Show & Tell Autographs you personally acquired

Posted By: Dave Williams

In 2005 a friend told me Muhammad Ali might be in town as his son was playing in a 14 and under baseball tournament. I was refereeing soccer games all Saturday morning, and saw his motor home in the parking lot.

The night before I had dug out 3 Sports Illustrateds from the 70's and 80's.

My 13 year old daughter finished her soccer game, and as I was still reffing, walked over to his motor home, knocked on the door, and they let her in, where she got to sit next to Muhammad as he signed 3 Sports Illustrateds for her.

Alas, by the time I was done with soccer, his driver and staff were no longer allowing contact with him, as he was watching his son play baseball.

I've got 2 of the SI's framed in my office.
