Rockets weren't staying downtown today which freaking sucked and completely threw my day off. also bad was the fact that duke was gone almost the entire day so i never saw any of them (probably wouldn't have anyway) walking around.
NCAA:
Dick Vitale 5/5 (2 mini basketballs, 2 posters given out there, 1 blank when he was walking back to the hotel) + pic w/
Joe Mazzulla 4/4 +pic w/ - all were separate times, and the last time he laughed and said "Make sure you get good money for these" lol. nice dude
Jay Bilas 1/1 - said he'd rather not write "Go Blue Devils", does he disassociate with them?
Howie Schwab (Stump the Schwab guy) 1/1 - was hanging around the Vitale signing for some reason
John Flowers 1/1
Jonnie West 1/1

Rockets at the game:
Luis Scola 1/1 - 08/09 topps card
Jermaine Taylor 3/3
Aaron Brooks 1/2
Jared Jeffries 1/1
Chuck Hayes 1/1
 
another long, not necessarily wasted, but still not satisfying day today thanks to hansbrough canceling again.
Kevin McHale 2/2 (1 w/ "HOF 98", 1 w/ "3x Champ") - VERY nice guy

yesterday with the Cardinals in Cincy
David Freese 1/1 - 09 AG
Colby Rasmus 1/1 - 09 AG

MARK MCGWIRE 1/1 - SS OMLB so stoked i got him, definitely one of my favorite items

Got shutout today, and the only one to even sign was Adam Wainwright who i couldn't get in time. Mac did seem weary of signing, but hit 20 or so items
 
Strokes' frontman, and one of my favorite musicians, Julian Casablancas held a signing today at a local independent record store to promote his concert tonight (would have gone except its a 21+ venue) and his new album, Phrazes For The Young. he was about 20 minutes late, and definitely took his time signing as he was talking with and takes pictures with pretty much everyone in line which was awesome. he was signing with a silver sharpie (he had two and they were both dead after signing probably 15 or so things), but took my paint pen to sign the LP. When i asked him to sign my 16x20 he didn't have a problem until i handed him the blue sharpie, to which he asked if i was one of those internet guys since they use the blue sharpies LOL. told him to personalize it just to make him feel better about it haha, and he ended up drawing the staff and a note. also, when my dad went to take a picture of him he like jumped because he said big cameras scare him? really cool dude
1/1 16x20
1/1 LP

nets saturday
brook and yi didn't sign, left before devin harris came out
Terrence Williams 1/1
CDR 1/1
Chris Quinn 1/1 w/ "GO IRISH"
Josh Boone 1/1
Courtney Lee 1/1
Kiki Vandeweghe 1/1 - was signing basketballs and boards, but was also personalizing them

Saw Brandon Rush down there as well - 4/4 (one SI, three cards. all for others)

magic yesterday
Dwight Howard 1/1, 1/1 (help), 1/1 (help) - one set card, one SI, one Hoop magazine
Jameer Nelson 1/1 - set card

dwight was the only one I tried for when they got off the bus. Everyones favorite NBA legend came out right after to get something to eat, and I hadn't even gotten "mr Ewing" out of my mouth when he put his hand up and got in the cab. A little later redick, gortat, and Anderson came out, but I was across the street eating. Then a little after that Nelson and barnes left to eat with Ewing and I got Nelson then
Also, their team security guy was limiting everyone to one with Dwight, and would say something if you tried to double dip


I ended the season with a little more than 300 total autos. not terrible, but would have liked to have gotten more
