    I think it'd be cool, and I'd probably go to a couple of games a year (in Madison). That being said, I follow soccer/football a decent amount and I enjoy the game, which I'd say isn't true for the majority of Wisconsinites. If MLS ever went ahead with changing their schedule to match most of the other leagues Fall-Spring instead of Spring-Fall, it'd be nearly impossible to draw a crowd.

    There is also another Stitch n' Pitch bobble on June 21. "The first 1,000 needle artists to buy tickets and attend Stitch N’ Pitch Night at Miller Park will receive a free special edition Brewers Stitch N’ Pitch Bobble Head. Tickets must be purchased in advance."

    According to wikipedia, yes. Future MLB Stadiums

    Oh no... I said that whole intern needing to be fired thing as a joke... now I feel insulted and part of me wants someone fired... it's the Minnesota state capitol... http://static.panoramio.com/photos/original/17164340.jpg

    I didn't think of it until today at work... and ESPN there is disabled... so I checked ESPN3 tonight and they still had the replay up... Here's the building! http://images.yuku.com/image/png/3d92567f977763367e893aa80683bb957681d0a.png Obviously not the Wisconsin State Capitol, and also obviously not in Madison. Some ESPN intern needs to be fired! Still trying to figure out where it is though...
  6. chrisisoutrunning
    Was it a dome similar to the capitol? Any chance it was the Overture Center? http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2154/2108644575_252e8d79dc.jpg?v=0

    Personally I haven't, but my mom has won two trips to Orlando, one in 2008 and one in 2009. The first was a Dick's Sporting Goods sweepstakes for ESPN the weekend, which was pretty cool, but we found out on such short notice that we couldn't go for the entire length of the trip. It included the flights, two $500 gift cards to Dick's, a room at the Beach Club (really nice hotel on Disney property), and park passes. I proposed to my now wife on that trip, so the best part had nothing to do with my love of sports. The second trip basically only got us the flights and a few nights at the Gaylord Palms. That trip was hard on me mentally, I had been laid off 3 weeks prior to that and couldn't enjoy myself at all...

    As seems to be the consensus, Hoffman will have a 600 saves commemorative one, I'd guess it'll be him with his arms raised straight up, as seen in this picture. I almost doubt that Mark A. will have one, he doesn't seem like the type of owner who would want one of him mass produced. I can see Selig though. Just as long as it's not Ned Yost or Ken Macha...

    Gallardo (I will be very upset if he isn't one) Wolf Hoffman 600 (This has to be a lock) Racing Sausage (It'd be Hot Dog's turn in the rotation if they want to start over, and they're popular enough that I'm guessing they will) Weeks/Hart (One of the two, it's a toss up in my book, Weeks if he signs some form of extension, otherwise Hart) Axford I think it's too soon for guys like Cain/Lucroy/Escobar, but because of how well he pitched Axford will be one.

    I would say by 6:30 or so to be safe. I dug up the gamesheet from the Lincoln bobblehead last year and the stated attendance was ~5700. I'm taking the afternoon off from work so I can make it over to Milwaukee without worrying about getting there on time. As far as seats, section 200 will be right behind the benches, so you'd have some obstructed views being so low. I'm probably going to wait until a week or so before the games to buy tickets. I prefer sitting a little higher and being able to see the flow of the game. If I had my way I'd sit in the front row of the upper level, but that's just me.
  11. chrisisoutrunning
    First 5,000. I didn't get the Lincoln bobblehead last year because I was stuck on the interstate coming from Madison... Flight for life shut the interstate down in both directions.
  12. chrisisoutrunning
    According to my fiancee it finally arrived today, since I doubt this is the one I won yesterday... I will have one to trade.
  13. chrisisoutrunning
    Yeah, that's the weird part... I'm gonna give it until Saturday, and then give up. I managed to win the same bobble in another auction today. So if they both come, I'll be looking to trade one. Anybody need a Prince Fielder Nashville Sounds bobblehead?

