OK guys, I'm new to this board, but have been a Cardinals fan since 1979, and just wanted to share a story with those of you who are interested. Went to a Sports Memorabilia show and Autograph session the other day to meet Jim Hart. We got there about a half hour before he was to start signing, and was walking around killing time, when I spotted Mr. Hart sitting on a bench behind a sportscard booth, kind of out of the way of the main stream of people. He was talking to a HOF DB for the Vikings(sorry bad with names), when I approached him and introduced myself. At that time someone called for the ex Viking, and left Jim with me, and we had a one-on-one conversation for about 25 minutes. He let me ask him anything about his career I could think of,who his favorite receiver was, what his best game was, his coldest game,(1969 at Packers) who he hated to play the most(he said Washington). He also posed for pictures with me and my wife, and autographed a helmet for us. After I introduced myself he could of made up some excuse and left, but he did'nt, he spent 25 minutes out of his day to make a lifelong Cardinals fan one more memory. This guy is a class act, and is very interested in his fans, and answering questions. Just thought some of you cards fans would get a kick out of my story
