splinter_65My dad, in his mid-60s, ran into Wilie Mays in a casino in Atlatnic City 3 years ago. Never shy, he walked up to him, began a conversation about baseball and the Red Sox (his favorite subject), and spoke to Willie for about 10 minutes. As they were parting, Willie asked if he wanted an autograph, and the only thing my dad had to write on was a ticket stub to a show. It was signed Best Wishes, Willie Mays, and is now a part of my collection. My dad still has great things to say about how he was treated by Willie. I'm sorry to hear about other bad experiences.
