Sadly they were signing autographs from 2:00PM to 3:30PM. My shift was supposed to end at 3:30, but I asked my co-workers and they were nice enough to let me leave early. I booked it to the Bell Mobility store on Georgia and Burrard and got there at 3:15. No line-up, so I walked right up to Kesler and asked for his autograph.
I told him he had a nice pass yesterday, and he said thanks. Hope I didn't slur the word pass too much, cause if he heard something else then...
I told him I came on short notice and didn't have anything for him to sign. Before I left the office I looked for something for him to sign, but couldn't find anything, so I ended grabbing the sports section of the Vancouver Sun. Kelser had a stack of Blackberry Storm cards to sign, rendering my newspaper worthless.
He signed the card, passed it to me and then asked if I wanted my newspaper signed. I laughed it off and said no, but secretly kind of wanted him to. Wished him good luck for tomorrows game and left.
On my way back to the car, it was raining so I wrapped the card in the newspaper (score one for Steven). It wasn't till I was in my car driving home that I realized that I totally forgot to get a picture, and it was too late to go back.
Nice guy, didn't have much to say. I was going to start drawing up plays for him on my newspaper, but I wussed out. His autograph kind of looks like Brian Ok 17:
