When I heard that MLG Anaheim was going to be held during my 2 week stay near where I grew up in Los Angeles I was like oh, something to do for a weekend. I don't really watch that much sc2 and spend >80% of my esports viewing time with bw, but when I heard that Boxer was going to be there I freaking exploded and knew what I had to do. I had to get him to sign my SKT1 shirt. I won the chance to buy an SKT1 shirt a few years ago thanks to lilsusie (<3) and I actually wore it quite frequently but the moment I heard I could get a chance to meet the emperor himself I knew I had to get it signed and on my wall.
On day 1, I knew Boxer was going to be doing a signing/photo op around 1 but me and my friend missed it because of the ridiculously long line for tickets. At that point I was thinking I was screwed because I knew that it would be difficult to find time to get an autograph when Boxer would be trying to focus on his games. Wandering around my buddy suddenly poked me and pointed out Boxer, walking with Milkis+Jessica+a group of people, apparentlydoing an interview near the MLG poster near the front of the venue. Milkis preemptively warded off the growing number of fans surrounding the group and told them that Boxer was busy and didn't have time. I was disappointed but I did snag a few pics of Boxer and my friend took a picture with Jessica.
As soon as the interview ended I went up to Milkis and asked if I could get a signature and Milkis told me to just go ask him (Milkis is a total boss). I managed to grab Boxer before he could leave and anyone else could get him and he was surprisingly nice about it. Boxer definitely recognized his old team but didn't really comment on it besides saying "ohh t1". I had my pen and my shirt ready and then I realized, how the f do you sign a shirt without a table. I offered to let him use my back as a flat surface but Boxer being the emperor he is called Jessica over and we held it taught while he signed it. It was a pretty surreal experience and I'm pretty sure I was grinning ear to ear the whole time. Thanks to Boxer for being a boss and thanks to MLG for providing this experience!

You are one of the luckiest men on Earth, and I kind of hate you right now.

those will always be the official SKT T1 uniforms in my opinion. the new orange uniforms so hideous.

You are so lucky, you met the emperor himself ! I hope I'll get my SKT shirt signed by Bisu this Saturday, but Chinese fans are hysterical so he'll have 34528769 bodyguards to protect him
In the end, lilsusie > all.

I have to say, after Boxer left SKT I kind of stopped liking the team haha. I hope KT wins this saturday so at least I can say ohh its okay STX and Woongjin lost to the PL champs. GL with getting Bisu's autograph though!

I guess i just think the red ones look the best, though the white/blue ones are also good i think everyone will agree the orange ones is a definite step down

And yeah, my T1 shirt signed by best doesn't hold a candle to that, you lucky SoB.

GAWD I was going to do the same, I have the same SKT1 shirt (thx susie), I even have a BoxeR mousepad somewhere, but I got a fever right before MLG and had to miss it .
Congrats man, hope you're framing that.

EFF didn't get an autograph (brought a DT-35 for him to sign)
Good for you, OP
|
WHAT A JERK. Jealousy abounds.

Lucky
I tried to get Boxer's autograph, but no chance presented itself
At least I got MMA's and Alicia's.
