    I was just given a few tickets to the event. It will be my first. What's the deal? Is it just basically an autograph session or can we chat a little with each player?

    Will they be annoyed if I bring some memerobilia for them to sign? Cameras/video allowed?

    I apologize if this has been covered already, I just don't want to look foolish when I show up...

    The info that was sent out to the season ticket holders was that each player will sign one thing for you and they also will have a stack of their own cards signed at their table. There won't be time to talk to them really because it is expected to be packed because of Freddy. Last year waiting in line was about an hour, I expect this year to be worse. They will let you take pictures but not to hold up the line. In other words, no pictures taken WITH the players but you can take pictures OF the players, like when they are signing your item for instance.

    Hope that helps.

    They just did this after the Metroscum game. Is this another session of the same thing? or is this something different?

    After the historic win over the metro the team had a "Youth Fan Club" autograph session. It was supposed to be only for youth fans, but it was hard to tell whether some parents were youths or adults! ;)

    And now for something complety different, this Sunday it is "Season ticket holders" meet the team day, this is where adults can be kids again, including moi. :D

    The big difference is that this Sunday there will be one long line for everyone, and each person goes from player to player getting their autograph.

    From past experiences...if you get to the site early enough you can usually bump into some of the guys in the parking lot or just hanging out before heading down to the pool table area to eat, you can also catch some of them in the play area, they all seem to be pretty cool guys.

    Unfortunately, I'll be out of town for the annual "Meat the Team Day." Oh well, the players are probably better off for it.
