Fanatics Authentic Chicago Show- March 20-22

4 of us guys have been going for over 20 years. i didnt go at all. my friend paul said the crowd on sunday was one of the biggest hes ever seen.
 
Wow, big crowd for Peyton then I guess? I didn't mention this earlier but there was a booth for Mounted Memories merchandise at discounted prices. I remember Gary Sheffield and Alfonso Soriano baseballs for $30 and El Duque and Brandon Webb baseballs for $20. They had footballs (game balls) signed by Matt Leinart for $30, Nick Foles for $50, Larry Johnson for $30, and Jason Taylor for $30. It's funny to think those footballs retail from $70-95 and a signature from a probable/possible HOF'er devalues it by that much. They had signatures from a lot of guys who were busts but those were some note-able ones.
 
Hulk Hogan had by far the biggest line, more than Manning. Plus all the photo ops he did alone and with Ric Flair. Easily 500 total for him.
