Booster313 138 Report post Posted September 7, 2008 I just got back from the Fan Fest at the Joe and I had to share my experience. It's really cool and worth the money! They have a great HHOF display. The highlight however was Steve Yzerman. He was on stage for more than an hour this morning with Ken Daniels and Jim Nill. He answered questions and after he was done he signed autographs for about 30mins. He signed my Jersey and my Yzerman 19 retirement book! What a great guy. I will post pictures soon.

Hocketownwest 11 Report post Posted September 7, 2008 (edited) I went today as well, had a good time. Steve signed my dads stanley cup hat and both my daughters and my Yzerman jersey. Well worth the trip. Unfortunately the lack of current players there was a downer and some alumni that were scheduled were not to be found. Saw all the trophies except for the cup.

Hocketownwest 11 Report post Posted September 8, 2008 (edited) Here's a good one I took of Steve.. Surprisingly enough even Gordie was signing, of course he stopped half way down the line I'll give him a break because he's old. The layout My daughter and I even made it on the Freepress website http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/gallery...Params=Itemnr=9 Edited September 8, 2008 by Hocketownwest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vladyfan 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2008 (edited) I was there as well. I had NO idea that Stevie was going to be signing. I heard some guy say hey, Yzerman is... and off I was. I managed to wade my way in and got my jersey signed. I did not get the cool pics, as I had too many people in front of me holding up their stuff. I was very excited, though! I was disappointed at the lack of current players there, though. I had thought that perhaps some of the regulars (the Grindline perhaps?) would show up. NO dice. EDIT Thanks for sharing your photos... I will copy some of them for my scrapbook! Edited September 9, 2008 by vladyfan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lidstromfan5 3 Report post Posted September 9, 2008 (edited) I am in the pictures too. I am the second photo taking the 70mph slap shot. My picture is right after Stevie. Yes, I rule. Me and my mom also won the Wing it! Trivia challenge. I acted like a total moron, being tired sucks. Edited September 9, 2008 by lidstromfan5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
