Today I received a couple tickets I had sent in to a couple private signings.
The first is one that I really wanted for a while. My friend Steve C gave me a ticket from Game 3 of the 2013 World Series. That was the game where third base umpire Jim Joyce called obstruction on the third basemen which allowed Allen Craig to score from third with the winning run. I saw where Craig was doing a signing with St Louis Sports Co (stlsportsco on SCN) so I immediately set it up to send it in. The ticket was signed exactly as I requested and turned out awesome! Craig signed it with “Obstruction Call Winning Run”. I could not be happier!
The other package I got in had a pair of tickets from Jose Abreu’s major league debut. I bought the tickets right after the game and when Paul B (pabs82 on SCN) announced he was having a private signing with him, I jumped at the chance to send them in. I also bought a Sports Illustrated he provided that I will get in the next couple days. The tickets I received today were signed with the marker I sent in and everything. They look perfect!
All in all a great day of autographed tickets!
