I went to the Scott Hall meet and greet today in Reading, Pa. He started signing at 5pm. I got there around 4pm and was probably 10th in line. When it was time to go in there was probably 150-200 people in line. Hall was vey nice and friendly to everyone that come up to him. Couldn't have been nicer, he looked healthy too. The guy taking the tickets said only one auto per person. So I went with the Razor Ramon card. I had the other cards in my hand, Hall noticed them and was like "whoaa". I said would you mind singing them too. He said "no problem". I heard someone yell out no as I handed him the next card. By now I'm nervous, wondering if I'm going to get yelled at. So I give him one last card. Uuuuuuuuuugh, i smear the last card when I pick it up. Very unhappy with myself. I was mad about it all the way home. I touched it up. Not sure if I made it worse. But I'm happier with it looking this way. Eeeh

Too sweet! Honestly, I smudged an auto once, and was sad, but now it is just a cool piece with an added story for my memories. On a side note, props on the cards, I didn't even know they existed. Much love.

Thanks. Yeah true. I'll always remember the time I got flustered by the Bad Guy. Lol.
The cards are customs. I got them printed a few months ago.

nice stuff.. crazy that there were 200 ppl in line for him at 5pm on a friday... i met Nash last weekend at a show here in Toronto.. i was there for the first hour or so.. there was no line, and maybe 5 ppl in the first hour showed up.. and there were like 7 other wrestlers there too.. pretty pathetic turnout

Looking good!! Least you got the autographs when he came to London last year with Nash and X-Pac the whole thing was so badly run half of us had to leave to get the last train home it had over run so bad before they had even started Autographs. Luckily I'd given to his we can rebuild him campaign so got one on the end.

Nice to see he wasn't high off his ass and rude like some stories I've heard. Cool cards dude, I dig the throwback one with DDP

Congrats man. I paid $350 for a 1 hour Hogan meet 'n' greet which he popped his head out for maybe 40 seconds and left. I've since sold all my Hogan merch.

Cool experience. I think most wrestlers don't care how many free/extra autographs they sign as long as they've been paid fairly by the promoter.
Some of these "security" officials or whatever you want to call them just love to be in that position so they can act like they have some kind of power over people.
At indy shows fans can usually work a deal with the former WWE wrestlers to sign a bunch of items for a low price.

I don't think it's so much the security guards being in power over people so much as it is keeping the line moving. I've been at signings when people have garbage bags full of merchandise they try and get 15 things signed. It happens every time I go to a signing, multiple times. I'm glad they keep things moving.

I'm glad they keep things moving.[/quote] I can certainly understand if it's a dozen items but when it's one or two more like this one was, and it's clearly Scott being alright with signing a few more, then IMO it's someone wanting to be a jerk for sake of being a jerk. If a person is into meeting wrestlers or celebrities, they'll see that the majority of people who try to "over enforce" regulations, generally seem to do it for the sake of being a jerk. They're probably too small a person to tell Scott before hand to only sign one. But the kid or the middle aged guy that probably doesn't look like Incredible Hulk, they're not too small a person to get on their case.
