Robbie Keane always seemed like a nice guy. What did he do?
As much as I would obviously like celebs to sign all the time, it's is unfair to say "they should always sign".As Bud said, they are only human.Heck, if I were somehow a celeb, I would refuse to sign for dealers, full stop! And judging from the numerous youtube videos I have seen, it is an absolute MADHOUSE thanks to these dealers. The celeb might not want to sign because it could pose a quite valid security risk? Or they might not feel like being yelled at?Or maybe there was an incident, and they simply employ a "no crowds" policy? (I heard of such a thing happening with Kelly Clarkson, not sure if ti still does though) I know it must be very frustrating for proper fans like you, but looking in from Australia, this appears to be the reality of the situation now.
On the security front, yes, without doubt. I more meant in a situation like a red carpet, whats it going to cost them to sign for 20mins?
Robbie Keane... horrendous. I met him in '03 in Dublin, he was quiet, shy, but a nice guy. Fast Forward to 2010 and his loan spell at Celtic ... nightmare. You barely got anything more than a squiggle, and if you dared go to get a second item you were growled at and told he was watching you. Ironically, I got my signatures with a 10 day TTM turnaround from Celtic Park at the end of the season, and absolute beauties they were as well. As a Spurs fan though, I was disappointed in his actions when I met him, and I was not the only one.
