Well, we're getting another chance, like this fan:
The 2013 World Series Trophy Tour started in Sacramento this past January 8th, Unlike two years ago, it made only one stop at Sacramento City Hall. Last time, the team had two showings: the State Capitol in the morning and City Hall in the afternoon.
The tour started here:
The line started forming well before noon.
Most wore Giants memorabilia, including jerseys of their favorite players...
This woman wore a big Giants blanket, as if she was prepared for a home game back in the Candlestick days...
In fact the line literally went around the block when the doors opened at around 2:30. Thanks to my ability to wait, developed when I waited HOURS to get an autograph of Quentin Tarantino at Comic-Con, it wasn't that bad.
Even Mayor Kevin Johnson was there to welcome the fans who waited for this chance.
This time, I was not allowed to get a personal photo of myself with the trophies. I can order one through the team's website, like I did when I was at the Browncoats Cruise a few years back. So, here's a blast from my past in 2010...
Notice back then, I had a piece of the 1989 World Series, plus the ticket stub to the last Candlestick game. This time, I wore an San Jose Giants jacket plus a World Series cap.
