Wayne Gretzky has three Canadian book signing appearances and one of them is in Barrie.
The Great One will be autographing "99: Stories of the Game" at the Chapters at 76 Barrie View Drive from 4 to 6 p.m. today.
When the store opens at 10 a.m., 400 wrist bands will be handed out to fans who purchase the book.
Those people will be able to line up later Sunday afternoon for a chance to spend a moment with hockey royalty and the man considered by many to be the greatest player ever.
When he retired in 1999, Gretzky held sixty-one separate NHL records and his honours included thirty-one major trophies and awards.
The book hit store shelves on Saturday and was released to mark the NHL's ninety-ninth anniversary.
It is billed as the NHL's most memorable moments from The Great One's point of view and includes never-before-published stories about the great players and great characters who have inspired him.
