Troy Aikman one year forgot to buy candy to give out on Halloween. He had football cards lying around so he autographed those and gave them out instead. The next year he gave out candy, twice as many kids showed up and were bummed because they wanted autographed cards instead.

How about this Bears fan, who despite Soldier Field only approving bags that are limited to clear plastic and do not exceed 12"x 6"x 12", somehow snuck a whole Pumpkin Pie in:
While I don’t know who that fan is, I know who it’s not…Vince Williams - former linebacker for the Steelers.
Maybe it’s Mel Kiper, who eats pumpkin pie every day. He goes through 2-3 pies a week.
