Went to the last exhibition game of spring training of the Giants vs. A's.
Just so happened to be A's Fan Appreciation Tailgate pre-game event. So got to the ballpark about 9:30 and waited in line to get in (event opened at 10) and immediately went straight to 1 of 2 booths.
Was about 6th in line.. got one of my bobbleheads signed and got my new mini bat signed as well.
Unfortunately, when i took my bobblehead out... Brett Anderson's head fell off HAHA, i couldnt believe it. That was the first bobblehead i got that was "broken." I was so embarrassed to hand him only a head to get signed, but he laughed about it and thought it was actually pretty awesome.
Me: um.. sorry, but I broke it!
Brett: *chuckles* It's alright.... dude, that's awesome!
I'll fix it later haha, but for now i stuck it back in its box.
After the first round, went back in line to see if we can get the next session. Justin Duscherer was in that rotation, but since we forgot to bring his bobblehead and we already got his autograph from before, we let everyone go ahead of us while we waited for the last session.
Got my bat signed by 2 more players and had Andrew Bailey sign my wooden baseball.
Once out of this line, walked around a bit and headed to the other booth to see if we can get Ben Sheets autograph.. us and about 15 people got cut-off unfortunately.. the players had to leave for pre-grame stuff.
Got our tickets and headed into the ballpark. It's been such a long time since going in
The game was going by pretty quick surprisingly, but left about 6th inning to do some Easter shopping..
Now i'm at home... wrapped everything up, but them back in their boxes, but them in its cases and now its time to wait for the real season to start.
MONDAY... OPENING GAME... MARINERS vs A's!! can't wait!
