He was good... he waved to us from inside his car on the I-5 freeway after a Dodger game.

But Tony Gwynn was the nicest of any professional athlete I ever met. No ego, made great eye contact, respectful, told us endless stories, and signed a ton of stuff for free. Super friendly guy who passed way too soon.
And such an underappreciated star of the game, in my opinion.
