Welcome to another bonus in person graphing post. Today was the second day of the Texans training camp and even after yesterday's crushing defeat with noone signing autographs we headed back to try again. We arrived around eleven in the morning and headed into the training facility to find our spot. Today I brought my daughter Winter and one of her friends with me. After getting through security we arrived at our usual spot and watched today's practice. The Texans are looking pretty good and as long as they can keep the injuries down this year they might have a great season. After watching practice for a little while I noticed J.J. Watt and some other defensive players doing drills in the back corner so we decided to go hang out there hoping J.J. would come over and sign when they finished up. Unfortunately alot of others has the same idea and the area quickly filled up to watch Watt. Close to the end of practice J.J. and the others moved back closer to the main field and closer to the autograph line. Luckily when J.J. went 99.9 % of the fans waiting rushed to that side of the practice field with him. I decided we'd just hang out there and see what happens along with a few other fans that stayed and if nothing else we could rush back to the main area if we needed to. At the very end of today's practice the stars aligned and just like I hoped J.J. walked back over by himself and did a few things with the tackling dummies and when he finished he walked right over to the few fans still waiting. He was super nice and talked with everyone while taking pictures with people and signing autographs. Winter and her friend both had him sign a mini football and I got my picture signed. By this time others noticed him signing and the crowd quickly grew. He still signed a bunch of people's stuff but when it got to be to many people he stopped and headed inside for the day. By the time we finished with Watt we noticed thirteen other players heading to the autograph line so we walked back over just in time to get them to sign. This definitely made up for noone signing the day before and we all had a great time meeting the players and getting autographs. After they signed for pretty much everyone in line they headed inside and we headed home with a smile on our faces and a total of 38 autographs between the three off us including three J.J. Watt autographs. I'm expecting that more fans will be in attendance tomorrow since it's Saturday and hopefully doesn't put the players off signing. Anyways you can guess what we'll be doing tomorrow but until then enjoy a few pictures and our autographs from our second day at the Houston Texans training camp.
