Which baseball players have you met?
I asked this last year, and I wanna ask again since I want to see who everyone's met :). Some questions, you can ask once or twice :). Don't you agree?
This season, I got to meet Dewayne Statts and Todd Kalas for my birthday :) which turned out to be freaking awesome haha :). They were really nice guys. I also got Wade Davis's autograph (even though it was for kids 14 and under-and I managed to look like a 14 year old :D).
He didn't really say that much to me except for "Your Welcome" when I told him "Thank you".
Anyways, what was your experince like meeting this player, was he nice, to you?, was he rude?. What was it like?.
If you havent met a player, who would you meet and why would you like to meet this person?
BQ: Have you ever had any weird dreams about your favorite player?.
* Again, Im sorry if I asked this question before, but I wanted to see who people have met, and what it was like for them.

Tim Lincecum: This guy was so much fun. Got to talk to him for only a few seconds. I didn't even end up getting an utogrraph though
David Price: Met him at a Jays game. I ended him getting to talk to him and Matt garza as no one was there (as they never are at Jays games lmao) but he seems nice. I talked to him about the rays and what it was like to go to the World Series. I got an autograph.
Matt Garza: Met him when talking to David prize. They came over ans signed me and my friends autographs. We talked about how he felt in the World Series. Despite the fact I don't like the Rays, they are really nice guys.
Scott Rolen: This was fun, he is really a nice guy. He was just signing and talking about playing for the Jays. He was signing some autographs before a Jays game.
Joe Inglett: No big deal lmao, hut still fun. He was just signing autographs, not talking.
BQ: I had a dream that Adam Lind was hitting really crappy. Oh wait, that's not a dream!

Met and talked to Ryan Braun. He was very nice, we talked for a while about playing for Milwaukee and his ROY in 2007. (Met him in 2008) I'm going to say it was an awesome experience.
I met Paul Molitor when I was a kid and have a picture of me on his shoulders.
Other than that, just brief encounters for an autograph.
BQ: Not weird, but I've had dreams of me actually being on the Brewers, well, a little weird since I'm female. I'm usually pretty good too!

I've only met players on my favorite team. I've met Willie McCovey, Barry Zito (actually really nice), Jeremy Affeldt, Jonathon Sanchez, Sergio Romo (although I only said "thank you"), Joe Martinez, and Merkin Valdez. All of the them were very nice, but I only talked to them for a couple seconds.
BQ: I've had some really weird ones, but non about my favorite players. I had one where Barry Zito was my step brother and we were all in a Japanese tea house wrapping presents for his mom.

Roger Clemens: Not a fan of the man anymore, but this was back in '03 and he was a very nice guy
Phil Coke: Seemed very obsessed we trying to be funny and didn't really know what else to do/say around fans. Pretty much he was awkward.
BQ: No

My "best experience" i guess you can say is meeting Barry Zito, Mark Mulder, Eric Byrnes, Tim Hudson, and Nick Swisher back when the A's came to town while they were having dinner.
I saw them outside and asked for autographs and they were all very cool and chill. Zito was really funny as well as Eric.

Hi,
I personally haven't but my grandfather painted Yogi Berra's house in 1956. He gave him a team signed ball with 26/27 autos on it. Mickey & Yogi signed on the sweet spot. The ball is still in the original Spalding box & was rarely taken out.
