I saw that the schedule was posted on the Marlins' site today but where did you see which player was going to be at which event?

I'm going to have to try to hit a few of these.

This is from the Palm Beach Post Marlins blog.

Amazing how a majority of their fans are located in Broward County and not a SINGLE ONE of these events is in Broward. The Marlins never cease to amaze me at how terrible they are..on/off the field (except the scouting department).

 

[19Braves77]

The whole part of caravans is to bring in new fans not cater to the ones that are already complaining about the upcoming season. At Braves Fanfest, people couldn't believe that the Braves wouldn't have a caravan in Atlanta but would in Birmingham, Alabama.

I guess....but they are completely alienating their English-speaking fans and their Broward fans. The last 'event' up here was a couple players coming to Barnes and Noble and reading a book......that was in '05. Nuthin' since. And the 90% english-speaking people at the games have to listen to latino music between innings......

 

[Captian23]

Even more amazing is that a Rule 5 guy is going to so many signings (Zach Kroenke)

 

[Bat2006]

I didn't know that Pembroke Pines was located in Dade. Same with the Bank Atlantic Center. Bonaventure CC as well. Not to mention the Hard Rock.

Ft. Lauderdale, then.

PP is 35 minutes away
BA isn't too far away..there's one
Bonaventure--no clue where that is
Hard Rock is 30 minutes away.

Bank Atlantic and Hard Rock aren't too far away...but it's during the day...and I can't skip school (as others can't skip work).....

Basically, the point is...the marlins do a terrible job in these things, and their fan-base suffers because of it.

I made the trek down to Homestead today for the Habitat for Humanity stop. I scored 5 autographs on a collectible helmet and was able to meet my baseball hero, Andre Dawson.
