MOUNT PROSPECT, Illinois- He was the big man on the 1985 Bears, but William “Refrigerator” Perry was involved in a promotion Saturday that got a cool reception from some fans.

“The Fridge” was scheduled to sign autographs at the Costco in Mount Prospect.

Fans who showed up with personal memorabilia, were turned away. That’s because, anything autographed by Perry, had to be bought at Costco.

One fan said, “They wanted over $25 for the pictures, which is outrageous, and you know we drove a long distance here and we ended up getting nothing. I was outraged. Very disappointed in how Costco in how they handled everything.

There was no official comment from Costco, or the fridge.
