This is more of an issue if you're a Cincinnati Bengals fan but has anyone ever had TTM success writing ballplayers in prison?

Good question.
I have never tried. What ex ballplayer (if any) is currently in jail?

WIllie Mays Aikens has signed for me from prison. He's a good signer and enjoys the mail.

Roy Tarpley (ex-mavs bballer) was in our County Jail for about 7 months in 2002-03. I was told that he received about 2 fan letters a day asking for his autograph.

I just had a success with Dwight Gooden. However, I sent to his home in Florida....and then three days after I sent it, he was sent to jail for a parole violation. I figured I'd never see it again. But two weeks ago I got it back from him.

Since Dontrelle Willis was arrested for failing a breathalyser test today in Florida we can write to him in jail now! :D

I once wrote to Dwight Gooden when he was in jail, and I got a response, too.

Didn't he play with Toronto? Is he still in prison today?
