O's Fan Fest

Re: O's Fan Fest

To add to what Jamie said, from what I understand, there was a dead sprint for the game used room as soon as you got in the door. Anybody in there grabbed anything good in sight within five minutes and that was all she wrote. On another front however they had a Nick Markakis game used road jersey signed by Markakis with a team letter in the silent auction and it sold for $600.00 I left before the auction ended or I would have grabbed that in a second. Cannot believe that the jersey sold for that as we had it pegged at over $2k easy.

Auto lines were off the chart, but great turnout as would be expected.

It is unbelievable!!!, I left like 45 minutes before the silent auction ended and it was at $600 then. We were sure people would line up out the door like 20 minutes or so before the end and bid it up. Serves me right to think that way. Watch, next year I try to do the same thing and the same scenario I wait it out and the jersey would go for $2k

Did Wieters sign autographs? Was anyone charging for sigs?

Nobody was charging, Wieters signed, Markakis, Roberts, not sure I think Jones might have. Lines were limited to 250 people and then cut off. I heard people complaining that no matter which line they tried to get in they were all cut off. I did not wait for any auto's. A couple of guys in the door first got a Wieters game worn jersey, a Matusz, Tillman, I did not see any Jones although I saw that Wasserman said there were some. Everything was picked through by the time I got up to that area some 30 minutes into the event.

I'm im the building since 8:15 getting set up with Pro-Am RIGHT NEXT TO THE GAME USED SALE ROOM getting ready to get in line at 10:00 when at 9:40 half a dozen guys go sprinting into the room because they opened the f---ing doors early! Bye bye Wieters, Matusz, Reimold, Bergesen...

There were 2 other Wieters jerseys. I think the same got who got the Ripken helmet also got those. He was also the one who picked up the Matusz jersey.

Geoff,
Fred got the Jones Road jersey and a pair of Neimold pants. I didn't see the Neimold jersey.

More like he's the guy who pulled the Matusz out of my hands...not a pleasant morning for me.

Re: O's Fan Fest

Those batting helmets were from 1995. I saw something hanging that mentioned it.

I got there late this year. By the time I found a parking spot (on the other side of the Ravens stadium), I probably did not get up there until close to noon. I did pick up some of the batting practice jerseys such as Eaton, Zaun, Ray, at $50 and then picked up some more when they dropped down to $30, but no big names for me. It seemed like this must have been better this year with bigger names, but they did not have as many jerseys in general this year and I bought no home or road jerseys at the $100 price.

I did get Markakis on a OML ball. Also, I did get Ron Hansen to inscribe 1960 AL ROY on a ball, but for me the autograph situation was a disappointment as you did not know where to stand and the lines were too long and took forever.

Re: O's Fan Fest

Were there any Jason Berken items for sale? If anyone picked up a jersey I would be interested in purchasing it.
