Go ahead, have your 10 year old son ask him for an autograph, see what happens...


Really??? I had a buddy who managed a Big 5 store in Issaqua. Griffey's agent would call ahead so he would know to tell all the kids that he would arrive soon so he could autograph their new Nike's!

I met him once in line at a movie theater with his soon to be wife. Pretty cool dude from my experiance.

As with all celebraties it's all about time and place. Sometimes 10 year olds are just annoying and you want to be left alone!

For the record I'm a huge Griffey fan so I'm in!
