AND PHOTO’s……

I went to see Stone Cold at FYE (1290 of The Americas). I arrived after 1 in the afternoon. To my surprise, the line wasn't that long. I was informed awhile back from a friend that in order to meet him, you had to buy his DVD so I made sure I did that ahead of time. 
 
Then once the time came, my friend told me that you couldn't take pictures with him and I was disappointed and I thought maybe he could say Hi to my mother because she's also a fan of his.
When it was my turn to meet him, he was so nice and the kind of human being you can approach.
The only problem was the security didn't let me do anything with him and basically pushed me. I know I'm not the only person to have that problem. Afterwards when I was outside, I saw some people inside taking pictures with him and I thought that was highly unfair.
 
Everyone should have been treated equally. The only problem at this autograph session was the security that they had working there. They were extremely rude and acted like complete jerks.
 
As far as meeting Stone Cold, it was such a great experience and I would love to meet him again. If there is a superstar that is definitely nice, it's Stone Cold.

Dear Georgie,

here is my review of the Stone Cold signing in NYC.  Feel free to use the photos I have attached.

Today Stone Cold Steve Austin appeared @ FYE Music – 1290 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY. He was signing his DVD the Condemned. I got there about 2pm and I was suprised that the line was not too long. I was about 100 in line. I went in got my dvd and wristband and waited. By the time 6PM came around, there were about 500-600 people. They let in about 15-20 people at a time. While in line the camera crew from wwe 24/7. They went up and down the line. By the time my group of people were allowed in, they said, " Stone Cold was only signing DVDS, and you can't get your photos with him, you can take a pic of him signing your stuff." I think this is unfair because they should have said this before hand. I saw people come out with belts, shirts, and figures signed. But alas, what is done is done.
     I had my WWE Heavyweight Championship DVD Inlay signed, they never said which dvd. I handed the security guard the inlay and I told him to please be careful with it. He handed it to Austin, then I was allowed to approach him. He looked at the inlay and he said, " Where did you get Billy Grahams autograph?" I told him I know his promoter and had it sent out to him. I asked Austin "Did Vince comp you a copy of the dvd?" Austin replied" I got one of everything" I told him that he is the first one to be comped a copy of the dvd. He thanked me for coming out and shook my hand.
     Austin was a very approachable person and very appreciative that fans came out to see him.

The only complaints I have was that they should have told everyone what he was signing at first, you cold not get a picture of you and him, and the people at the store were pushing you out.

The set up was well organized I liked how the let in a few people at a time. If you get a chance to meet Stone Cold, I highly recommend the chance.
