wow his autograph is getting worse and worse lol... i met him in late 2008 and he signed for us it looked like "TyLER Hg 50" then i got him a couple of months ago and it was "TyLER 50" now it looks like "TyR 50" still a cool autograph of a great player

Wow! That is rare, seeing a star while working!

Sorry for the delay (and for bumping this month old post) Here is a scan of my in person success.

lucky you... im a big tarheels fan and ive met him a few times and he was usually less than pleasant about signing autographs... i mean he signed a couple of times but most of the times he wouldn't even acknowledge the people waiting... helluva ball player tho i really feel like he'll help the pacers out

also could you please post a scan of the autograph?

thanks

This past week, while working at Target here in Indianapolis, I met Tyler Hansbrough. He was the Pacers #1 draft pick this year and an excellent college player at UNC. Anytime I see someone in our store bigger than me (I'm 6'6") I do a quick scan of my memory to see if I recognize them from any sports teams. I approached Mr. Hansbrough and asked if he needed help... he said he did not. Just then my brain "clicked" on who he was and I shook his hand and told him if he needed anything to just let me know. Before I could walk away, he started asking me a few questions about sets of glasses and silverware. He then asked if I would help him pick out a blender...which I did. Mr. Hansbrough was in the store for about an hour shopping.
I caught him on his way out of the store and asked for a quick autograph. He gladly signed a piece of paper in silver sharpie for me and inscribed it, "To Matt"

It's not everyday you get to shake the hand of a millionaire (he will make $1.5 million this year and $1.7 million next year!)

Good Luck!
Matt
