While Bernard Lodge appreciates his fans, he has never really gotten used to the fame associated with being a franchise's cornerstone in the net. At least he is not a star forward, he could not even begin to imagine the fame that is associated with that. All this being said though, he does not avoid his fans. He always makes sure to give them the time of day if they are respectful, especially the youths. He loves talking to the kids that appreciate his talents between the posts. He doesn't love taking pictures, but will do so for the kiddos. If anyone wants to get a signature though, he'll make them work for it. They either must have brought something really cool to sign or be a pleasure to interact with. The one time the fans can really get Lodge riled up and enthused are when he is in the net for playoffs or representing the Great British national team.
