One of those events being "Fan Day" at Aloha Stadium. That is when all the players show up in thier Pro Bowl Jerseys and greet fans, take pictures, sign autographs etc.

Yeah, I am a die hard Cowboys fan, and Irvin was AWESOME to the fans there. Emmitt Smith was even better, never missed an autograph, picture or handshake.

Aikman, that pri*k, came out of the locker room, walked straight under the goal posts into the middle of the field and started tossing a football around with some guys on the field. He never, ever even acknowledged that the fans were even there. Folks were calling out to him over and over to come over, and he would not even wave or even look thier way, just did his thing in his little world.

Great QB, and fantastic commentator.

But still a prick.

Not surprised by this at all... Aikman always struck me as a patrician type through and through... no time at all for the "lower classes."

... to give props where they're due he's better than most of the commentators.
