Things are looking good so far for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The organization is coming off of a convincing 7-2 road victory over the Winnipeg Jets and already appear to be transferring their momentum from last season into the current one. With their success, Leaf fans finally have reason to appreciate their team again, so much, that they’re willing to accept an autograph on pretty much anything.
Toronto forward Nazem Kadri, who scored a goal and added an assist in the season opener, recalled a time when a fan asked him to sign a French fry. That’s right- an actual French fry.
Okay, so let’s break this down for one moment. First of all, would the fry not have broken if Kadri even attempted to give the lightest signature on it? Second of all- isn’t it too oily to even write anything on? And third of all- a French fry? For crying out loud, what on earth would a fan do with it after? Preserve it in the fridge where no one can see it?
We’ll be a bit more forgiving with the phone case scenario, because at least that won’t rot if it’s exposed outside of a fridge for more than 24 hours. This whole thing got us thinking about some other ridiculous signatures, so here’s a look at some other odd ones from the past.

Bizarre.
Well, if you find yourself at a McDonald’s tonight and an athlete happens to walk in, make sure you ask one of the employees for a Sharpie as soon as possible. If they’re a good sport about it, maybe they’ll even sign your Big Mac, too.
