I got his autograph back in 2011 at that address. Of course I pretended to be a kid in order to get it. Got lucky doing that as he has never signed through the mail. Didn't want to disappoint the "kid" I guess. Have to play dirty to get an autograph sometimes. Even got the real authentic Wayne Gretzky autographs through the mail back then by pretending to be a 12 year old.
This helps me sometimes. I'm not 12, but my letter writing skills and handwriting are so bad that I'm sure they come across as being written by a kid.
As far as the note, I bet they have many different versions of this typed up with the words "ball", "card", "picture", "bat", "glove" and his PR people just insert the one that fits.
