Graphed the Griffins last night after the game kinda. My wife finally got her Nathan Paetsch stick she's been wanting for past 3 seasons so we stuck around after to get him. Enter guy that was hammered drunk...got shut down by 2 players then I talked Anthony Mantha into signing for this guy because it will make his night. So Mantha signs his forehead as this guy requested. Paetsch did as well lmao. Dunno if he got anyone else to sign his face or not as we walked and talked with Paetsch. Guy started following us then went into back gated off area and was banging on visiting teams empty bus. Sadly thats where the story ends, Im sure he probably found his way to the drunk tank though. So I did get to see history, first face that Mantha or Paetsch ever signed lol.
Now for the autographs, finally got Chelios to sign for me, all I had brought to game was one Wings puck...my just in case I see someone around. Well Chelios couldn't make no excuse how it was to cold outside or didn't have time to sign. Got him on the concourse in line at one of the vendors. I am now 1 for like 20 trying to get him at game. Just wish I had my photo of him and I with me. Mantha is from after the game, wish I had something for him also but like Will Ferrell and Randy Jackson, not gonna not get his autograph. Ellis and Allen I got from another local grapher who got them done for me when the players were here with their AHL teams I couldnt go graph.
My wife's new favorite hockey item, former Buffalo Sabres Nathan Paetsch stick
Michel Goulet, about 1 month wait. Rest I picked up at a local shop cheap. Dallas Drake, Yves Racine, Paul Coffey and Derek Plante
