Wow you have quite a collection! I would love to get some of these peoples autographs but i live in the UK so I cant buy the stamps you put on SAEs which sucks because I really admire these gymnasts! I have all of the English teams autographs because I met them at British Champs when I was competing!

 

[flexiballetgirl]

Thaats really cool, I would love to write to international gymnasts, like Ksenia Semenova, If you write to people like Nadia and Mary Lou they probly wont have a problem buying stamps, check their web-sites, for Kerri Strung e-mail her agent and ask

Send a SASE and a picture or something for them to sign, Nadia is fast but Jonathan took 2 months...but her was training so I can see why

Facebook is sometimes hit or miss. I sent Hollie Vise a message and she sent a really nice one back. I'm FB friends with Amy Walker Pond and some other current and former gymnasts. I guess it just depends how busy they are

 

[Blazing15]

It's so hard with facebook though because you don't know if it's actually them or someone posing as them. I have seen so many posing as Shawn Johnson it's crazy. She doesn't have a public facebook but so many people think the one that they are friends with is really her.

Very true! You can usually tell by what network people are in. If they're in a school network esp. it's them because you need a specific e-mail to get it. The most famous gymnasts probably don't have them. So yeah with Nastia, Shawn, etc. it might not work. One of my friends went to Brown with Alicia and is good friends with her. She says she has a facebook but only adds people she knows back (and you can't search for it).
