FanFest Meet Ups:

by saint @ Athletics Nation on Jan 23, 2007 10:51 AM PST

Let's use this diary in order to coordinate our fanfest gatherings.

Last year, RF A-HOLE, Duke, Devo, 510 and I actually camped out before and then went all "covert opps" and snuck in before it opened.

I am not so sure that I will be doing the same this year, BUT, who knows?

Who all is going???

I need...

...some Early Bird to text me the autograph session pairings & times as soon as they are known, since I probably can't get to the park till almost 10:00 (will be traveling with casual fan... <sigh>). Anyone getting there early and willing to text me a schedule, please email me and I'll send you my cell #.

I'll be there ...

Keep me in the loop.

I'm bringing the lady this time, so I'm not sure how covert we'll want to be.

Can she hop a fence?

Narrowly averting barbed wire?

Can She...make herself invisible to all guards?

I will be there as soon as I can get the 4 year

old, up and out. We are coming from Sac, so we might not be there until close to 10, especially since he wants to take bart, not drive.

Saint, I will be there on Sat.

This is BB99 from the ESPN board. Where will you guys be?

I'm not sure yet:

I may get there as early as 7AM and hop the fence, or I may get there at 10PM.

I think that the West Side Club is a good idea about 12PM. In the RH corner if you are staring at the field.

Noon at the West Side Club sounds good

I have a Red Sox fan visiting me this week but I promise he'll behave.

See you all there!!!!

fan fest newby

I'm most interested in the lockerroom, batting cage, etc., tours. Could someone let me know how that works? Are there several tours scheduled throughout the Fan Fest time? Do you need to sign up early? I'd appreciate any information from other years.

thanks!

You need to sign up early and inside:

It is usually behind the 123 section.

Free Tickets

Anybody need tickets? I've got a parking pass and 4 tickets that I can't use because I'm going to the Team in Training kickoff (which I'm pretty stoked about).

If you'd like 'em, just shoot me an e-mail: dcgrey[@]gmail.com

All I'd like in return is a Lastings Milledge autograph.
