I've only met Hulk Hogan, no pic, but I got a frisbee XD
Pretty damn good for a 14 year old with parents who don't approve of wrestling.
My grandfather was on a plane and had a 30 minute discussion with Hulk Hogan a LOOOONG time ago, and had no clue who he was.

Ive met Curt Hennig Public Enemy Hawk and Animal The Sandman Christy Hemme Traci Brooks Wow, that's impressive! Autographs might be worth something, since Curt Hennig, the guys in Public Enemy, and Hawk aren't even alive anymore!

Traci's head looks small there, it's probably just the angle.
Closest I've come to meeting a wrestler is having four emails responded to.
Lance Storm answered my questions, both in Q&As on his site, and one or two personal responses.
Konnan was cool. He said, in response to my questions, that he's always proud to see guys he helped get a foot into US wrestling, like Rey, succeed. He also confirmed, yes, he did show Bret Hart the scorpion hold, which, as Bret Hart says, he adopted as his finisher, the sharpshooter.
Grandmaster Sexay Brian Lawler, at the height of his push in 2000 actually took the time to write me back, which shocked me, and was cool about it. I really wish I could remember what he said, though.
Austin Aries when he was The Austin Starr, a gimmick I still love. He answered in character, saying I was smart in that I said I loved his ring attire, and thought the Pendulum Elbow kicked ass. Still have that one saved.

I met a majority of them @ Booker T's PWA shows. The guests he brings in are available for autographs after the show, and some of them I met at WWE autograph signings and meeting them after WWE shows.
I sat with Homicide and ODB at Buffalo Wild Wings once. They're both great people.

$16.50 a ticket. I got a VIP package so I'm at the same seats every show. Front row, baby. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

Front row, baby. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Given the fact Booker seems to get some pretty big wrestlers in, that's not bad at all. How much do they charge for autographs/pics? Is it tough to get a word in with them, sort of a "rush you in, rush you out" deal? Sorry for hounding you, but as a fellow Texan, it sounds like it'd be a cool road trip.

It's $10 for a ticket voucher to meet the wrestlers. However, if it's a tag team, it's still $10, not $10 for each. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) I've been able to talk to them for a decent amount of time. I usually catch them at the Buffalo Wild Wings down the street about 90 minutes after the shows over.

Any good way to break the ice, you think? I know obviously spazzing out is a no-no, and being calm and light on the ass kissing is probably a must, at least, I assume it'd be.

I always compliment them on the match and tell them thanks for coming to Texas and all that jazz.
