Who: Olympic Decathlete Bruce Jenner
Team: USA
Card: 2008 Allen & Ginter
Acquired: TTM (17 days)
Comments: When Bruce Jenner broke the Olympic record for point in the decathlon at the '76 Olympic Games (8,643) he was declared the World's Greatest Athlete. Today, the kids know him just as Kim Kardashian's step-father. That's okay for me though. Bruce is the man and I am pretty honored to have his autograph in my collection. The decathlon is one of the hardest competitions in all of sport and he absolutely owned it in 1976.
For me, this is probably my first autograph of someone outside of the baseball and football worlds.. and probably the first of a celebrity of some sort. Thanks, Bruce, for the autograph.
