There's a lot of people who collect memorabilia and don't have time to go to games, try to get seats close enough to the dugout, and hope that they'll have a chance for an autograph. Easier to just do it through one of these signings if you're a collector. Plus a lot of players aren't as likely to stop to sign for adults as they would be to sign for younger fans.

Also, theres a 99% chance you will get a much better looking signature, with a much better pen, at a signing.
