Greg Townsend Autograph Signing

Greg Townsend made one of his many appearances at the Raider Image in Ontario. The Raider Image in Ontario is Greg's second home. He practically lives there. I headed to this event knowing that it would be another easy autograph session.

I found some of Greg's football cards in my collection and knew I wanted to get them signed. When I arrived in the late afternoon only a few kids were in line getting autographs.  I only took football cards since greg signs them for a reasonable price. He signed my cards and we talked about the upcoming football season for a bit.

Signing Recap: 

• People in line when I arrived? 2 kids. 
• Free signing? No, he charged me $5.00 for each card signed. 
• Items per person? As many as you wanted. You would just have to keep feeding him money.
• Giveaways? None.
• City of the event? Ontario. 

This is what Greg had to offer fans that didn't bring their 

own items. Everything on this table was for sale. He also mentioned 

his new book when we talked. It's pictured in the bottom right corner.

Greg's real money maker is charging fans for photo 

ops at $5 a pop. Here I am with Greg on December 2, 2009.

Here I am with Greg on May 8, 2011.

Here I am with Greg on September 17, 2011.

Another photo with Greg on September 17, 2011.

Last but not least. Here I am with Greg in our most recent photo.

Greg is the only person that I'v ever paid for a photo op. All combined I'v paid Greg $20 just to take pictures with him. The truth is I don't mind since he never made nearly as much money as current football players. Will this be the last Greg Townsend appearance I attend? Probably not. It's always an easy meet and greet autograph session and he may need the money. 

Thanks to The Raider Image in Ontario and Greg Townsend for this appearance.

Greg Townsend Autograph Signing

The last six signings that I have attended have been right after work in the Ontario area. This time it was for another Greg Townsend appearance at the Raider Image. I couldn't make it out to the Luc Robitaille appearance in San Bernardino so I ended up heading out to Ontario instead.

When I arrived there was only one person in line. I got my items signed and talked some football with Greg. He told me that he thinks the Raiders have a good chance at making the playoffs this season. I hope they don't. I'm not a Raider hater but I'm not a Raiders fan if that makes any sense.

Signing Recap:

• People in line? 1 person when I arrived.
• Giveaways? None.
• Which Raider Image location? Ontario.
• Free signing? No.

Here is Greg holding my two big autographed cards. He was selling shirts like the one he is wearing. I didn't bother asking him for the price of each shirt. Maybe if I was a Raiders fan.

Greg charged me $5 to take a photo with him.

I figured I would get my moneys worth and ask him for a second pose.

Greg Townsend Autograph Signing

The Raider's all time sack leader Greg Townsend made an appearance at a Raider Image store in the Ontario Mills Mall. When I arrived the the Mall was packed but the Raider Image store was empty. Greg was there just talking with a few fans.

This was not a free signing. Fans had to purchase an item from the Raider Image store or Greg to get an autograph. Greg had football cards and photos available that he would sign after being purchased. I had a Raider Image gift card good for $25 and used it to purchase a mini helmet for $29.99. I just paid the difference out of pocket. Since I made a purchase it entitled me to the free autograph.

Signing Recap:

• People in line? Zero. I was in and out of the store in about 5 minutes.
• Free signing? Hell no. A purchase was necessary.
• Giveaways? None, but a lot of girls were walking around.
• Which Raider Image location? Ontario.

I asked Greg if he could inscribe Super Bowl XVIII on my mini helmet. He wanted to charge me $10 for the inscription. I told him "nevermind".

Greg is 16th on the NFL's all time sack list with 109.5 sacks. I'm glad I was able to meet him again. I say that because I also attended a Greg Townsend appearance at the same Raider Image store a couple of years ago. If you would like to read about that signing then click on the link here.

Thanks to Raider Image and Greg Townsend for this appearance.
