Philly INK

[druce26]

I've been meaning to get out to one of them. Maybe the next one when the kids are out of school.

CHARLIE MANUEL @ Ponzios Diner in Cherry Hill today
I got a few things signed by the Skipper, outside before the show started I got........
Mini NLCS WS 08 bat
"Final Innings" ticket stub from the last game at Veterans Stadium
At a commercial break I was able to get.........
ROMLB
3 8.5x11s
It was pretty cool Charlie and his wife liked one of the pictures so much they asked me if I would send one to the diner for them to keep.

If anyone is doing Freddy Adu I would love an 8x10. I can get you high res images!

Ryan Howard has the nerve to tweet about his "celebrity server" event at mortons in philly on july 19th. I think it's in poor taste for him to be talking about this when we aren't even sure he will be playing IN GAMES by july 19th...

pretty sure howard's had nice turnout with decent eagles and phillies players in years past, might be good to graph outside...

My brother and I went to the game where they honor the past players- none of them signed on the field- they just scurried back into the dugout afterwards.

hunter pence did sign that day though haha, it was his 2nd home game as a philly.

I would be curious to see if anyone else knew more though, there are obviously some alumni I'd love to get!

Does anyone know if they enter through the executive suites? That could be an option as well. I got charlie manuel that way once...

this from phillies.com, not that it really helps with graphing specifically.

EDIT: looks like this is from last year.
