Nice score - Did you send him all that stuff to have signed? Also, was it to the usual address that we all got?

Wow - What a day for me!~ I went out to Barnes and Noble today and was just hanging out with the family - I said "Let's go in there first. I want to see if they have Ozzy's book in".... Well, as I first walked in, there was a table in the middle of the floor with a sign that said "Books under $10.00" - So I thought, "Eh, may as well peek." - To my surprise, I saw Chris Jericho's book "Around the World in Spandex" right there on that very table. It had a sticker on the bottom right corner saying Original Price $25.99 - Reduced to $5.98. I was like - HELL YEA ... I'll buy it for 6 bucks... But then what REALLY shocked me was the other sticker in the right top corner - It read "AUTOGRAPHED BY AUTHOR" - My eyes became as big as hubcaps. I opened the book, and low and behold - BAM! Signed by Chris Jericho!!! It reads his autograph, Y2J and the date , which was 11-10-07. Just cannot believe it - I went to the counter to ask them about it and she told me that sometimes they have signings and ask for a few copies signed, or the author just does it for whatever reason, etc .. I showed her the book and she was like - "COOL, Good for you:-)" This just really made my day. First, paying only 6 dollars for a hard cover book that costs 26 dollars 3 years ago, and then discovering it was signed... Unreal - Good day for me... Here are the pics, and comments of course are welcomed.

Congrats Frank. That's a huge score. I had similar experiences when Wrestling Superstore used to be 5 mins from my house. I got a signed Cpl. Kirshner book for $5 and the Lanny Poffo poetry book signed by Lanny & Randy Savage for $10. I've read just about all of the major wrestling books and Jericho's is one of the best no doubt. I'm sure you'll like it.

Thanks - Nice stories ... I didn't know Kirchner wrote a book??? - I would love to get Macho Man's but it seems that he just doesn't do TTM ... I have tried twice - Not even a RTS - Yea, looking forward to the Jericho read - I am still amazed on how lucky I got. (Canadian Flag for Jericho!~ - I live in USA!~) --- >

I ordered everything from his website for $10. I found out afterwords that he will sign for free if you mail him something. But oh well I'm pretty happy with it.
