The stop in Danville led to this tremendous story about an anonymous bystander who did an outstanding deed at the Liggins’ signing:
[QUOTE]
Soon it became obvious they did not have enough money to pay for autographs and some were going to have to leave without getting an autograph. That’s when she approached the youngsters, briefly talked to them and then offered to spend the $50 it would take for an autograph package so all four could leave the store with Liggins’ signature.
“There was no way I was going to let them walk out without an autograph,” said the kind-hearted woman who never gave the youngsters her name. “I am not rich, but I am fortunate to have a good job, my husband has a good job and we have a nice home. Whatever it takes to make those kids happy, that’s what I was going to do.
“I didn’t know them. But that could have been me as a kid and I know I would have been heartbroken. I would be even now because I love Kentucky basketball so much. What’s $50? I can make that in two hours. What’s two hours of my time worth compared to the happiness of those four kids?”
She insisted on remaining anonymous.
“I didn’t do this for any notoriety. I just knew how they would feel if they didn’t get that autograph,” she said. “I would do anything for kids and this was really a small thing to do.”
