lol no. Most would call him an asshole, but he was just quiet and didn't care much for the media attention he got in Seattle. I did get the no hitter ticket stub signed.

puddle......I gotta ask bro, how much are those autographs really worth? I mean an autographed card of a player is one thing, but just getting a piece of paper, like a ticket stub.....how much could that possibly be worth?

I don't usually get ticket stubs signed, I did this one because it was his no hitter game. My brother and I focused in getting game used stuff like bats, balls, shoes, etc. We also got a ton of cards signed too. To give you an idea, we sold our Sonic team balls for $175 to dealers, they'd turn around and sell them for $250-$350. And this was 15 or so years ago. We could usually do 2-3 game balls in a practice. Waiting after the games for autographs is a waste of time for the most part, every damn kid and his mother is out there hoping for even just one player to stop and sign. Most avoided it and went straight to their cars because the crowds were too large. Shawn Kemp use to leave out the back to avoid crowds, he'd park at the QFC instead of the players parking lot. Only a handful of people knew about this, his deal was if you kept your pie hole shut and not tell anyone, he'd sign for you.
I'm working on some pics of the photos I found in my drawer to shut borris up. Just not sure how cell phone pics of pics is gonna turn out...
A net and a bunch of signed basketballs
You can see some game used shoes in this pic, as well as game used bats in the corner
More game used shoes. It took us all season but we got the entire sonics teams shoes including coach Karl. Hardest to get was Ricky Pierce and Sam Perkins. Perkins must have told me he doesn't give things out a million times, then one night after a game he walks out with shoes in his hands scanning the crowd for me. It completed the set so I was pretty stoked! Ended up getting a couple thousand for that set from a diehard fan.

David Robinson and what appears to be Detlef Schrempf (He was a popular Seattle player among fans and a good seller)

wasnt' there a movie about guys that did this? With Deniro and snipes?
Autographed game balls! Lets see who I recognize after all these years... Reggie Jackson is the top one, Rod Carew, Tony Olivia, Darren Daulton, Mike Greenwell (lol), Cecil Fielder, eh... I'd have to break the balls out to figure out the rest
