btw, thanks alexandra

@WoodMo, i could have gotten to C-Webb he was also very nice, always smiling!
but he was sitting third from the end of the table and when i was done with Payton the guard said, i should not be staying at the back of their table. i guess i just didn't get the chance even when he was on the floor practicing but he did sign for me like 4 or 5 times!

funny, the assistants and guards were more strict than the actual players who were really friendly and accommodating!

Four (should be) future Hall of Famers in one day, Wow! That is such a cool story. You got a lot from them too. They are all really tough autographs to obtain as well.
