Virgil is doing the Autorama series of car shows next year and one of the cities he is doing is Cincinnati.
I know people have had stories about Virgil at signings, but would like a refesher course on Virgil 101.
Should I get there early (he is going to be there 3 days)? /sarcasm

Oh my god! Virgil doing a 3 DAY auograph signing?? Let's start the over/under on how many autographs he actually signs! I say we should start the guessing at 40, and I'll take the under....

Make sure you go just to get a picture of him sitting all by himself. And don't get an autograph.  |

Ask him if he really slung his hose on Patterson's desk to get a job.

I'd ask him why his character never went anywhere despite the huge crowd reaction after beating Dibiase. But since it may be considered insulting....I dunno, I don't care enough about him.

One time I bought four autographs from Virgil because I felt so bad for him. I had him sign one Virgil, one Vincent, one Curly Bill, and one Shane. I like to think it made his day.
True story.

Virg told my family a 20 minute story about living in Las Vegas and winning a shitload of money, only to lose it within minutes....
I love Virgil autograph signings.

Maybe I'll run into ol' Curly Bill when I'm out in Vegas for the spring semester next year! That would make the whole trip! Walkin' down the strip and seein' Virgil lookin' all sad after losin' at blackjack! Classic!! |

There is something so wrong about this, but I'd really think I'd rather pay to get Virgil's autograph at this point... Hear me out, at least you could have a conversation with Virgil. And chances are, you could pull up a chair and pick his brain about what he has seen in the business for hours on end while you wait for the next mark to come and get an autograph. I can tell you from personal experience that the line for Misawa autographs was the prototypical Internet Wrestling mark that thinks that anything that happens 5,000 miles away from them in a distant land is better than anything that they can see in a ring in America. |

I heard stories for years from people and also on like a dozen wrestling websites that Virgil did autograph shows for a few bucks and also score a few chicks wearing his NWO shirt.......something just aint right with that, I feel sorry for him in a comedic way......

I can tell you from personal experience that the line for Misawa autographs was the prototypical Internet Wrestling mark that thinks that anything that happens 5,000 miles away from them in a distant land is better than anything that they can see in a ring in America. It was moreso a prime example what a problem ROH has with organization and security. I mean I'm sure all of us who attended Night 2 in NYC know full well of the drunk guy in Section A (Exact opposite corner of the entrance ramp) who would not stop yelling and trying to put himself over FOR THE ENTIRE NIGHT. Yet ROH "security" never did one damn thing about it. The guy in front of me smoked nearly a whole pack of cigarettes and three joints as the show went on. "Security" never saw a damn thing. And he wasn't even that hard to see. It really was a pathetic thing to see from such a company. Until of course you got to the NOAH signing that same night. No security present. No officials. No organiztion. Nuh. Thing. The fans worked out a line to start from one area into the next, then it snowballed to where three different lines formed, people who waited 20 minutes were skipped by people there 20 seconds, and it got to the point where if you asked the right person, you could just walk up and get an autograph with your ticket. Horrendous. Needless to say, ROH needs some legit security instead of their students trying to act as some sort of enforcement, because they really didn't do a damn thing GBH weekend. NOAH had to have take some sort of notice in regards to the steps that ROH neglected to take in handling with the meet and greet with their top stars. |

Ask him how do you spell Virgil, anything other than M A N is bull.
