Does anyone know when the first Os Fanfest was?  I went since 1999, were there any before then?  Thanks.

You must be referring to autographs.

This is just for the event itself.  

No, talking about the Early Entry tickets.

As usual, the autograph voucher deal was a clusterfu....

Supposedly I and 2 friends are going to Fanfest, but the site would only sell me 2 tickets to the Eddie Murray autograph session..

I tried logging back on and buy another as a single, but by then it was 2:03 and the tickets were sold out.

I thought it went smoother than normal, other than defaulting to 2 autos for the first session at each station. I walked away with 6 vouchers, including 3 Eddies, and 2 Brooks.

I think I bought an Eddie and a Palmer for the same time (my wife will wait in one line while I wait in the other) but the receipts only shown General Admission without the session time. Hopefully it works out. Can't print them until Thursday.

Mine didn't give me an option to buy anything until 2:03. When I clicked on one, the Palmer tickets were already gone.

Probably because the people who come with their suitcases and  bats and all other crap bought those up.

I have seen those guys all the time at Fanfest  lugging their  suitcases and other stuff under their arm. Saw one once try to give a kid $35.00 for his ticket ,which had Machado in line.

Looks like I made a mistake buying just one of each. Should have bought two and offered it on here at cost. Oh well, next time.
