At an old-timers game at Fenway in 1988, I had early access into the park through a family connection. I was 14 at the time and politely asked Gibson to sign a ball outside of the locker room as he was standing by himself. He yelled at me to leave him alone.
I stood there looking about to cry. Warren Spahn walked over, said to me to forget about that, and asked if he could sign the ball for me. HOF or not, it's stuff like that which sticks for me. I have ZERO Gibson cards in my collection. There are many Spahn items in my collection.
