FanFest Photos: Autographs
By mlblogsroyals1
The autograph stages at FanFest are a hit with fans of all ages…hundreds lined up to get a signature from Royals heroes of the past (left), present (below left), and future (below right).
Fans bring a variety of items through the autograph lines. We saw one woman with a bowling ball (try carrying that around FanFest for a few hours!)…Royals players have been signing the ball for the last five years! Some items are easy to sign, while David DeJesus found out that a little more precision was needed to inscribe this stuffed animal.
Here’s Joakim Soria penning his John Hancock on a green and white Royals Halfway to St. Paddy’s Day hat. Maybe this fan is hoping that Joakim’s signature will bring them a little luck.
New Royal Coco Crisp received loud cheers from the fans, who were more than happy to add Coco’s signature to their collection.
Sometimes fans cherish the chance to welcome the newest players to Kansas City just as much as the signature.
