SF Giants fanfest 2011 Pic heavy!

[89Giants]

Well as was expected it was pure madness at the park. Tons of new fans now that we are world champions. I got there at 9am, park opened at 9:30. There were so many people they stopped letting them in shortly after 11am(they said 40-50,000 showed up, other years about 7,000 to give you an idea). I stuck with my usual game plan from the last few years and ended up getting 47 autos. Im sure I got the most of anyone there. Great way to start the year. Got an official world series baseball and since lincy wouldnt SS it i'm gonna try and make it a team ball. Below are scans and pics from yesterday.














Lincecum let a woman kiss him on the cheek!

My buddy works on the Giants staff. Something to do with the Video stuff no clue actually. He said the Dunston was one of the nicest people he has met.

Nice stuff man I wish the Sox would do this stuff.

I can finally form my opinion on the Lincy 'stache! You did better than TigerFest, I take it there is not a heavily enforced one per policy?

The security workers kept yelling "one per person only!" but I would always hand them 2 and they would sign both. Helped that at the beginning the line was small and I just went through a few times.

I was thinking about heading down, but after seeing how many people did - I'm glad I didn't make the trip.

Congrats on the pick ups

It also helped that season ticket holders got in at 9:30 and non seasonticket holders got in at 11. unfortunately we were among those who had to wait until 11. We got there at 930 and our line started near the entrance to parking lot A...line went around the parking lot to the bridge. We left after the announcement that the park was at capacity (we were halfway between the Giants little league park and the bridge).
