signed a photo for me.

This is another good New York Giants autograph to add to my collection. A big thank you to Andre Brown and Paramus Nissan for hosting a great event!
