I wasn't sure how this was going to work, since I never
know how these autograph signings go. But we went
for it any way, they met me at my house and then
followed me to the Harley dealership. When we got
there Mongo was already there, so when he saw me he
waved me to the front of the line. I had to laugh when
he saw the TV crew, he was like wow! He ask them if
they were there to film him? When the camera guy said
no, that they were here to film me. Mongo then laughed
and said it figures even my stalker gets more publicity
than me.(Mongo calls me his personal stalker)
Mongo's giving me a
hard time, about why
he should be
signing any thing for
me. When I should
be giving him my
autograph, while the
camera catches all
on film
So when Keith arrives, Mongo fills him in on what i'm
doing with the film crew and that i'm having his
autograph tattooed on me. Keith even stated joking
with Mongo that he was going to be the one on the TV
show signing me and not him!
Keith Van Horne
signing my back
while the camera
man gets a close
I stay around after he signed me, in order for some of
the other Bear fans that were waiting in line to take
some pictures of my back. After saying goodbye to
Keith, Mongo and Misty(Mongos wife) we were off to
Bustos Tattoo, to have Keiths autograph tattooed in.
Arriving at Bustos
Oscar Busto doing his part
Now Oscar and the
camera man get the first
look at the finished
product
After Oscar was done, we headed back to my house to
finish filming at my house which lasted about another
hour or so. Now the bad news for me about this show
came about a week later, when I found out that FSN will
not be aired in the Chicagoland any more. So no one in
this area will even be able to view the show, but it will
be shown all the other areas that have FSN. Lucky me
for they will be sending me a tape of the show, that I will
post when I get it.
The 2006 season is approaching fast. Will anyone
remember me? People seem to remember The
Washington Redskins Hogettes or the Raiders
Hardcore fans that dress up every Sunday to show
their support for their teams. But will they remember
me the #1 Bear fan that shows his teams colors 365
days a year?
Well, I wasn't sure if anyone would. Intil a couple of
days ago when I received an e-mail from ESPN in NYC.
They are coming down for the Bears home opener
against Detroit and would like to interview me before
the game.
9-5-06: Georgia Evdoxiadis from the Daily Herald just
left my house, she is working on a follow-up story from
the original story that was written on Friday 13th 2005.
The interview went real good, I have gotten 30 more
autographs since the first story had ran, so they had to
take a lot more pictures than last time. She said the
story will probably run either this Saturday or Sunday
before the Packer game.
After she left I check my e-mail a received one from
NBC5 confirming that I was 1 of 11 Bear fans chosen
to be a blogger on NBC5 website, inwhich I'm really
excited about. I'll let you know when my first blog will
be ready for viewing.
I'll be updating this page this weekend to include what
is happening with my ESPN documentary that they will
be shooting before the Detroit game along with my
interview with www.current.tv So check back then

9-11-06 Well the Daily Herald ran their article on me
yesterday (9-10-06) And once again It made the front
page, Georgia Eudoxiadis did a great job. She even
contacted a couple of the players that have signed me
and got their thoughts about signing me. I'll post the
article later today.
