Tony Gwynn
Back in 2007 Tony Gwynn was signing at a local Ford dealship (San Diego). He was to sign for 2 hours. But, at the end of two hours the line was still out the door. He continued to sign until the very last person in line....at least another hour. This was just after the announcement of his HOF vote. He looked every person in the eye, smiled, and treated each person as an individual......unhurried. My son, then 11, was very impressed, as was I. He signed two baseballs for my son. He asked my son what inscription he wanted ("Tony Gwynn #19" and "Tony Gwynn HOF 2007"). Perfect signatures........perfect gentleman.
