Brooklyn Dodger Reunion April 19-20 Secaucus, NJ

[metrotheme]

I am not the promoter of this event, but I thought that this might excite some of the Dodger fans on here. The prices are a bit high, but this will probably be the last reunion like this.

I have been planning to attend (SATURDAY) for months now. I will arrive early and leave late, wearing my Brooklyn finest! Can't wait.

I Have the B. Dodger Bat

I have a great B Dodger bat for the autographs, but lack the $600+++ to get it autographed. It would be great to go see these great players from Flatbush.

Brooklyn Dodger Festival

I attended the Brooklyn Dodger fest today in Secaucus, NJ. Both Duke Snider and Andy Pafko were "no-shows". Saw all the other Dodgers and spent the day schmoozing with Wayne Terwilliger ('51 Bklyn--37 games). Had a great time. I'll post some photos in the near future.

For the two players I wanted, I got to their tables towards the end of their sessions, so there wasn't any line, but I was surprised at the length of the lines for some of the players, especially Twig, but then again, maybe for each player, early on, there were long lines because there seemed to be people there that were getting everyone on their dodger pieces.

I had a chance to sit down and talk with quite a few of the players after they were done and they had some interesting stories to share.

The prices were a bit high (hence why I only got 2 autos) but this could have been the last Brooklyn reunion with this quantity of players.

George "Shotgun" Shuba was the only Dodger who wore his uniform jersey at the festival. Here's George, flanked by yours truly and my wife Linda:
