INSIDE THE GAME: Whose autographs do you value, and why?

Maybe it’s just me, but it’s always sorta boggled my mind how people would lose their minds, dignity and a substantial portion of their financial resources for the scribbled signature of a person of some kind of renown.

I do admit that at one time, mostly when I was a kid, I sought autographs and I still have a few of them, the ones holding the most value to me personally from Minnie Minoso, Ernie Banks, some of the Minnesota Vikings “Purple People Eaters” from my first NFL game (a remnant obtained outside the venue, Wrigley Field) and one from Daniel “Rudy” Ruettiger that came from some very, very dear friends during the most difficult time of my life.

Demi Lovato Fan Reveals ‘Shi*ty’ Meet & Greet Story After Feeling Dismissed By Idol

Mike Peretz, a longtime Demi Lovato fan, details his ‘underwhelming’ $500 meet and greet experience with the singer after he tried to open up to her about his struggles with mental health. He claims Demi ‘blew him off,’ with her ‘sh-ty’ attitude.

Demi Lovato, 25, fans have recently started to complain that her $500 meet and greets have been more than upsetting. After she caught wind of tweets from fans expressing their disappointment in her attitude at the pre-concert sessions, she responded. Lovato took to Twitter to question if she should cancel meet and greets all together. And, one fan doesn’t mind if she does just that after his “underwhelming” encounter with her. Mike Peretz, 21 — who once declared Lovato as his idol before attending a meet and greet with the singer in Chicago on March 9 — tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY that she dismissed him when he expressed his struggles with mental health to her. One of the reasons he idolized Lovato, he reveals, is because she has been so candid about her own issues with mental health, such as bipolar and eating disorders.
