Getting a letter to an active player?

     This is a question I have been wondering for awhile. Ever since I was a pretty young child, I was writing fan letters to my favorite players. Much to my dismay, I never got anything back, and wondered if the letter ever even made it to the address I sent it. 

    I must have written dozens of letters to celebrities I admired when I was younger, but only got one response. That was when I wrote to the Irwins (remember Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter?) all the way in Australia and got a letter back a full year later. I had forgotten about that.

    Do any of y'all have any experience where you've written a fan letter to one of your favorite active players and got anything back? I don't even know if most stars even read fan mail anymore unless you pay a truck bed full of money for it. 

    Thanks for reading the blog and for humoring me. Have a great week, and happy collecting!
