Shelly, what was amazing to me was that I had met Feller about 20 years earlier and he couldn't have been a bigger jerk, surly, cranky and miserable. Maybe having a bad day but the second time I met him, he could not have been nicer. Same thing with Pete Rose. Met him when he had just retired and thought he was a real schmuck. Saw him after he started signing his name for a living and he was great. Had kids sit on his lap, posed for as many pictures as you wanted, etc.
