Gayle Sayers was signing autographs at a store inside the Mirage yesterday. The prices weren't bad, $79 for an 8x10 photo or $129 for a football (either a regular NFL ball or a ball with the Bears logo) which the store provided. You also got to shake his hand, talk with him, and get pictures taken with him. I'm not a Bears fan so I didn't get any autographs but it was still cool to be in the presence of a Hall of Fame running back.
This store mainly consisted of signed, framed pictures of athletes, musicians, and actors. The most interesting thing they had though was every US presidents picture and autograph, from Washington to Obama. It was a massive thing that was 2 framed displays that were probably each 4' by 7'. It costs $200,000.
