Well, one of the rules (for me anyway) is that when you get to this level, you cannot turn it off. Ever. Especially for kids. You're nice to them all of the time.
Howie Meeker talked about it in his biography. Asked if he ever felt like turning down an autograph, he replied that yeah, he felt like that on lots of occasions. But he remembered back to when he was a kid and Busher Jackson was more than happy to provide him with one when he was a little busy.
Ever hear of Iginla walking past anyone?
