The Padres FanFest is on Saturday 2/12. I won't be there, which is a shame because we were going to put on a blogging clinic in the handicapped stall of the Men's room. Maybe next year.
I think the plan is for Gaslamp Ballers to meet up at 3rd base at 11:30am. This isn't a mandatory event but some of you have expressed interest in having a common meeting spot and it worked well last time we did it.
Don't forget that Season Ticket Holders enter early at 9am with a voucher.
Here are some highlights from last year's FanFest to act as a fluffer to get you excited for next week:
