Because of all the interest in this thread, I've place all of the video content of Patrick Mahomes II's college career, and draft day goodness into a single post that can be found here. Enjoy! [Reply]

I get if you want an autograph. But to be so obsessed with it that you bother a dude who's in the middle of something is something else. Being pushy about it is another level. And worse you make these guys look like assholes when they probably spent hours signing them already. Have some fucking social awareness. I don't understand the entitlement over a damn piece of paper
Couldn't agree more.
I've thought about what I would say if I ever saw him anywhere. I probably never will, but I've thought about it some. I don't think I could bring myself to ask for a picture or anything from him. I'd probably just tell him I'm a big fan.
I'd feel like a total asshole if I interrupted his day any more than that. [Reply]

I don't even think I could walk up to him. I'd just be imagining him thinking "what's this fat fucking dude want?" Might be able to with my kid though. [Reply]

Me and my buddies ran into Tyreek hill once. Told him I was a huge fan and read his body language that he didn't want to talk football. So I dropped it. We all bought some drinks, played some pickup games, and I could tell he appreciated that we didn't treat him like anything special. Few guys came up to him and asked his autograph while he was chilling and I can tell he was annoyed by it.
I feel like Kelce and mahomes would be really polite about it. But man, these guys just really strike me as down to earth guys who'd be a blast to have a beer with. Instead most people seem more interested in using their interaction for social media clout instead of just hanging out. [Reply]

I would much prefer buying them a drink and chat them up than getting an autograph or item from them and I am they would as well, I still remember playing a round of got with Kevin Hatcher and his dad when I was 12 , but I do t even know where my Wayne Gretzky signed item my mom got me .I never asked Kevin for his signature even at 12 years old I knew it seemed weird , you could tell he appreciated it.
