Visiting team autographs

[Header11]

I'm in town for the jets vs pens game tomorrow night and I'm looking for tips to get my kid an autograph. Any advice. Thanks in advance

Most visiting teams stay at the Fairmont. You could try hanging out in the lobby all day.

Feel like selfies have taken over autographs.

Photograph killed the written signature star.

Crosby will sign if there is a kid..Kessel will sign for a kid a 40% chance if it's just for a Adult...Malkin is a 0% chance of signing.
Issue with guys signing nowadays is that there are so many parasites that try and get players to sign items for profit and they know it so they arnt as keen to sign as they once were...

I used to think autographs were great, but over time I realised that they can just be purchased if desired, while a photo with a player is unique and shows that you really met them.

I think that was totally the case before cameras were cheap and cell phones had cameras. But anybody can put a pen to something and say that it was them.

PS: Just some super friendly advice, your avatar is outdated. Sorry, can't stand Evander Kane.

As someone who owns a business in the sports autograph and memorabilia business, "hounders for profit" have destroyed the joy for kids to get an autograph of their favorite player.

Best to have your son write a hand written letter to the player asking for an autograph. My son writes letters, not asking for an autograph or anything, but will get a letter back with a little poster card. He gets pretty excited for that.
