I met him back in the winter before the 1991 season when he was a
part of the Braves caravan that traveled around to differnet places
in GA to sign autographs. I was a young teenager back then and
couldn't get out of school until the signing was almost over. My mom
took me to the mall and they had already cut off the line for
autographs. I just decided to wait on the side and thought I would
only get to simply see him from a distance. However, when they were
getting up to leave, he walked over to me. (Guess he saw me staring!
LOL). He graciously offered to take a picture with me. I didn't get
an autograph that day, but have since received several that people
have had him sign for me.
