Okay....I think I'm finally getting the hang of this autograph
hunting....I bet most of you "head hunters" already have this one
but it was a big deal to me!
I was in the balcony section...(great seats by the way!)...but not
so good for getting autographs... :-(
I had my heart set on getting Teddy Atlas's autograph....so I made my
way down to the floor....the biggest damn indian with a mohawk I've
ever seen busted me twice....:-( Finally, the indian had to pee! (Yes!)
I thought to myself.....so I made another attempt...but his relief guy
also told me to get lost.....
I finally found the weak link in the security....<G>.....busted a move...
...and made my way up to Teddy.....knelt down beside him and asked, ever
so politely, "Hey Teddy? I'm a big fan! Would you mind signing a couple
chips for me?" He said, "Sure, I'd love to!"
What a nice guy! Shook my hand and everything!
After that, I made my way back to my seat.....then realized...I DON'T HAVE
ENOUGH AUTOGRAPHS!!!
So...back to the weak link I went...<G>....weak link let me by with a wink
and a grin....on my second approach to Teddy....knelt down beside him
again and explained that I wasn't trying to stalk him...<G>..but that if I
went home without a couple more autographs...I'd have no friends!
Teddy laughed....said no problem....he asked me if I was enjoying the
fight....thanked me for coming out to watch...shook my hand AGAIN...and
said if I found that I needed any more, I'd know where he was!
What a nice guy!!! A real gentleman....
So here's MY first autograph!!!

P.S. I'd have gotten more autographs on chips if that Michael Ludwig
hadn't been so tight with the autograph package! <G> (Just kidding
Mike...)
