There are true autograph seekers, and then there are dudes who are just looking to flip an autograph for money.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers clearly thought he was dealing with the latter when a "fan" asked him for an autograph while Rodgers took part in the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament this week.

Thankfully, the whole exchange was caught on video.

Rodgers tested the guy's knowledge by asking the autograph seeker a question about the ticket the guy wanted the future Hall of Fame quarterback to sign.

The ticket was from a game Rodgers played earlier in his career, and the autograph seeker claimed he was at the game.

When the "fan" couldn't correctly recall the final score of the game, Rodgers, who labeled him an "autograph hound," denied the request.

The sports memorabilia industry has created professional autograph seekers, and that hasn't sat well with professional athletes over the years.

Some athletes have even turned to a kids-only policy, although some "autograph hounds" have been accused of using kids to get around that.

So, when you see a professional athlete turn down an autograph, don't immediately jump to the conclusion they're just a crabby and don't do those things for fans.
