Hello. This is my first time as VIP for the convention so I am definitely taking part in the Q&A and autograph sessions. But I had some questions: 1. How are they handled? I know they have the numbering systems like card show but is it basically like a conveyor belt of fans with a row of wrestlers available for autos? 2. How do you deal with people who you either don't know well (like Larry Sharpe, Angelo Mosca for example) or people you don't really care too much about (Rockin Robin for example). I mean I would like to get a auto because it seems kind of a jerk move to get auto from the person besides you but skip you. 3. Has anyone seen the program? I was planning on getting my autographs put on the program and wonder if they are situated so I don't look like an idiot trying to flip through pages for each guy. Just curious

1. As far as I know (at least from the first convention). Wrestlers are sitting at a table and the fans walk by and get sigs. Conveyer belt like.
2. With photos only costing $2 and $3 just grab one of those you don't know well or care about. That way you won't feel uncomfortable ignoring or passing them by. (You have to love how people feel about certain wrestlers. Believe it or not, I bought my VIP ticket based on the fact that Rockin Robin was booked. The rest of the talent was added later! LOL).
3. Again, I only saw the program from the last one I attended and it was nicely laid out, with several wrestlers per page.
Hope that helps a little bit.

They are all setting at a long table on the auto. stage. You walk along in front of them as they sign, then step along to the next star (they are setting side by side). Here is a good pic of the auto line. www.nwalegends.com/photos/bc2.jpg

Getting your program signed is a very good way of handling someone who's autograph you weren't too interested in getting or didn't have anything else for them to sign. Since the line moves fast it's not like you have any real time to talk with them at this point beyond a hello or thank you.

Program...photo...lanyard (if they're still doing lanyards this year)...all nice things to get signed by people who don't have many items available.
Or, if you have a friend at the show, get something extra autographed for them.

Maybe Baby Doll but I should find some nice pin up of her.

Now, can we get photos with the wrestlers in the lines? I'm not going to have money for the photo session, but I'm hoping to get a quick picture with a few wrestlers.
