Then on my 8x10's

I finished the night off with 35 autographs and my season total is now 488 autographs. At this time last season my total was about 407 autographs.

Typically when the Cyclones/Franks have Theme Jersey's, they hold a raffle and give away jersey's off the backs of the players who played in the game. On this night 15 GU jerseys were raffled off.,
I got lucky and won one of the jerseys. I ended up with pitcher Dillon Becker. I had Dillon sign the jersey after the game. But, the black did not come out great on the dark blue numbers




Not sure when my next game will be with the Ducks away and the ATL All-Star Break approaching. Th Ducks do not have a home game till July 15th.

Thanks for Reading and Check Back Soon!!!
