Today was going to be just Cami and I. I had two tickets for today and Cami went nuts when she found out and wanted to make sure it was her who came with me so we got up and headed down to the Convention Center. We got there a little later than we did yesterday but it was still before the doors opened.
Today we were also going to meet up with my friend Joel and his son Elliott. It was a ton of fun to hang out with Joel while the kids ran around doing all the things there were to do there. Cami and I started off right away in Rollie Fingers’ line and we each got him on a baseball. I am giving my baseball to Caden as I already have him on a ball. Once we were done there, Cami really wanted Tony Oliva‘s autograph so I left her in his line and walked around. While walking around, I got in line for Vera Clemente’s autograph. Vera is Roberto’s widow. I got her to sign a Roberto Clemente HOF postcard and got back in line for her to sign a baseball for Cami. While signing the baseball, she was talking to me and mixed up writing her last name. She called her son up and he told her to write the two letters she was missing and it would be find which it is. Cami was sooo excited to get Tony Oliva’s autograph. I ended up posting a picture of her holding the Oliva ball and put it on my Twitter account. Turns out it got picked up by BringMeTheNews.com. She thought that was pretty cool.
Joel and Elliott showed up and the kids went running around while Joel and I stood in line for Fred Lynn. It was cool to catch up with Joel and I got his Sports Illustrated he had of him signed since I had him on everything else already. After that, I went to get my Futures Game program signed by Kris Bryant. I had gotten Jose Berrios to sign it earlier in the day and thought since it showed Berrios and Bryant, why not get it signed by each. Now I need to get Trevor May to finish it up. After that Cami and I took off to meet up with a large group of people who were all heading to the All Star Concert.
It was another awesome day of Cami and I hanging out and getting autographs.
