Until I discovered that the local minor league team brings in players every now and again for signings, my sports photos were few and far between. Aside from some early Mariners photo day shots, I met Bob Feller at a card shop. That was it. Then, I got a bunch of autographs at the 2001 Fan Fest, but was alone so didn't have any photos taken with any of them (Bob Gibson, Enos Slaughter, Orlando Cepeda, Carl Erskine, Rico Carty, Jim Rice, Pedro Guerrero, etc) except one…Garvey!

Me making Dave Stewart look small...

Harlem Globetrotter and Amazing Race star, Flight Time...

Feller in the 80s...

The Garv...

Rollie...

Dan Wilson...

Jeff Nelson...

Gaylord Perry was the first MiLB event and I didn't try to get a photo with him and my boys didn't want to pose with him either. He was kind of a grouch too…



And these are just too good not to share. 1980 Mariners photo night. Sporting a vintage look that night, but love that I have these now all these years later.

I liked the Sugar Ray and the Great one, but Grapes takes the cake. I'm jealous.

walking to our seats and who do i see seating in one of our seats? My childhood hero Steve Garvey. He was giving a personal tour of the stadium to some people and he had seen them to their seats. I wasn't going to ask him to move so just sat next to him and had a 20 min conversation about baseball. During which there were people coming by for autographs and he said i acted as his agent since i was handing him the stuff to sign
Class act all the way. Wow! i still get goose bumps thinking about that day
A thrill of lifetime which one can't put words to it. Thank you Greg for picking those seats and that particular game
