    Paul Molitor signing today

    Hello,
    I went to a Paul Molitor signing today in Waukesha, Wi. I met up with another forum member Jeff (Trublubrucru) there. I was able to get my 1980-1983 L.S. bat signed and Jeff had his 1990 Molitor game used helmet signed. Paul was great as always he took time to talk and take pictures with everyone there.

        dcrules01,
        Paul was great today he talked to everyone that was there, he also was nice enough to take pictures with you if you asked him. He signed the items were you asked and you can actually read his signature. It was a great time today to be able to see one of my heroes growing up, just a class act!!

          I ran into Paul in Baltimore after a show. He was in the hotel lobby with his wife and I was headed to the parking garage. Anyway, I stopped and said hello and he was super friendly - just a class guy.

                How often do you see a Hall of Famer talk, shake everyones hand,pose for all pictures, and actually act liked he wanted to be there. Molitor was a truely memorable signer in a wolrd of cattle call run throughs were some wont even look up or talk too much. He asked all the kids names and ages and conversed with anyone asking questioned. He even bantered with Jamie and me about our game used items. Molitor is an A1(or a mears A10) class act

                  I got his auto years ago outside Tiger Stadium. Classy guy like Andre Dawson was my first opinion. You hate to see guys like that retire. Great numbers for a great guy..........

                      Just like everyone else has stated, Molitor is a a very classy guy. One of the most famous players to have ever played for the Burlington Bees he came back to Burlington to do an autograph signing when I was just a little kid. Although it was many years ago I still remember Paul being very friendly and actually willing to chat with the fans. Great player and great guy.

                        My wife Linda grew up in Wisconsin and Paul Molitor was her hero.
                        When he was inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame we were there, she wearing his game worn Brewers and me his game worn Blue Jays.
                        There is a common thread of class and decency when it comes to discussing Paul Molitor, it all applies.
                        He remains one of our all time favorites, heck, we even named one of the cats after him!

                            Sounds like Belle really knew how to treat the fans . Skyking, you ever met Dunn? Seems like a big friendly guy who is ready to fire jokes right back at the fans in my one experience with him. Still waiting on the big guy to sign somewhere.
