Quincy Lewis came to my school and he signed my shoe it was awesome ha ha ha I wore the shoe all the time And thought i was the ****. I also got Frank Laydens autograph at a game once and then Raul Lopez dated my cousin for a couple months so I got to get his autograph. Then when I was in hs i got dwill, korver, CJ Miles, Dee Brown and Memo
 
John Crotty during his first stint with us. I had him sign my Crotty card with a pen, which didn't work well so it was really more of an imprint of his signature. Dude was dynamite during his second stint with us and on his way to stardom. It's too bad he tore his ACL.
 
Well, I take that back. I saw Mike Brown at the Cottonwood Mall. This may or may not have been before the Crotty autograph. I think it was.
 
I can't even remember if it was a real sig or not, but in Jr. Jazz they would always send out the crappiest player to meet the little kids and give everyone a photo of the guy with his sig on it. I believe it was none other than the man, the myth, the legend; Stephen Howard himself that graced us with his presence at the one in my local community.

Ours was Tyrone Corbin (back before he was 'Ty'). That's when I learned that those mass-produced photos had fake autographs.
 
I had surgery at primary's when I was three years old. The whole 1987 Jazz team including coach Sloan signed a get well card for me. It's one of my greatest treasures.
 
I was thirteen at Murray High school, don't ask why I was there, I don't remember, it was either summer or a Saturday, was with friends and Big Mark Eaton was their, and we got hid sig.
 
When I was about 10 I got to go into the Jazz locker room after a game and meet Karl Malone. He signed the shoes he wore that game and gave them to me. Pretty badass to meet your hero at that age.

I'm not saying you should sell them but game work Malone shoes would fetch around a grand I'd guess. Maybe even 2-3K.
 
I have a good autograph story.

Make it real short. My Mom was working in Salt Lake City and she found a wallet in a parking lot. She thought the person it belonged to must have been a trucker because they had CDL license. So, she took the wallet to a bank (that was on one of the cards inside) thinking they could contact the owner of the wallet. When she got there the tellers were excited to see it, because she had Paul Millsap's wallet. She left them her information and later on she was contacted by a representative of Millsap and they sent here an autographed photo.

My favorite part of the story is that my Mom was, of course, totally oblivious to who Paul Millsap is.... just thinking the whole time he must have been a trucker. My Mom had just moved to the area, for her job... I just couldn't believe the odds of that happening.
