Re: STL Cardinals Winter Warm Up

I saw you - I think. I had that Wilson jersey in my hand for a second, actually. Are you a bearded person?

It was not NEARLY as bad as I thought. Though, I did not get in line for the autographs - but I saw Jeff running around like a madman in there. He is a hard worker!

I got there about 10:30 and stayed until 2:30. Most of the big names were gone from the store, but I got a few things:

Juan Encarnacion - Home FLAG hat
Anthony Reyes - Alternate hat
Josh Hancock - Alternate hat

HOME left handed helmet
AWAY right handed helmet

Chris Duncan Issued/signed bat.

All told, I spent $250

And I met a few of you guys. A pretty fun day, and GREAT to see the response STL gave to our newest Bird - Troy Glaus. Seems like a real nice kid.

How much were the hats they had?

Re: STL Cardinals Winter Warm Up

I think I saw the same guy with the Wilson jersey. I saw him with it when I was in line outside, and I thought he was going to buy it, but he put it back. There were quite a few Gary Bennett, Dave Duncan, and bullpen catcher Jeff Murphy hats, and maybe 4 Mark DeJohn jerseys which was interesting to see. It seemed like all of the better jerseys were being sold at a Cardinals booth for somewhere in between 200-500 dollars.

Do you think they are going to restock the store, or at least the jerseys for Sunday and Monday?

Re: STL Cardinals Winter Warm Up

I was there from 1 to 3 and it was a pretty normal warm up I thought.

I picked up a Preston Wilson Game Used BP Jersey, Jose Oquendo Game Used Sunday Hat, and Juan Encarnacion Game Used Home Hat

Re: STL Cardinals Winter Warm Up

By the way, I was looking for a Juan bat, but you never sent me the photos...a Blonde SAM?

Re: STL Cardinals Winter Warm Up

I think Yadi will be the Cards catcher for a while...

He will proably never be a big hitter, and that will keep his price range affordable. He is too young, a fan favorite and a stud behind the plate.

Re: STL Cardinals Winter Warm Up

As a die hard CUBS fan living in STL, I was considering going this weekend to check out was kind of GU items would be on hand. I have gained a lot of respect for many of the CARDS players over the years, but I don't think it's going to be worth it form me.

Re: STL Cardinals Winter Warm Up

I am getting there after a good breakfast and then to the leftovers. I am really interested in snagging something from Juan Encarnacion. The most underrated player in Cards recent history.

Donnie - there is going to be snow on the ground man. Bring a habachi.

Dave

funny that you say that.

the friday night/ saturday morning of the WWU last year we had that huge ice storm. i was without electric for the whole weekend and felt bad about leaving the wife and kids at home. hope we have better luck this year.

if i see something, i'll call to see if youre interested in it. that way i can scoop it up if you'd like.

im certain that i'll be disappointed with what the store has and i'll be getting down there, sitting on my dead ass for nothing. thats just my luck.

i am looking forward to meeting you and Jeff, so all will not be lost.
