A few players have typically signed autographs on each day (not on their way out to practice, but on the way in....before lunch and at the end of the day). On Fan Appreciation Day, at least last year, the entire team signed for a good period of time. I believe the coaches signed too. Basically they lined up about 20 rows of 8 foot tables. Each row consisted of about 5 players (and it was kinda like a pack of baseball cards...you'd get one or 2 starters, a rookie, and a few guys who may not even make the team). I only went to the 2nd practice last year, and it was after the 2nd practice that they signed. One note....while the lines were extremely long last year, and appeared to be pretty overwhelming, I will say that they moved quickly. They give you a sheet of paper with all of the names of the players, and which row they're signing in. Last year, the rows that had Arrington, Bruce Smith, and Champ were the "hot" rows.....thus, a little longer than others. I had my 1 year old with me, and was able to make it around the line 3 times. WELL worth it. Oh yeah, and they do practice, and you can take photos (but I doubt if they allow any video).

Video isn't permitted, but you can bring a regular camera for still shots.

I wasn't there for Fan Day last year, but after the regular practices, you'll generally see 4 or 5 players making their rounds along the rope line signing autographs. But if you want to get a bunch of autographs, I'm sure the Fan Day thing is the way to go.

I'll be there from Saturday the 31st through Friday the 6th. Won't be there on Fan Day, though.
