    26-Jan-2014:Milwaukee Brewers On Deck

    Today, I attended the Milwaukee Brewers On Deck event at the Wisconsin Center in Milwaukee, WI. The event features a number of Brewers players, alumni, and coaches, and a large majority of the autographs were free, and entrance is free. The autos that were not free were $10, which was for Brewers Charities. There were multiple stages, and each of the 6 stages had a Premium signer. Attendees received a numbered ticket for one of the 6 Premium signers, and then 250 numbers for each were pulled. The 6 Premium signers were Jonathan Lucroy, Robin Yount, Bob Uecker, Rollie Finger, Yovani Gallardo, and Ryan Braun. I put my ticket in for Robin Yount, but it wasn't selected, so I didn't get that auto.
    From the Brewers alumni, I got 2 autos from Gorman Thomas, 2 from Geoff Jenkins, and 1 from Doug Melvin, all on cards.

    From the Brewers coaches, I got 2 autos from Garth Iorg, 2 from John Shelby, 2 from Lee Tunnell, 1 from Marcus Hanel, 2 from Ron Roenicke, 2 from Jerry Narron, 1 from Mike Guerrero, all on cards, and 1 5x7 signed by Rick Kranitz and 1 5x7 by Johnny Narron.

Interesting fact about Christian Hanson, his dad is Dave Hanson, of the legendary Hanson Brothers from the Slap Shot movie! I got two autos on cards, and one on a promo 8 1/2 x 11, for free.

    Any chance you'd sell/trade one of the Middletons? Went to school with him at A&M, so it'd be cool to have.

    I doubt I have anything you'd want to trade for, but LMK what you're looking for in a PM!
