Today the Twin Cities Sports Collectors Club had a show in Bloomington where they had a couple former hockey players show up to sign autographs. I am not into collecting hockey but one of the guys was Steve Christoff. Steve was a star on the 1980 US Olympic Hockey team and since the show where I got a couple autographs on the cover of two of the Sports Illustrated magazines, I thought I would add Steve’s to them. With Steve was Tim Harrer who was the last person cut from the 1980 team. You could get one autograph of each guy for $10. Cami wanted to come along so we headed down. We ended up getting there an hour before they were to sign so we went in and looked around and bought our tickets. We found a seller selling boxes of Topps series 2 baseball cards so we bought a box and went to the car to wait. We opened each pack while waiting. Cami thought the cool cards were the ones that had cool pictures on them rather than WHO was on them. We had a lot of fun ripping the packs open.
It was then time to head in to get the autographs. We got Steve’s first. He signed a photo and the two SI’s and then we got Tim to sign a couple photos from his days with the Gophers hockey team. He signed one “To Cami”. She liked it.
We then raced home and Caden and I headed to meet up with Tony and Brandon to go to the Saints game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
