Autographs of the Ducks

One of my packaging vendors at my work gave us some tickets for a special Ducks event for season ticket holders.  It was an opportunity to meet and get autographs of the players.  It was pretty fun and they had free hot dogs, drinks, popcorn and chips.  Pretty nice.  Nothing's ever free.

We started by heading to the team store to get something easy to get autographed besides our hockey sweaters since it's too hard to write while on our backs.
Our first autograph is of Corey Perry.  Surprisingly Makayla let him sign her jersey, but she wouldn't look at him.  It was so funny.
Next is Robbie Niedermayer.  Again, she sat real still and let him sign.  He even tried talking to her and he was super nice but she didn't look at him either.  
One of our favorite players and a cutie pie is Ryan Getzlaf, his line was long!

Then the very last autograph was Chris Pronger and then Makayla was pretty much over it.  That was enough lines and she did great and was so patient.  Ryan got two more autographs of Bobby Ryan and Brendan Morrison while Makayla and I went to get food and find the balloon guy.  Fun night and pretty memorable to meet these guys!
