Nothing sells better than signed merch. to many players, the reps showing up with a stack of items and a sharpie to be signed is a chore. But to Phenssta, that day is basically like Christmas, except with the added joy of knowing that you're "gift" is going to boost team sales! Who wouldn't be excited by that idea? Phenssta signs it all, really. Jerseys, footballs, helmets, tiny replica helmets, cleats, replica submarines. Pretty much anything that is put in front of him will leave with a signature. But Phenssta's favorite collectible to sign are the Dotts player cards. Growing up, he collected the cards of his favorite prospects and players and seeing himself represented so beautifully on those cards is a literal dream come true. So he loves signing the cards to continue the traditions and get the next generation of fans invested in the hobby. Sometimes, he'll even hold a few back and send them out with his responses to the fan mail that trickles in once in a while.
