My bf is a HUGE new york giants fan. Currently he is over seas stationed in Afghanistan and I wanna do something special for him. I got him a giants jersey in the hopes of getting it signed for him but I have no clue where to start...... any advice and guidance would be loved and appreciated Thank you :)

Hi. Request a signed photo of Head Coach Tom Coughlin, he will do it an d it is real. Having someone sign a jersey ttm is almost impossible. At the very least your friend will have a future HOF autograph. Good Luck.

if you live in new york you can try to get some in person before the game starts (maybe even mention this is for your boyfriend overseas) but worst case if you have money you can to go to an autograph signing or mail it in if the autograph signing is not near you

I sent a jersey to Dirk Dowitzki and he signed it, but he is a really good TTM signer. Also sent an official NFL football to Warren Moon, a very good TTM signer and he signed it for me.

I also sent a jersey to Ryne Sandberg with no success and I feel I lost that one. So it's risk/reward for every TTM you send. I would recommend going to training camp or see if any of them are doing any signings. I would only send a jersey if I know the specific person is an avid and fantastic TTM signer.

i do agree with cutie. it is a risk that you take TTM. since it is a jersey i would start with what superfly said, then if you are able to attend a signing or a fan days they do have player appearances schedule on their website. also check their event calendar for when they appear also. hope this helps. {up}

one thing that i have always done with bigger stuff , if you have time, send a letter with maybe a picture of athlete with a letter as usual, tell them your story and tell them say i bought a jersey and i want to suprise him do you mind if i send the jersey to you, you would be suprised how many ppl will return your letter saying yes, and theyu will be waiting for it. Especially if you go for lower level players , what i Almost always have a good experience with is retired players, they are just glad ppl remember them i think, but thats what i do with balls ,mini hemets, hats etc. Good Luck,I appreciate what your husband is doing for our country
