Aaron Rodgers Refuses to Sign for 'Autograph Hound' After Testing His NFL Game Knowledge

LAKE TAHOE, CALIFORNIA, JUL 11 – Aaron Rodgers refused to sign one fan's autograph after suspecting he was a reseller during the Lake Tahoe celebrity golf event, where many athletes gather annually.

  • Aaron Rodgers, the new Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback, refused to sign an autograph for a fan during the American Century Championship golf tournament on July 10, 2025, in Lake Tahoe.
  • Rodgers questioned the fan about a 2005 Packers-Saints game the fan claimed to have attended, suspecting the fan might be an autograph reseller rather than a genuine supporter.
  • During the exchange, Rodgers refused to provide an autograph, remarking that he wouldn't sign it because he doubted the fan's claim, and he referred to the person as an "autograph hound."
  • In his rookie season during the 2005 game, Rodgers completed just one pass in the Packers’ 52-3 victory; he recalled telling the autograph seeker that he wouldn’t sign their item because he doubted their sincerity.
  • This episode highlights Rodgers' cautious approach to autograph requests amid booming sports memorabilia reselling, as he selectively signs autographs and prepares to start Steelers training camp later this month.
