Angels Fanfest Autographs

[rl75]

I went to the Angels Fanfest today. Not as great as the last one in 2007, but for the $5 admission fee, I was able to get 12 in-person autographs. I'm not a fan of signed balls, and I didn't really feel like searching out trading cards for all 50 or so people that might have been signing, so I just had them sign this year's pocket schedule.



Here's who I got:

Mike Trout
Mark Trumbo
Hank Conger
Brandon Wood
Matt Palmer
Andrew Romine
Rich Thompson
Michael Kohn
Alexi Amarista
Chris Pettit
Dino Ebel
Steve Soliz




I got some pretty nice young star and prospect autos. More established stars such as Erick Aybar, Bobby Abreu, Howie Kendrick and others signed later in the day, but they only signed for half of the time as the younger guys and the lines were twice as long.

Nice haul, but MAN!!!!.......what a waste! I'm sure some people (including myself) would have paid to have gotten some on baseballs and other items.

I'm a collector of 8 x 10 celebrity autograph photos, so it displays perfectly with what I'm already displaying. My problem with balls is that the ink always fades or smears too quickly. Paper or photo autographs seem to last.

Only if you don't use a BIC and don't get a ROMLB.

It sure is.... different...

Probably not what I would have done (A mini helmet for me, for multi-autos) but it does look kinda cool.
