That chance encounter (Of course I was dreaming of this meeting but I was in the right place at the right time) helped me get Gretzky at least once EVERY day after that. I think because I talked with his dad more than him on that first meeting.

The last day they were in VT, I saw Gretzky for the last time and he came over to sign........and I just shook his hand and said "thanks" for all the autos. I literally had nothing left for him! I think I got about 8 in all!

It was a good 10 days or so! By the way Neil, that is such a cool 1971 Assists leader card. I have never seen it signed by all 3 either! I may bring my dual Gretzky to the Shriner's Show in April and have it slabbed by SGC. I like the looks of the card in those holders.

Peace, Mike

PS Walter signed the back and Wayne the front!
Yup, get that baby slabbed Mike. That's one for posterity. Real keeper. The Great One has class, his dad taught him well. Thanks for sharing it. Gem!!
