I finally got around to getting my line up cards framed.

I finally got my Line up cards framed. Sorry for the bad cell phone pics, I was trying to be quick . I'll take a better pic with the camera later. The first one is from the Final week of the 2011 season with the redsox collapse. September 25th 2011 to be exact. There were 3 games left in the season after this game and the Rays were only 1 game back after this game. Also Zobrist happened to get an inside the park homer in this game.






This one is from 2012. Nothing too special about this one other than the big Yankee names on it and it was a classic Shields/Sabathia battle. This game was on Labor day September 3rd, 2012

That is some serious dedication there.

It is priceless and it should be passing down from generation to generation.


(I will never ever have enough room to display something like this -- even though I have over 100 of lineup cards from the Yankees and even more than that when it comes to tickets)

It has been a couple years in the making. We live about 200 miles away from Tampa and we try to make about a dozen games a year. We made sure to keep the tickets and get the picture taken at the stadium. We also had to hope that no one in the club house wanted the lineup card that we had purchased which happened to us on the September 11 2011 game against the redsox. The Rays were really stand up organization and gave us 4 tickets about 9 rows behind home plate.

It took 3 tries to obtain everything needed. I let it sit for about a year because I too do not really have the space to hang something this big in our home. But one day I said Screw it, I'm going to get them done and put them up in the hallway for now until we get a bigger place someday. At least my kids that are 8 and 5 can have the visual of seeing these as kids at the house when they get married and move on. They have already picked which one they want. My oldest wants the 2011 setup and my youngest wants the 2012 set up.

It really is a cool snap shot of our lives and a snap shot of the kids. They are only little once. I'm glad I did it and spent the money on everything to make it happen.

that looks awesome. I may do something similar to the line up cards I have from both the A's and the Dbacks from the same game in 2012 (a Dbacks walk off win)

Very nice job. They look great. What size are the frames and did you do them yourself or have them professionally done?

[Wrigley2010]

Beautiful display. Definitely something that can be passed down and cherished for years to come!

[SSB15]

Great idea. I really like how you incorporated the tickets.

A few better pics as promised. The hall way is small so some are in weird angles.

Thanks for the comments guys! They are 36 inches wide by 26.5 inches tall.

I had them done at a frame shop in town. I think I paid $185 for each setup all on acid free products. I also used that Clearvue glass that has 99% uv protection. I was nervous about the highlighting fading over time.
