On this day Sterling and Earl set out to get some WWF autographs. We showed up at the Venue way too early (the security wasn't even there yet) and as a result had quite a wait ahead of us. Things started heating up once it got closer to the event. The first WWF person on the scene was Bossman, but you can read that encounter in his section if you want to find out more. We had our first success of the day and hoped that we would have many more by the end of it.
It wasn't much longer until we spotted Stone Cold Steve Austin driving into the gated area. At this moment in time all of the fans, including us, were inside the parked area because security wasn't there. Once Austin spotted fans in there, he immediately backed up and took off.
He came back a minute later and drove quickly past us and down a ramp where he confronted security. Security came up and told everyone to get out of the fenced area and told us a couple of rules before he parked. The security guard is a nice guy but had to tell everyone that Stone Cold is serious about us following his rules and wouldn't come out unless we obeyed them, yikes.
The first and second rules were that we couldn't ask for autographs or shout out his name. The third rule was that we weren't allowed to take any pictures of him as he walked by, jeez what a grump. He eventually got out of the vehicle and kept his head either low or in the other direction ignoring us completely.
We did disobey one rule however as Earl quickly snapped a picture of him walking past us, ha ha. A couple of the fans we were with also gave him an earful for being so... well Stone Cold. Austin is just a really nasty celebrity to come across, if you meet him beware!
We came across many wrestlers later in the day that also either ignored fans or didn't come over to sign, here are some of them: Kurt Angle (walk by), Undertaker (walk by), The Godfather (refused), Triple H (totally ignored fans), Kane (walk by), The Hardy's and Lita (walk by), The Big Show (ignored fans), among others. People that we did get to meet were Edge, K-Kwik, Raven, D-Von Dudley, and Bossman read their sections to find out more.
