Brandon Jacobs was signing autographs at Modell's Sporting Goods in Woodland Park, NJ. It was a ticketed event for the first 100 customers. I arrived at Modell's an hour and a half before the scheduled signing time. There was over 40 people in line when I got there and I was one of the lucky customers to receive a ticket. Here are some pictures of the line outside and inside the store.

Brandon Jacobs arrived a few minutes early and began signing right away.

Jacobs almost signed my mini helmet with a black sharpie, but I quickly asked if he could use a silver sharpie instead and he took care of me. He was very nice to everyone at the event. Here's a picture of Brandon Jacobs signing my New York Giants mini helmet.

This autograph signing was a success! It was very organized and went as smooth as possible. I'm very happy to add Brandon Jacobs' autograph to my collection. Thank you Modell's Sporting Goods of Woodland Park, NJ for hosting this great event.

Jeremy Hefner, New York Mets Starting Pitcher

My friend and coworker, Amber, attended a meet-and-greet event at Citi Field with New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies players. The event was organized by Berkeley College, Modell’s Sporting Goods, and Snowball Express, an organization dedicated to creating happy memories for the children of fallen U.S. troops. This event took place while I was away on my trip to Arizona, so I had no chance of attending. Amber was really nice and took one of my baseballs to get autographed. She was very successful! Amber met and spoke with New York Mets pitcher, Jeremy Hefner. Here are some of the great pictures that she took at the event.

Jeremy Hefner signed my Rawlings Official Major League Baseball.

A huge THANK YOU to Amber for getting me this autograph. I'm a big Mets fan and Hefner's autograph will make a nice addition to my collection. You're the best, Amber!