    I doubt they move solely because they don't really have anywhere to go. From what I can find, the only metropolitan area in North America with more people that doesn't already have a team (or two) is Montreal. I think it's safe to assume no one is going back there. Portland is close behind Tampa/St. Pete in size, so I guess that's an option, but they already have the Portland Beavers AAA club. Below is a list of markets that already have a professional sports team other than one from MLB. (I've left the Brewers in just for comparison. I realize the numbers are arbitrary because someone is deciding on the boundary, but they are relavent to the discussion I feel.) 3,426,350 Montreal, QC 2,968,806 Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN 2,395,997 Tampa, FL 2,265,223 Portland, OR 1,986,965 Vancouver, BC 1,796,857 Sacramento, CA 1,689,572 Milwaukee Brewers 1,644,561 Orlando, FL 1,607,486 Indianapolis, IN 1,592,383 San Antonio, TX 1,540,157 Columbus, OH 1,499,293 Charlotte, NC 1,337,726 New Orleans, LA 1,333,914 Salt Lake City, UT 1,231,311 Nashville, TN 1,187,941 Raleigh, NC 1,170,111 Buffalo, NY 1,135.614 Memphis, TN 1,100,491 Jacksonville, FL 1,063,664 Ottawa, ON

    I'm succumb to the likelihood that I'm going to have to file a claim. I got a message a couple of days ago asking if I had received the bobble yet, I replied within five minutes saying I had not, and haven't heard back since. So I won the bobble the 5th, emailed the seller the 15th and the 18th, heard back and replied on the 20th. I'm giving it until Saturday before I file a claim. Is there any penalty to the seller if this happens? I almost feel like the seller didn't like how much the auction ended at and just didn't send it. Either hoping I wouldn't file the claim or just relisting it hoping it went for more...

    The part that bothers me is that I was notified that it was shipped the 8th via priority mail, the 8th was a Wednesday, so I'd expect that it should have been here either this past Monday or Tuesday at the worst. I've tried contacting them twice (to no avail) and now I see the exact same item posted again. The seller has a great rating, so I'm really confused... I figure I'll give it until Wednesday before I start trying to get my money back...
  18. chrisisoutrunning
    How long have you had to wait for a bobblehead to be shipped over eBay? I won a Prince Nashville bobble on the 5th, paid immediately, got an email saying it was shipped on the 8th and it still hasn't arrived. I tried contacting the seller Wednesday to make sure they had the address right, but never heard back, so I sent another message today. I have a feeling if this actually is coming, it's not coming priority mail like the seller said...

    1/21 - Darren Pang 2/4 - Blake Geoffrion 2/18 - Bob Uecker 3/11 - Scott Upshall I'll make it over from Madison for the Geoffrion and Uecker ones, the other two don't interest me that much.

    It's a Squire Strat. I know very little about Guitars, but about 10 years ago my dad went on a guitar kick and now has a couple of Fender Strats sitting around. If you look at the image you posted full size, you can kind of make out the Squire on the head. It looks like this picture... http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Stratocaster_machine_head_DSC06936.jpg

    I had a friend who's grill was taken during a game at the beginning of the '08 season. We were in the preferred lot near the sausage house. There were about 20 other small grills sitting out in our row, but for some reason somebody wanted his $25 Target grill.

    I was thinking the same thing only with Real Madrid. I'd vote them as the Yankees if we're looking at $$ spent.
  23. chrisisoutrunning
    Fair enough, looks like I'll have to hope to find one cheap by miracle, I think my fiancee will kill me if I buy another $30+ bobblehead off of ebay (just got a Sounds Fielder).
  24. chrisisoutrunning
    I know this might be kind of a long shot since these are going back a few years, but does anyone happen to have an extra of one or both of these? I'm relatively new to collecting bobbleheads and would like to finish off the racing sausages. I don't have much to go with as far as trading. CC, Yount, and Italian as far as Brewers bobbles, and the Steve Schmidt Mallards bobble. Since it's unlikely I'll be able to set up a trade for these, do many of these go up on Ebay? I see a few Chorizo's right now, but no Hot Dog's. (And if no one has a Hot Dog or Chorizo, I like most people, would like an Odorizzi, Stitch n' Pitch, or Beer Vendor...)

    I don't know when this happened, or when this decision was printed in the rules of golf, but your brother was incorrectly penalized (which was my first impression, so I went digging into the rules). As long as your brother didn't actually rake the bunker, he shouldn't have been penalized. 13-4/21 Rake Thrown into Bunker Before Strokehttp://www.usga.org/assets/0/1181/1514/5e6357ca-4421-4dab-a626-4a0fc8b9062c.gif Q. A player's ball lies in a bunker. He casually throws a rake into the bunker for use after his stroke. The rake does not move his ball or improve the lie of the ball. Does the player incur a penalty? A. No. Placing a rake in a bunker is permissible. In this case, throwing the rake into the bunker was the equivalent of placing it. If the rake had moved the ball, the player would incur a penalty of one stroke for causing his ball to move; and the ball would have to be replaced — Rule 18-2a.
