Today I started out my 2016 autograph season by attending the Dodgers fan fest @ dodger stadium today , I had previously bought 2 autograph vouchers that cost a donation of $25 each here is what I got

in the first group I got Bill Russell who signed a 1974 dodgers scorecard magazine
and I got chase utley to sign my dodger poster, also took a picture with him as well

the second group I bought for had recently acquired rookie from the white sox and brother of golden state warrior star Klay Thompson , trayce Thompson , he signed my dodger poster which now has an amazing 120 autographs on it, and I got joc pederson to sign an authentic 2015 home run derby jersey, and also got a picture with him.

an awesome day!!!!

next autograph outing will be heading to Dodgers spring training for 3 days starting 2/28, I hope to return with many new Dodgers autographs and if a miracle happens maybe sandy Koufax will be down there at that time and I can get him!!!!!!

Today was my first of 2 days of autographing Dodgers spring training in Glendale az and here is what I ended up getting

Got Justin turner josh Ravin Alex Guerrero and former dodger cy young winner Eric gagne to sign my Dodgers poster

Got new Cuban signee yaisel Sierra to sign a baseball ( this was apparently his first day in camp he signed for 30-40 people)

Got tommy lasorda to sign a 2001 sga bobblehead( probably missed out on other good autos waiting in a line to get him but to me it was worth it)

And got the following Dodgers and non roster invitees to sign ball cards
Justin turner signed a 2016 topps
Aj Ellis signed a 2015 topps mini and 2015 topps heritage( those two were by far the best signers I saw today)
Charlie Culberson signed a bowman rookie card

A great day for me, hopefully tomorrow will be even better

Good luck at the game. Hopefully you can snag Joc Pederson, Justin Turner or Kershaw - or Vince Scully!

Hey Chris. Glad to see you're still on SCF & you're still rackin' the Dodgers. Nice work!

Thanks , scf has always been the only place I post besides dodger Facebook pages, and Dodgers and Rancho Cucamonga quakes are my two main autographing interests!!! Would like to get back in to getting lakers sometime soon

[chrisborene]

Oh if I could be so lucky to get vin scully, I've got about 15 feet from him , but with no luck. And I would always love to get an extra kershaw joc and turner, kershaws rather tough to get in or at San Diego if you don't have a baseball or if you are not over the Dodgers dugout, he has passed literally in front of me over 10 times in San Diego, tried the can I get a pic route last time and was still denied, but it's all part of the chase I've had great luck with joc and turner out there in sd so I'll always have something extra for them, usually will post results here within a day, and thanks for reading, I sometimes wonder if anybody ever reads what I write :)

Good luck at the game. Hopefully you can snag Joc Pederson, Justin Turner or Kershaw - or Vince Scully!

Last night I attended the Dodgers game in San Diego, and saw a great game in which the Dodgers won 3-0, but here is my autograph haul for the day:

Before game autographing near their hotel
Bench coach bob geren signed 2 cards


Jaime jarrin signed a sga bobblehead

Joc pederson signed. 2015 a&g rookie card , and might I add gave one of the best sigs of his I've ever seen

Then a project I've had on the back burner I've got going again is this big 3'x3' canvas I have of dodger stadium which I got Austin Barnes and Justin turner both to sign

Next I added only 1 autograph to my famous dodger poster( currently only needed 5 players off the 25 man roster that I could get on there) well I didn't get any of them but I did get president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman on it , which now has 131 autographs on it and he was very impressed with the collection of autos on it

Got hitting coach turner wars to sign one card

And got yimi garcia to sign a topps finest and a&g rookie cards
And that's all before entering stadium

In the stadium before the game I got Charlie Culberson to sign my canvas of dodger stadium, has 13 autographs on it so far

And the last autograph of the day came from aj Ellis on a 15 topps card

Next foray into autographing probably will be on 4/12 going to the Rancho Cucamonga quakes game, they got grant Holmes on the team this year and I want to rack on him and two former MLB players in jay gibbons and kip wells and I got about 12 cards for each of them as well so we will see how I'll do!!!
