For those of you lucky enough to have access to the players, what has been your worst encounter with a player.
For me Tie Domi was a major idiot. He told me to Fuck off when I asked him to sign a photo.

Don't feel bad, Domi was never a real hockey player anyways.

Biggest dickhead I ever met. We were in the same Buffalo hotel. Told him I was from Windsor (his hometown area) and we were in town for the game. Blew me off, and one of the guys in my group saw him roll his eyes after walking by me. I wasn't even asking for a sig. KMA Tie, you get what you give. If you're not nicer to people, your wife might kick your ass to the curb. Oh, wait a minute, I think that already happened.............................

Although I guess I can say that I was lucky enough to get his autograph, I would concur that he was anything but nice about it. Great how some of the greatest hall of famers thank us for asking for an autograph and yet those who are only too lucky to have a career treat fans like crap.

You're right Shelby, the older guys are the best.

I wrote to Mr. Binkley a few years ago and he signed my two cards and wrote a nice letter thanking me for not forgetting him and the other Penguins players from the 1960's. I was hoping to write him again recently but I have misplaced his address. Bink is a true classy guy.

I would say besides Messier, Barrasso, the worst I have encountered would be Glenn Anderson.

Stopped by Feb Fest last year, wouldn't sign for little kids and charged a buddy of mine 250$ to get a stick signed. Totally ridiculous, he may have been a good player but I think 250$ is robbery.
