The funny thing is that everywhere they sell autograph tickets, there is a picture of Greg Maddux's autograph-to prepare/warn the buyer if what you should expect. Plus, they have sold over 500 Maddux autographs, so much for the limit.

I'm not surprised they sold more than 400 for Maddux. That is just the line tickets too, most likely. Does not include all the back room people. Still worth it to me to see the scribble. It is what it is, and I'll be done with him after tomorrow.

Rose cancelled? Did he get double booked at a signing somewhere else (more profitable)? He'll be back. He's there, what, once a year?

More than once a year really, maybe he did well at the track on Thursday and wanted to ride it out? :) One of the jockeys was cancelled too for what it's worth

I've yet to figure out how to post on here. Mine looks better than the usual G Ma, but not much. I did see a few and they looked relatively close to mine. I'm glad I got it done in front of me.

when i get home, i will try and post mine. I was a little irked how some guy purchased this huge painting of Maddux and Greg put (IMHO) a lowsy (yet big) signature on it. I thought the one on my baseball was a lot nicer (in the Greg Maddux autograph realm of nice signatures). People were there that got him in Spring Training and at LT and said today's signature was much better than at those events, which got me thinking how bad those signatures must have been.

My Maddux from signing:

Additionally, on another site, I found a Jersey that got signed I thought the autograph was actually a bit worse, even though it cost more:
