How to get a wave, baseball bat or jersey

May not be a celebrity to anyone but Seattle fans, but Kasey Keller gave me a pair of his keeper's gloves. My family has season tickets for Sounders soccer games, and I had a sign at every game that said "Hey Kasey! Got some gloves for a fellow keeper?" We always went down to the side of the pitch after every game and held it up, and he would see us an wave an give a little laugh, and then keep walking. Finally after a friendly game against Manchester United, he came over near us for an interview and tossed me a pair of his gloves. Then came back and signed them. It was awesome. If you want an athlete to notice you, have a sign and consistently be in the same place. Try to make your sign witty and friendly, and always smile, and you can get anything from a wave to a baseball bat or jersey.
