I got a party like it is '82 shirt and a What can Braun do for you shirt along with two rally rags on opening day for $20 from your two person street team walking through Dodgers 5. What a great price for two quality shirts. Also bumped into someone Sunday selling the Hall shirts. He noticed me by my car with the '82 rally rags. I know I will be buying more shirts sometime in the future. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
I remember hearing you guys talk about that person Wish I would have gotten there sooner to see that. Didn't someone in the front of the line and maybe it was you bhf I forget tear down those signs and throw them away? lol.
I gave my 5 tickets for Braun to a friend that lives in Milwaukee who will go get them for me. The bad thing is If he gets a retro he will keep it and claim it was on his ticket that he got it with lolz.
I plan to still get there early 6-7 AM. I was there at 7am for fielder last year. I would have been there sooner but I got lost with the road construction and over slept a few minutes. Usually I bring my laptop so I have something to do. And I like to get in line early anyways for stuff like this. Don't know if they have outlets though outside Pohlman Field? You probably could sleep in some and still be in under the 500 mark without any problems since they game is a few hours later. Maybe sleep in till 7 or 8 and then hit the road depending on were you live.
Wow I saw nothing that bad the only problems I had were not getting any retros out of 6 bobbles going through the home plate entrance closer to first base. The quality of the bobble has also gotten worse IMO. From a horrible paint job to glue drippings to unpainted letters on the plaque and jersey. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif
I have the Hall Track bobble it cost me $41 + shipping off ebay back in October . While in line for Sheets/Gagne on Saturday I saw a lady with the same box as my Hall came in (plain white with black warning sticker) I overheard her saying she use to work at MP. The only Mark Attanasio bobble I have seen on ebay went for $202. The Mark Attanasio bobble looks really cool with the jacket and khaki pants. http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n176/Zachlaka/bobbleheads/BillHallSide.jpg http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n176/Zachlaka/bobbleheads/BillHallFront.jpg
That works for me. I will be in the Uecker line before the game and my seat is in terrace reserve. We can meet you anywhere you want just let me know what you think is best. ~ Zach
Ok I have a High Desert Mavericks Brad Nelson bobblehead no box and a Indianapolis Indians Cecil Cooper with box for sale or trade. I took pictures to best describe both bobbles. Images are thumb nailed click for larger resolution. http://img163.imagevenue.com/loc1006/th_20599_Both_Nelson__122_1006lo.jpg http://img102.imagevenue.com/loc707/th_20605_Nelson_Base_122_707lo.jpg http://img192.imagevenue.com/loc210/th_20606_Nelson_Face_Close_Up_122_210lo.jpg http://img163.imagevenue.com/loc652/th_20612_Nelson_missing_paint_on_back_of_pants_122_652lo.jpg http://img141.imagevenue.com/loc357/th_20617_Nelson_Side_Close_Up_122_357lo.jpg http://img204.imagevenue.com/loc388/th_20619_Nelson_Side_122_388lo.jpg http://img208.imagevenue.com/loc199/th_20620_Cooper_Front_122_199lo.jpg http://img216.imagevenue.com/loc435/th_20621_Coopoer_Back_122_435lo.jpg http://img181.imagevenue.com/loc235/th_20622_Cooper_Base_122_235lo.jpg The Brad Nelson has been heavily bobbbled and has marks over his face. His head leans all the way forward onto his chest. He is also missing paint on his butt and on his front jersey. There is no plaque either and that has glue residue around were it should be. When I got this last year off ebay for $30 I was only told the plaque was missing. The Cecil Cooper is in much better condition with only a small chip under the oo in Cooper. I paid $50 for him off ebay last year. For Brad Nelson I am looking at either a trade or $10 For Cecil Copper I am looking at either a trade or $25 I will be at Opening day and the Sunday Prince bobblehead games if you want to meet up in person. Otherwise I can meet anyone in Madison. ~ Zach
The only two I know of so far are Savannah Sand Gnats & Las Vegas 51's I have pictures of the 51's bobble I can post when I get home. I had forgot to place a bid for it when it was on ebay and it went for $3 http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/embarassed.gif http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif
I wi9ll be at school but I have my DVR recording both FSN and ESPN2 just incase ESPN2 does a blackout for Madison. I will proabably get to watch the game around 8Pm tonight.
Not a problem I really had nothing for Gagne still trying to find one of his minor league bobbles. So it worked out great. Yep I fgured I would ask him politely to sweet spot + Cy Young inscription and see what he would do.If not I would have thanked him anyways and told him that's fine. It doesn't hurt to ask I asked Russell Branyan once to sign a home run hankie with "Russell The Muscle" under his name and he did. lol
I got to the park around 6:00AM waited outside with BHF. When it came time I sprinted up to the Braun/Yost Sheets/Gagne line. I made it in no problem for Braun/Yost but I wanted Sheets. I was talking with another guy in line who was way back through the maze of barricade and we set up a ticket trade. Alot of people by this guy also said they wanted Sheets and Gagne. Well I got passed up by the guy handing out tickets for Braun/Yost and he didn't believe me I was in line when I asked for one so I cut to the back of the line were the one guy was I was talking to earlier lol (never thought I would cut farther back in a Braun line). A large group of us 15 or so people had to keep moving back pretty far and let others go infront to get to the Braun/Yost cut off so we could get are Sheets/Gagne tickets. I saw Bikeage77 (Corey) and we talked I had nothing for Gagne except to give him a warm welcome to Milwaukee so I got a ball sweet spoted and a cy young '02 inscrption for bikeage77 it looks awesome IMO. For Sheets I got his Indianapolis Indians bobblehead autographed on the brim of his hat He did it in silver sharpie without me asking and Gagne asked if I wanted the autograoph on the sweetspot they are so nice. Afterwords I looked at both vendors and the Brewers rumage sale. I picked up a Nolan Ryan 300th win Certifiacte for $1. From the Brewers I got a shirt and 5 Darron & Bill bobbleheads for $6 lots of the shirts and the bobbles were only a $1
I noticed those two theyare on my watch list I already got a Beloit Brad Nelson from '03 from him last week. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
I was thinking about getting there at 9AM. I like the atmosphere around the park waiting in lines. I will be brining three bobbles and a jersey. Going to try for two autos the jersey being first on my list. Never been to this so I was just going to wait either at Fridays entrance or home plate? I take it they haven't said were each players specific signing spot will be?
Yeah that is an option, I have a feeling they will go for quite a bit of $$ though. They probably will. I will wait for the price to go down though. I waited till november to get the Fielder from last year for $13
I get it. A first I thought you were confusing Ross for someone who lived in Oklahoma.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif If anyone should happen to get a surpluss of capuano or Yost mini bobbles and they want to give them away for free let me know Those are the only two minis I need and having just got a Cecil Cooper & Rowdy Indianapolis Indians bobble off ebay puts me in the poor house with a empty wallet.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gifhttp://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif
