a guy in line had a home plate nicely signed by mickey mantle and duke snider, he went up to mays and mays signed it, but didnt bother to check the sharpie - it was dried out, and the signature turned out very light, ruined the guys piece. hopefully he found a way to wash it off and get a dark signature eventually. i would have not been happy with that outcome if it was me and i paid good money for a very light washed out signature.

mays looked down the whole time except for once, someone brought a bat, and he stood up and gave it a mock swing, and everyone oohed and aahed like he had really done something. they fed his ego when he didnt deserve it.


if he would have just looked at people and gave an ocassional smile and been polite i think thats all that people would ask from him.
