Figured we needed another autograph thread for your favorite autographed items - if there's a story behind it, even cooler!

I've got several...but I'll post just 1 for now.

Steve McNair and Peyton Manning dual signed 8x10 - got Steve on this around 2005, and Peyton in 2009 at a Monday Night Football game - came right over to me and I was the first person he signed for. Even said the photo was cool.

Hello Here is my favorite autographed item. It was signed by Chipper in 96 my Dads friend worked for NBC sports department and they had to go interview some Dodgers and he knew I loved Chipper so he went into the clubhouse and talked to Chipper and told him a little about me Chipper signed the baseball. It was so awesome when my Dad surprised me with it when he came home from work with it.

This is a piece that I picked up last year and is limited edition. It is signed by Brett and the artist Charles Fazzino. Someday I'll get it framed and matted.

Thank you for clarifying. The image I had of you meeting at a 'fan feet' was a bit troubling :eek:

This one is easy for me...

Garin Cecchini signed baseball for my daughter. This is the ball that he gave her earlier in the year and it was the one that got her started loving to collect baseball stuff. She is so hooked that she even has started collecting baseball cards... like a little bit of heaven on earth for her daddy!

One of my favorite pieces is this ball that Cal Ripken Jr. gave me when I turned the big 5-0 a couple years ago:

I'm no longer much of a card guy anymore, but when I saw this card on eBay I thought it would be neat to have it signed by both Hall of Famers from different sports:

One of my favorite pieces...

The story as it was told to me: The Bears were on a team flight and Payton took a liking to one of the flight attendants. He put two tickets to an upcoming game in an envelope and signed the envelope with his name, number, nickname, and team so she'd be able to identify him at the game. The flight attendant's daughter sold this piece to my uncle for $30 who in turn gave it to me.

Whether the story is true or not, can't beat an every letter Payton signature with inscriptions for $30.

Dale Earnhardt died during the 2001 Daytona 500. 5 months later, his son, my all time favorite driver won in Daytona driving a car sponsored by the 2001 MLB All Star game. Here's is a photo of the car and an authentic baseball signed by Dale Jr.

On September 27, 2007, the Diamondbacks were on a three game losing streak and barely clinging to a one game lead in the Division. Regular season game #159 was getaway day in Pittsburgh. With rain threatening, Manager Bob Melvin decided, an hour before game time, to withhold his ace, Brandon Webb, and start Micah Owings.

Owings not only threw 6.1 innings of shutout Baseball - the final was 8 to 0 - but went 4-for-4 at the plate, with three doubles, three rbi's, and a broken bat single. This is the broken bat.

The Snakes went on to win the Division, and to sweep the Cubs in the first round of the playoffs.

To coincide with gingi79, 10 years later after Dale died the driver who won the 500 for Dales team was supposed to run a special paint scheme to honor Dale.

Dales wife disapproved of the number font used in the tribute car and made this enough of a problem to force the number style to change.

Below is the door off that car, with the original number as most of the decal wrap of the replacement number was peeled.

It's a pretty special peice considering what it means, but my favorite came irronically at a Fast Five movie premier (seeing as Paul Walker just passed). Driver Robby Gordon was not pleased with a agreement he had made with another team to merge, he knew me fairly well and expressed his displeasure on my quarter panel.

The actual check paid to legendary high wire artist Karl Wallenda for walking a wire over Atlanta's Fulton County Stadium in 1972. After completing the stunt, Karl Wallenda endorsed the $1000 check on the back and gave the check back to the Braves for the $1000 in cash. The check is endorsed on the back, but is now framed with an actual photo of him walking on the wire over Fulton County Stadium.(a friend actually took the photo at the stadium when he was attending the game as a kid)

Karl Wallenda died in 1978 at age 73 when he fell off a high wire in Puerto Rico during a performance. His great grandson is Nik Wallenda, the high wire artist that crossed Niagra Falls in 2011 and walked over the canyon near the Grand Canyon in June of this year.

Here is a commemorative ball from the closing of the Metrodome from 2009 signed by Cal Ripken Jr. with two inscriptions of historic games that he participated in there:

Thought I would show my favorite since the big win from last night!

Print with 45 signatures of the Seahawks. A few from last years team but mostly complete. I do need to get Coach Carroll on here somehow.
