    Well, This Stinks....

    I am going to the Triple A All-Star Game...

    I was excited to see and possibly get graphs from the likes of Posey, Baumgarter, Santana, Alvarez...

    Except...

    THEY ALL GOT CALLED UP! Ugh! Oh well, I'm just excited to see the game. Graphing wise? Who knows? Maybe it will actually be a bit easier, especially since I was going to try to get some of these guys TTM on my commemorative ticket.

    See jyosi3's Items on eBay

    At least you didn't already buy 25 photos of the guys who got called up. I'll never order 2 weeks early to save on shipping ever again. On a side note, if anyone is going to see Josh Vitters or Domonic Brown let me know. I have some nice photos.

    Are you going to the fanfest, too? They pulled some good names for signing there : Ricky Bottalico, Darren Daulton, Marty Bystrom, Greg Luzinski, Larry Andersen, and Gary "Sarge" Matthews. Oh, and since you're probably from around the valley, Ollies Bargain Outlet has those Trump Signature Series balls for $2.99 a piece. If you get there before the 5th of July, you'll get an extra 15% off.

    There is an Ollie's about 1 mile from the ballpark. Thanks for the tip. I am taking my nephew to the fanfest. I have to work that day, but I'm hoping we get over there in time to meet Darren Daulton. I'm not a big Phil's fan, but Daulton rocked when I was a kid.

    I'd like to get Brown, but I haven't really tried getting auto's at their ballpark before. I just had a kid too, so my "free" time is short. My father's day present was a personalized Ironpigs jersey...it was a hassle just to get to the ballpark for five minutes to pick it up. Then even more of a hassle to get back to the park because they spelled my name wrong. Ha.

    Yep, that's the Ollies I saw the balls at. If you go down along the third base line, there are always guys and kids graphing. Andy Tracy is a regular over there. I see him over there before the games for a bit almost each game.
    If the ushers ask for you ticket, just let them know you're going down for autographs. They're usually pretty cool.

    Should you get those Trump baseballs and want trade some let me know! I just had 20 of those autographed at the single A all star game! Wish I had one of those Ollie things around here! I had to order them a dozen at a time and with shipping they were like $45 a dozen. Just LMK!
