This is a prime example of why I carry my baseball cards with me most of the time when I'm out and about. This evening, January 28, 2021, my son and I drove to Play It Again Sports so that I could look to buy him a catchers glove. The young man behind the counter says to us, "You just missed Alfonso Soriano!" He then added, "I think his Rolls Royce is still in the parking lot". I thanked the guy and immediately walked to my truck with my son to get our cards. My son and I waited in the parking lot, about 100 feet or so away from where his car was parked, just outside of Play It Again Sports and a Sushi restaurant, which I assumed is where he was. Around 7:30pm, he walked out! I called out his name and asked for an autograph. He waived my son and I over to him and we quickly put our masks on and approached him sitting in his car. He signed my 2008 Upper Deck baseball card and a 2009 Upper Deck card for my son and we were on our way!
