A moment with a HOF'er

[bfyler]

Well I live up in Maine and I heard on a local radio station that None other than Bobby Orr was going to be at a local Lumber company doing a signing. I was a little bummed out that I had to work and was unable to manage to get the day off. Was real tempted to bail but my conscious got the better of me. I asked my amazing wife to go in my place and to keep the kids home and meet one of the Best hockey players to ever lace them up. I had a couple pucks that I was hoping to get signed ( A Bruins and a Team Canada) as well as my Bruins Jersey. I had also had a McFarlane. My oldest has a jersey that he has been working on and has done quite well. he got a ton signed at training camp from Ryan Button to Marc Savard and Big Z. Well off they went and they were nice enough to take some pics that I will now share.. Thanks for stopping in..
