character autographs

[skoba-nelson]

DW and I never had to know this before, or didn't notice, but when getting autographs from the characters do you need to supply the pen/sharpie? We are going in September with our soon to be 2 DS and might have him give the autograph books a try.

Some characters will have their own pens, but to be safe, having your own would be best.

Have fun!

Though sometimes a character's "handler" has a pen, it's best if you supply your own. Fat pens are best because they're easier for the characters to grasp. They sell cute character pens for about $3 in the parks, but you can find them cheaper at Wal-mart, etc.

By the way, my mom grew up in Lorain...I grew up in Amherst. I live in Cincinnati now.

I hope you have a wonderful trip in September!

The CMs prefer not to lend pens as many walk away and the one time I used one I felt like I was under watch. Bring a few fat/big pens because in the scramble to get in line quick I can never find one. Sharpies go through the books so not a great choice although we have had the characters sign hats and soccer balls with one.

Thanks for all th fast replies.

KMH1-

Did you graduate from Amherst? If you are the same age as Kevin (April 2003 - Kevin's 32nd bday), you and my brother are the same age. We grew up in downtown Amherst, across from Shupe School.
