We went to the Kane signing on 1/31 at the University of Pittsburgh. I was a little worried because it was for Pitt students and I thought they might turn us away. Thankfully they didn't, we would have been devastated. Turned out the first 50 students got free Polaroid's and they just skipped over us because we were not students.

We waited for a while then heard a lot of screams. That's when the excitement kicked in. I kept thinking OK...Kane is in the building lets get this show on the road. The line finally started moving and when we first got near the door and could see Kane I almost died. I couldn't stop gawking at the poor man. We had to wait in line and go to the Godfather's table first. I paid absolutely no attention to the Godfather and kept on staring at the gorgeous man at the next table. I can't even remember if I said thank you for the autograph. My nephew went around next to the Godfather and I went to take a picture and we were scolded. You weren't supposed to go in back of the table for a picture. Godfather said "aww come on, go ahead and take the picture." I quickly took the picture and moved to the next table.

There was no one at Kane's table and he sort of was watching us come over. I was trying to charge the flash on my camera and gawking at the same time. My nephew gave him his 8 by 10 for an autograph while I was fiddling with my camera never taking my eyes off him. He signed the autograph and the guy was nice enough to take a Polaroid of him with Kane. He shook my nephews hand and signed the Polaroid also. Then I gave him my 8 by 10. He signed it and reached out his hand. I shook his hand and said thank you while looking into his eyes. He nodded. Talk about getting weak in the knees! I wanted to say something to him but I was speechless! Anything that would have come out of my mouth at that point would have made me sound like a blubbering idiot. His hand shake was firm and he had the glove on with his fingers sticking out. I was amazed at how big his hands were. I asked him if I could come back for a picture..he nodded yes. I gave my nephew the camera and started to go behind the table and the guy shuffled us away. I guess we took too much time and the line was backing up. I was very disappointed.

We went to Val Venis's table next and he was chatting with my nephew. Seems like a nice guy. I of course wasn't paying attention and was still gawking at Kane.

After we were finished I went back over to Kane's table and took a few more pictures. He looked into the camera a few times for me which was nice. As we were leaving I noticed my hand smelled like cologne. Couldn't figure out what it was though. I thoroughly embarrassed my nephew by smelling my hand!

At one point I noticed a girl saying something to him and he said something back and they laughed. I also noticed him adjusting his mask a lot. Must be hard wearing that thing for so long while doing those things. All in all it was a wonderful experience.
