Anyone going this year. This will be my 17th in a row this year. I have been every year since 98'. It would be cool to see some sox collectors from here.

I plan to be helping out at a booth and looking to buy 1 or 2 heaper GU Sox items. Just look for the tall, bearded guy with the anti-Obama T-shirt.

I'm sure like many. I would like to go just to attend Friday Nights garage sale. Looking to pick up a jersey or two depending on price. Any one who has an extra ticket and needs an extra set of hands to snag something up let me know. I'll glady pay for my ticket and help out with what ever your looking for. Good Luck and Hope you fans Have a blast!

Re: Chicago White Sox Soxfest

I will be there all weekend and plan on picking up a few pieces at the garage sale. I'm hoping they have the 83' jerseys since they weren't at the clubhouse sale. Also looking forward to getting my Thomas and Thome gamers signed.

I'll be there all weekend. I'm sure I'll pick up some items, but at this point I'm not sure how much new stuff I need after decades of Soxfests and Garage Sales. It'll be interesting to see how Thome signs your bat. He personalized mine when he signed it six or seven years ago.

Re: Chicago White Sox Soxfest

After dunn had that terrible first year his bats were $125. Last year they were $200 so I would look for the same or maybe $150-$175. Viciedo and Alexei were $50. Konerko will be $300 +. Beckham $50-$75. The steal will prob be thorton, peavy, and everyone else traded or not comming back. I'm sure an erik johnson jersey will run around $125-$175 which I'm hoping to get one. After sales first year his were $175 and I'm kicking myself for not getting one back then. Seems like the team has realized there bad and dropped some prices accordingly. At the clubhouse sale I got liriano for $25 and picked up a Freddy Garcia for $50. I'm hoping they still have a bunch for $25.

sounds like it just kind of varies..... but thanks for the estimate..... im just trying to figure out if its worth dropping the $$$ to get in, JUST to go to the garage sale portion
