Allan Houston (11/08/14)

Allan Houston #20
New York Knicks 1996-2005

Allan Houston played 12 seasons in the NBA with the Detroits Pistons and the New York Knicks. Houston was a 2-time NBA All-Star (2000-2001). He was a member of the USA men's national basketball team that won the basketball tournament and gold medal at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia.

Houston was signing autograph at the Dick's Sporting Goods in Wayne, New Jersey. He's my favorite New York Knicks basketball player and I was so excited to meet him. I was the first person to arrive for the signing and Allan signed all of my items.

Bucky Dent & Mookie Wilson (04/26/14)

Bucky Dent, New York Yankees 1978 World Series MVP
Mookie Wilson, New York Mets 1986 World Series Champion

Bucky Dent and Mookie Wilson were signing autographs at the Nielsen dealership in East Hanover, NJ. This was my second autograph signing today. I had to rush over from the GT Sports Marketing autograph show in Somerset and made it with about 40 minutes left. Luckily for me, the line wasn't too long.

I met Bucky Dent before at a MAB Celebrity Services signing. I asked Bucky if he could inscribe "1978 W.S. MVP" on my baseball, but he denied my request. He did inscribe his #20 to the autograph. I noticed the dealership provided 8x10 pictures of him hitting the big home run in 1978 and asked if he could sign one for me. He signed the photo and inscribed the date he hit that home run. I also took a picture with him.

Here's a picture of the 1978 World Series baseball with his "1978 W.S. MVP" inscription that he signed for me on December 2, 2012 at a MAB Celebrity Services signing.

Mookie Wilson was next. He's such a great guy. I asked Mookie if he could inscribe "86 W.S. Champs" on my baseball and he said yes. I also had a 8x10 photo of him from when he hit the ground ball to Bill Buckner in Game 6 of the 1986 World Series. He signed the photo and also inscribed the date that it happened.

Here's a picture of my New York Mets helmet that I'm starting to fill up with players from the 1986 World Series team. Mookie signed this for me on December 2, 2012 at a MAB Celebrity Services signing.

It was my second time at the Nielsen dealership and once again it was a successful event. I enjoy going to their events. It's always organized and I've always managed to get an autograph without a problem. I'm looking forward to their next event.

Antrel Rolle & Prince Amukamara (02/01/14)

New York Giants players Antrel Rolle and Prince Amukamara were signing autographs on the same day at different locations. Luckily, the signings were an hour apart and at nearby locations. Antrel Rolle's signing was the first one of the day. He was signing autographs at the North Bergen Walmart.

Antrel Rolle signed with the Giants in 2010. He's a 3-time Pro Bowl Safety and a member of the New York Giants Super Bowl XLVI (46) championship team. Antrel showed up over 30 minutes late, but lucky for me I was one of the first ones in line. This was another event hosted by Pepsi during Super Bowl week. They had some nice 8x10 photos of Antrel for fans to get signed. He was really cool about signing multiple items.

After Antrel signed my items, I rushed over to Prince Amukamara's signing at the Sports Authority in Secaucus.

Prince Amukamara was drafted out of the University of Nebraska by the New York Giants in the 1st round (19th overall) of the 2011 NFL Draft. He was also a member of the New York Giants Super Bowl XLVI (46) championship team.

When I arrived to Sports Authority the signing already began and there was over fifty people in line. Sports Authority had 5x7 photos of Prince for fans to get signed. The line moved quickly and Prince signed all of my items.
