Well, we had planned on surprising Brad Stone on Saturday when the Jacksonville Suns were playing in Knoxville, TN. Well, he texted me Thursday night around 10:30 p.m. and said they'd switched his pitching day to Friday, so he was going to start. Well, we talked to him and he left four tickets for us at the door.
We made it just before the game. We got to spend some time with him Friday evening. We spent some time with him Saturday; before, during, and after the game. It was great seeing him and all of us getting a chance to really catch up.
Saturday was also Ryne Sandberg bobblehead night, so we were able to score four of them. Aside from the bobbleheads, this is what we brought back (we will be receiving 2 team autographed baseballs of the Jacksonville Suns team, but Brad is going to send that later this coming week):
Autographs for the boys' teachers and a friend
Autographs for the boys
AND the best for last......
Brad had this happen a week or so ago and was going to mail it until he found out we were coming:
His very first cracked bat
We cannot wait until the chance arises to go see Brad and the Suns again! I did meet another FCB member face-to-face, but I've already forgotten his userid. So, if you read this, I'm very sorry!
