    Mike Tyson UK Dinner tour. Has anyone previously been???

    I was interested in going.

    The gold ticket package is £200 which is steeeep. It promises you a photo with Mike.

    However i have heard a few things that are putting me off.

    I heard he wont sign anything for you due to the auctions they have after and you only get a photo.

    I also read that he actually bolted after only taking one photo in one of the previous dinners and every one who paid an extra £150 or so for the photo got shafted.

    Has anyone been? What was it like? Did you get an autograph?

    Funny thing is i met Tyson at Jet nightclub in Vegas last year but seeing i was out with my friends and he was too i shock his hand but didnt have a pen for an autograph and didn't want to bother him for a photo in a night club when he was with his lady.

    SORRY MEANT TO PUT THIS IN THE OTHER FORUM.

    That's always the case with these sort of things; the promoters won't let them do it even if they want to. Even more so here, presumably, as they are charity gigs and presumably the auctions are a major source of the money raised.

      That sucks. Im not paying £200 if i cant even get his autograph. £200 for a photo, no way. Especially considering i already seen him and shock his hand.

        I know someone who went a Tyson dinner speech few years ago and said it was awesome. Think he paid around £500 for a ticket and got his pic with Tyson.

          You know if he got an autograph?

          I heard after one of the dinners a few people just went to his hotel and got pictures and autographs for free.

                    The £30 tix are stall tix. You only get a picture with him with the £200 ticket.

                    But i have heard people just walked upto his table and asked before and he said yes. I also heard he bailed after giving ONE of the many people who forked out for £300 a tick to get a picture.

                    Thank you to the person who said theyd call and ask.
