Patrick Kane signing

[mjanko3800]

Hey guys and gals, today Kane was signing here in his hometown (Buffalo,NY) at a local card shop. I wasn't really sure what to expect when I saw him. He is definately a lot smaller than I thought, but VERY personable. He personalized an 8x10 i bought for my friend, but i forgot to get the other two items personalized. I was very happy that I was able to get a photo with him. While in line, I heard his agent tell him that he couldn't sign anything "ROY", b/c someone already had a contract with him?!?!?!?!? Strange, not too sure how I would handle all the contracts/stipulations/scrutiny all these players deal with on a daily basis! But all in all, it was definately a cool experience.

Here is a AWESOME 8x10 that he signed for my friend Bill

Here is the puck that he signed for me

and here is a pic of yours truely with Patrick. Yes, That is an Iron Maiden shirt with "Eddie", their mascot wearing a hockey uniform skating in front of the Skydome and CN Tower...lol...long story!

Anyways, that's for reading about a one of a kind experience for me!
Cheers,
Brian

HAHAHAHA he's tiny!!!! I agree he looks a few months over his 13th birthday....I heard that he was told to beef up in the off season b/c his was around 170ish!!! wow I guess his speed is what keeps him alive!!!!!

Thanks for the show and tell..

Remember that H.I. doesn't only have a Hockey forum.. There is also a very apt area here: In-Person Autographs (Sports)

How much was the store charging for his auto?

That's awesome... That's a nice picture to get signed

Great story and pics. He looks like he should be shopping for school supplies instead of signing autos. Wow, I can't believe how young he looks

 

[mjanko3800]

It was $15, not bad at all, he would sign ANYTHING...pretty cool

 

[mjanko3800]

He has some crazy long curly hair like in the pic he signed for me, he looks older without a hat on, but I seriously can't get over how young he looks in this pic!
