I doubt J-Will will be at this event today. It appears he's forgotten what a book even looks like.

I wish they would put the kids' cheerleading unis on sale. We need new ones for the girls for the fall. I'm not looking forward to making that purchase.

Anyone attend? Let us know how the turnout was or if there was any news coverage.

I got there at 1:05. The signing was officially over so there were just a few people left. No news coverage and just a couple of people left in line.

Really nice guy, no b.s., not a used car salesman at all but definitely comfortable selling the program. I'm from the Panhandle (God's country) and he seemed like he could have been a dirt farmer from Hereford or Clarendon. Said he never meant for a book to be written but that he was cool with it after the author described how he wanted to present it and he ended up really liking the book.

I thought the event was only supposed to be from 12-1. I got there a couple of minutes past noon, and stayed in the store for almost 30 minutes, and there was always a small group in line. Good turnout for the Jedi!

I was there early. JJ arrived about 11:45 and started signing books then. So, it's nice he stayed as long as he did. He is very personable.

I got there at 12:50 p.m. No one in line in front of me. Walked right up and had him sign the two books I bought. One for me, one for a friend in Conroe. Talked for a couple of minutes about J-Will and the new unis. A down-to-Earth guy who knows what he wants out of his team and knows how to sell the program to the fans and the fans-to-be. I'm ready for Aug. 29th!

I was there at noon. Probably five people in front of me. He was there solo. Said he is settled into his football position, now he needs to find a house.
