Cole Harbour’s Sidney Crosby Signs Fans School Excuse

Cole Harbour’s Sidney Crosby Signs Fans School Excuse

Last Updated on September 17, 2026 10:12 am

Sidney Crosby has returned to Pittsburgh after spending summer here at home at his place in Grand Lake.

So with Sid back in the steel city he was dropping off tickets to Pittsburgh Penguins season ticket holders and one family’s children had to skip school to be at home to meet Sid… so Sidney had to sign their school excuse on Tuesday.

It read: “Please excuse Josie, James and Lucy from Avonworth School on September 15th, 2026, thanks! With his classic signature and # 87.

Here’s how it happened with # 87 walking into the yard to meet the family:
