Cool Famous People Autographs

Does anyone have any famous people autographs.
I got one at work this week. I didn't even know who he was untill i had to send him down to another office. He is an NBA player plays for Memphis team.
I did end up getting his autograph. I also have Michael Waltrip's autograph.

My dad is retired from Verizon. When I was like 7 or 8 he fixed the phone in Whitney Houston's house. He got me an autograph! I still have it.

Also, I went to a Jimmy Buffett concert with my ex. They were throwing shirts into the audience, and I caught one. We were right up front, and Jimmy signed the shirt. But I gave it to him. Wish I had it back now!

When my daughter was young she use to model and she was an extra on a movie set. We met and took photos with Elizabeth Berkley, Michael Chiklis and Joe Pantoliamo. They also signed their autographs it was very exciting, the movie was about a Russian mob but I never got to see it so I don't know if they edited the scene that my daughter was in.. It was exciting meeting these actors in person.

I have a pair of autographed basketball shoes from Shaquille O'Neal from when he played at LSU. They were special made for him (size 19) and after trying them on, he didn't like the fit and was going to throw them away. Hubby's brothers were managers of the basketball team at that time and asked him to autograph them as they wanted to give them to us as a joke - we still have them and they are quite the conversational piece My youngest is a HUGE Ole Miss fan and 2 years ago, all he wanted for Christmas was an autographed Eli Manning football. Hubby's dad is friends with Archie (they play golf together once a month) so we got a football to him to get Eli's signature. When we got the ball back 4 months later (it ended up being a late birthday present), it was autographed by Peyton, Eli, and Archie Taylor was SO excited!!! It is in a display case in his room and he dares any of his friends to touch it! And last but not least, we have Taylor Tankersley's autograph. For those who may not know him, he is from where we live, attended my alma matar high school, pitched for Bama (Roll Tide) and was drafted by the Florida Marlins - he got the call to the pros this year and in his first game pitching, he pitched a scoreless inning of relief - autograph is on a game schedule from Bama.

Let's see, our autographs are mostly local celebs. One is Curley Myers, he lives in our county and was on a kids show with a guy called Cowboy Bob. They showed mostly cartoons when I was little. And then we have former Purdue basketball coach Gene Keady's autograph. Oh and we do have Rueberts from Survivor. He has a monster truck and the boys got it when they went to a rally.

I don't have any, I guess I don't get out much.

Not famous, but very special to me just the same. I have an "autograph book" which most of us know today as "year books" that belonged to my Great Grandmother when she graduated high school back in the 1800's.

It's amazing because most of the year books we read today say things like "Hi Dude, have a cool summer". Yet in my Great Gradmothers autograph book/year book" it says things like "Let your life be like a snow flake, touching so many but never leaving a mark". It's all lined in red velvet that reads autographs on it, aging brownish pages, and all the writings are in fancy penmanship.

That would be such a treasure to have. After my father-in-law passed, we got a lot of this things. I have letters his mother had written to him when he was young and in the service, her diary, and some things he had written.

I just love how back then they wrote with such elegance. I guess true letter writing must be a lost art.

I don't have any famous autographs, but I've met a lot of famous people. Does that count?!

I forgot that I also have Dan Haggerty. I have it put up somewhere with other momentos. He's the guy that had a TV show and I think a movie with a bear.
