CSA show in Chantilly VA

Anyone going?

I admit I have a big collection at home.. so I just bought all my autograph and photo op tickets, plane ticket.. and heading up at the end of the month.

 

Lucky you get some good steeler autographs

 

CSA Show? Mind explaining what this even is for those of us who have no idea?!

 

Confederate States of America?

basically a for-fee autograph/photo op session with various players.

I signed up for everyone (Steelers) except Ben. He is 2x or 3x many... no photo ops, $195 min signature fee. Plus 80 or 90 for a personal. That's nuts... I have things signed by him already for much less than that.

Franco
Rocky
Hines
Jack Butler
Timmons
Wallace
Mean Joe
Dawson
Sanders (Emmanuel! D is there too but ya know I only bleed black and GOLD!)
Bettis
Brown
Heyward
and Big Ben

 

Have gone there many times. Its a great show. Have many of the players that are appearing from previous shows. I'm getting Matthew Stafford this time, Im also a Georgia fan.

 

Oooh I see. Yeah I dont waste time for shows like that paying the kinda money some want. I get them for free be it during training camp...toy drives and other free or dirt cheap events.

 

I would never pay some athlete to sign something.

 

LOL, I thought the same thing, I guess it's a southern thing!

 

For me its not just "paying some athlete to sign something". Its an event. I take my son and he gets to meet one of his heros. Take pictures. When I'm dead and gone he still has the memories and the item to remember them by.

 

I don't have kids.. so it's for my own darn good memories. I have work for something I guess....

You won't see Butler, Franco, Rocky, Mean Joe all that often...

Anyhow, was just curious if anyone was going. I'm going alone.. wife is not going.

 

Uhhhh, paying for something you really wish you could get for free? We are talking autographs here, right?
