Best autograph I ever got at the Garden was when I was like 7 or 8. I had no idea about the Celtics and who was who and what not, but one of the players was out there on the edge of the court for about 25 minutes signing autographs, he signed every single kids thing except for of course mine... So i was no fool, when he turned to walk out on the court for warm ups, I poked him right in the back... he turned around semi confused as I handed him my program with a puppy dog face, he shrugged his shoulders, signed it, then ran off on the court. Then at the end of the game my dad and I looked up and said, no way, that guy that signed your program got 37 points.... It was Antoine Walker!

Best autograph I ever got I was like 10 years old or so. I walked into everett sporting goods to buy a cup for my baseball season and standing there at the counter was Ray Borque. He wasnt there for an autograph signing or anything he was just buying tape and pucks(tho i doubt they charged him for them :P he was god in boston back then). But I just asked him and he said of course. I got denied by roger clemens one time because I didnt have any money, then this happened so it really made me love ray.
Andy Bernard doesnt lose constests. He wins them, or he quits them because they're unfair.

That was interesting to watch. Thanks so much for sharing as it's always fun to see these guys up close off the court. Evans, Cousins, and Caspi all seem like stand up guys. I feel like they could be more engaging with the fans as opposed to just standing there and signing.

Oh, and I loved the guy who was asking for Dalembert and Evans' shoes after the game.

Question: were your seats anywhere near there? At the ACC in Toronto they don't let you anywhere near the players unless your seats are in the first few rows. Oh, and how early do they open the doors in Boston? I've only been to one game and I arrived just in time for the Anthem. In Toronto they only let you in 1 hour before the tip.
