Mariners and Oregon Football 9/8
Started the day of going to the hotel for the Mariners, then headed down to Comerica to get the Mariners in the park and then finished up doing Oregon Football postgame @ Michigan.
Here are the totals:
Mariners Hotel:
Ben Broussard: 3/3
Brandon Morrow: 3/3
Jeremy Reed: 1/3
Richie Sexson: 1/2, blew up at some kid who was there who asked Richie to put him batting average under his autograph as a joke. Richie actually got in his face and started swearing at him it was pretty funny. I think he signed just to show this kid up.
Charlton Jimerson 1/1
Jarrod Washburn 1/1
Weaver and Vidro also signed but I was getting something to eat down the street and missed them.
Mariners Inside the Park:
Ryan Feierabend: 2/2
Ichiro: SP OMLB Ball (Black Ink Pen) I was actually on the Tigers side as they were just about to come off the field and I see a bunch of people start running to the corner of the dugout and I see Ichiro walking over. I get over there pretty quickly get a photo out then notice he is only using an ink pen, grab a baseball and get him 1 or 2 people later. It's the 1st time Ive seen him sign in Ink Pen only in the 10+ times Ive gotten him. He probably signed about 20-30 total autographs.
Kenji also signed about 10 over the top of the dugout as Ichiro was signing but I didnt bother trying for him as Ive gotten him in the past.
Also forgot to add I went for the Mariners postgame on Friday and only got George Sherill 4/4, I got flat turned down by about 4-5 guys and no one else would even look over getting on the bus.
I then headed up to Ann Arbor for postgame and got the following:
Dennis Dixon: 2 8x10's, really cool stood around and signed for a good 15 minutes while talking to family and friends and had no problem with multiples.
Phil Knight: 8x10 photo paper, For anyone that dosnt know he is the founder and owner of Nike. He also just donated 100 millon to Oregon's athletic program.
Harold Reynolds: 8x10 photo paper, gave me a nice huge autograph. I could only think he is there because he's from the state of Oregon.
Ahamd Rashad was also there signing but would not do blank photo paper or index cards.
I also got an Oregon team signed football with about 35 players on it.
Next up: Not really sure I might head down to Akron if they make the EL Championship also I'll probably go to Ann Arbor for Notre Dame next weekend.
