Just wondering if anyone has gotten anyone to sign a disc who was a celebrity. I just stayed in Minnesota and stayed at same hotel as the Buccaneers. I got 13 of them to sign a champion orc for me. Galloway, Barber, Quarles, Pittman, and Simms were a few of them. Chris Simms seemed pretty interested in Disc Golf he was also in a good mood since Texas just beat the Buckeyes. I rode with him and Galloway in the elevator right after the game ended.

Twisted has a disc signed by Metallica...but I am sure they are ready to sue soon

Signed Hooters discs from Himing, signed Aces, and one signed even by a policeman that was on the course :o

At the very first National Doubles in Round Rock, TX, I got Steady Ed's #001 on one of the tournament stamped DGA discs. It looks cool on the Glow-in-the-Dark Disc wall surrounded by a set of the Glow-in-the-Dark minis with the same tournament stamp.

I have a 10X roc signed by Tommy Emmanuel, one of the best acoustic guitar players ever.
I also have an Ultimate disc, no doubt the only one on the planet, signed by Al DiMeola and Leo Kottke!

I have several, but there are two discs with sigs that are my favorites.

When I TD'd the Red Rock Show in '03, we had a great bunch of players from friends to top names in the sport.

I had just had surgery on my arm and was basically one-handed (except for my gorgeous right hand Amie). I could barely move and was in tons of pain. Amie took a clear purple Spider around and got everyone to sign it (I was clueless about it) and it was presented to me at the awards ceremony as the Purple Disc Award. :)

A few of the MANY names on this disc include Brad Hammock, Schwebbie, The Nature Boy Billy Crump, the long lost Trev-Head, Vinnie Miller, Tom Pierce, Cong, Seewhere (yes, that's how he signed it) Danielle Vargas, Patty Justice, Laura Coffey, Jerry El Chile Perez, Kyle Grundman, Dave Moody, Yeti and Des and many, many more good freinds.

Perhaps my favorite sig on it is one that says "Atta Boy, Mark, Father Dave." Dave was so proud of me that he gave me my pick of any of his tye-dyed shirts he was selling off his rack. I wore it to work the day I found out he had passed away.

My second favorite disc has fewer sigs, but is so special to me, that I can hardly explain it properly.

Back when I was gonna be a force for good and change the Disc Golf world (motivation was easier to come by in those days) I put together a TD Conference/Handicapped Tournament.

There was an amazing group of people from all over Texas and beyond who gave so much of themselves to show up at this function, play a fun handicapped event and then spend hours crammed in a hotel conference room solving all the problems of the DG world.

At the end of the loooooooooong night, after I presented plaques an trophies to those who participated and those who placed in our little one-round handicapped event, Jerry Power (Alacrity on the message board) stood up and made a brief thank you speech to me for putting the event together and presented me with a San Marino Roc, which everyone then signed. Bobby Logan, Gary Duke, Bill Burns, Bryan James, Andi Lehman, Jerry Power, Terry Toolen, Michael Barr, Mike Wilson, and the "Great Gordo" Gordon Maxim-Kelley.

Folks, let me tell you, that is a list of people who could run this sport (and some who have and still do) and I was honored to be in a room where the DG IQ was so far above my head that I was overwhelmed.

There are some experiences that stick with you your whole life. A lot of mine are related to disc golf.

Love you guys.

I was in Toronto for the T.I.O. in 2001. Went to a bar after a late afternoon practice round only to discover that Perry Farrell, the lead singer of the alternative band Jane's Addiction, was going to be DJing at the bar that night. So Bryan Motley, Amy(my wife) and myself stayed at the bar for 5 more hours, and 20 more beers until Perry went on. A few minutes before he went on, we asked for a picture and autograph. Amy and Perry's picture came out great, and my brand new, 1st run CE Firebird that i was carrying around for backup, was signed by Perry.

Pretty Cool.

No worries Rhett. I've made my overdue apologies to Pat, and his concession was to allow me to still think he's a twit. (It was a dealbreaker for me) I assume that means our bantering can again resume, as long as I keep below a certain level of vitriol. :)

(And his comment was funny, but that's not the point.)

I've got an Earl Campbell autographed disc as well. That makes McCaine's worth half as much. :eek:

Only autograph I have is Ken Climo "10x" on a Z-XS with the tourn. stamp from that event. I would have had him sign an Innova disc, but all they had were Discraft.

I have 3 different signed disc from Steady ed. One of them I got myself at the 92 Am worlds. He was eating lunch with Speddy Guerrero and I asked him to sign the disc I had with me. (at gimi lightweight birdie with a michigan stamp on it) His first question was to check the disc to make sure it was Innova. At the time he would not sign anything else.

I have a disc signed "worm" that was fished out of the lake in Houston many years ago. Does that count?

Ah, Penn & Teller, I got them to sign a playing card when I saw them in Vegas. they were nice guys.

It ain't plastic, but... I have Kenny's sig. on a metal mini. It says "4-time U.S. Open champ" and he signed and dated it while he was a 3-time champ! Funny stuff.

I have two KC Aviars that Barry signed over the top of Climo's hotstamp autograph. He wrote 2X over Kenny's 11X. When he handed them back, he said, "Please don't put these on eBay." I haven't. :D

That's awesome!!! That's the most impressive trio of signatures I've heard yet.
That movie is a total classic and gets better as the years pass.

When I hear the "Hansons" I think of those loveable spectacled hockey thugs, not some stupid boy band!
