Hi Georgie, Here is a Matt Hardy autograph signing with pictures that took place this past Saturday in Fresno. Over 400 people showed to see Matt Hardy, the signing was supposed to run from 11:30a.m-1p.m. but it started half an hour late for some reason.
there was something funny that happened I want to mention...It was after 11:30 a.m. and we were all ready to meet Matt, the doors opened to the save mart center and we saw someone walk out, alot of people cheered for him and it was the janitor with a trash can to empty.lol, that gave everyone a good laugh.
The line moved very slowly at first because the people handling the autograph signing told us that we could take a picture of Matt Hardy but we COULD NOT TAKE A PICTURE WITH HIM! Which is just ridiculous !!
Some fans were stopping the line once they got to Matt to get a photo with him, and Matt was a real professional about it and posed for pics anyways.
So the people in charge of the signing decided the fans could take one picture with him as long as we had our camera out and were ready when we got to him.
The line was very long but it was organized well, and once they announced that people could take one photo with Matt the line moved much faster.
Here are a few pictures of Matt, my son and I. we had a great time.

Hi Georgie, Here is a report with pics of the Terrry Funk autograph signing that took place yesterday (Sunday afternoon) at the Galleria Mall in Las Vegas.
Terry was signing from 1 p.m.-3p.m. and he is IMO one of the greats and I was very excited to meet him and talk to him in person.
People that have spoken with that have met Terry have said that he is a friendly, warm, kind and decent man.
They were absolutely right.
My son met Terry first and took a picture with him,
Terry was so nice to my son, he joked and kidded around with my son and made him at ease and they took a great picture together and my son wanted a 8x10 of terry and Terry went and wrote out a perosnal messege to him. That was very cool of him to do that. Thank you Terry.
I got a nice picture with him as well and he autographed my title belt and he took a few minutes to write out a messege to me as well on the 8x10.
To be honest I was a bit nervous, he's been one of my favorites for years and years and as good ol' J.R. would say "he's as tough as a 2 dollar steak but as nice a guy as you'd ever want to meet".
Terry looked great, he was smiling, his wife was there and the autograph signing was smooth as silk. The line was handled well. everything was fairly priced and we had a good time meeting a legend of the ring.
Thanks to those that put the signing on. Great Job. A+ !!!
