So I was cleaning up some today and found this old program from 1971. It was "Charlie Davis Night". My sister was friends with Ed Bradley, so she had arranged for me to go under the bleachers outside the locker room and get autographs. I idolized CD. I did get his autograph, but I'm embarrassed to say that it came at the expense of a Gil McGregor autograph. I gave Gil this program and asked him to sign it, he had pen in hand and was starting to sign it. Then my sister yelled out to me that CD had just walked in. I ripped the program from Gil's hands and took it to Charlie. Still feel horrible about that today, even though I was only 12 at the time and completely intimidated and in awe of everyone. Also, somehow got Larry Russell and Larry Hopkins, Ed must have arranged those, I don't remember. Thought I would share. Might have to frame this sucker!
