So it was October 1, 2012 at Tropicana Field.. I am in Section 134 (which is right by the Ray's bullpen) and as everyone knows, the locals just don't support the team by going to the games. The entire section was empty which allowed me to get closer to the bullpen. It was getting closer to the end of the game and Fernando Rodney was called to warm up and get in there and get the save. Right before he got to the warm up mound, I called him over and asked him to sign my ticket. He smiled and said something (couldn't really understand with his heavy accent and broken english) and then proceeded to sign it and give me a "fist bump"...

I also took photos of some rays players, got them printed and sent them to the clubhouse to get signed, and sure enough, they did send them back to me! :) ... but here is the picture of the Fernando Rodney ticket :)
