Neal Broten In-Person Brad Maxwell Benefit Event

Fan HQ presents an in-person signing event with 1980 Olympic Gold Medalist and Minnesota hockey icon NEAL BROTEN!

On September 3, 2023, we lost one of our favorite people.  Minnesota North Stars all-star defenseman BRAD MAXWELL was an indispensable figure in the Minnesota hockey community.  We at Fan HQ became great friends with "Maxy" through his work as president of the Minnesota NHL Alumni Association.  Maxy helped us coordinate several signing events over the years, and was instrumental in putting together or North Stars Alumni Reunion event in 2012. 

Over a great many HQ and Alumni events, we were able to witness firsthand the kindness and generosity that made up the great character of this man who had once been so feared on the ice.  As president of the Minnesota NHL Alumni Association, Maxy always went out of his way to make sure people in the hockey community were taken care of -- from outfitting youth hockey teams with gear, to raising money for AED defibrillators to be installed in arenas and rinks throughout the state, to helping out his fellow ex-players. He was the epitome of the above and beyond, give you the shirt off his back kind of guy.

Earlier this year it was revealed that Maxy was courageously fighting aggressive lung cancer.  We began plans for a benefit signing with Maxy's longtime teammate Neal Broten. Unfortunately Maxy passed before an event could be announced, but we remain excited to move forward with this signing.  100% of the proceeds from this event will go to help offset Maxy's medical care and expenses.

In-person autographs will be FREE, but we kindly suggest a minimum donation of $25 per signature (payable at the event). 

We suggest that you take advantage of our Gold Medal Package or MVP Package for the best value!  (These packaged are also the only way to snag a posed photo with Neal.)  In-person inscription tickets are also available for $20 each (100% of the proceeds from package and inscription tickets, as well as mail order items will also be donated to The Maxwell Family)
