fan

I'm not into baseball, but at the last minute on Sunday I decide to go. First Giants game for me, second professional game overall. We get there late. They are already in the 3rd inning. Noise and distractions all around us, we are in the bleachers in outfield with our backs to the big screen. I sit down with my ever so appropriate hot dog and figure out who they are playing. At least our team is winning. I turn and look up at the big screen every once in awhile to figure out what is going on. And then I see my seat number up there - it is fan appreciate day and I just won something.

Well Walt, it looks like you have yourself a cap. I also got an autographed bobblehead and an authentic 'coachers' jackets. I'm swimming in the jacket and I have no idea what I would do with a bobblehead.

What an ironic & bizarre experience. I just had to laugh.

Oh, and the Giants did win after all.

Awesome.

As for the bobblehead, some people put them on the dashboard of their car and it bobs for them. So in your case, maybe you can take it on the bus and put it on the seat beside you. You could be the bobble-girl...or not. But if you do, wear the oversize jacket to add to the mystic... :-)
