Autographs: Davey Lopes

Here we are holding my toilet seat:
Davey Lopes

As I mentioned before, the great Dodgers Infield were going to be signing autographs together at a Card Shop in Van Nuys. Steve Garvey, Davey Lopes, Bill Russell and Ron Cey were present. I only needed Lopes to sign my Dodger Seat. The other three have already signed it. Lopes was scheduled to sign at 12pm. I arrived late, which meant I was at the end of the line. The good thing is that the line actually moved quickly.

Garvey and Cey had already signed. I did see Garvey in the Parking Lot. Cey was done with his session when I arrived. When I reached to Lopes, Russell was next to him. Russell was asked if the Dodgers were going to be any good next season, he replied "They need Pitching" I told Russell he already signed my seat in another event. Didn't want him to think I'm ignoring him or didn't want his autograph.

Gave the seat to Lopes and he signed it nicely. I asked Lopes for a picture and he stood up. A nice lady took the time to take a quick picture for me. Thank you!

It's weird knowing that he was with the Dodgers for so many years and now he's a coach with the Philadelphia Phillies.

Overall, it was a good event. Very organized. No complaints from me.

Peace!

lol no no no. Hey Julie, that's my Dodger Seat. It's a old seat from the Field Section. I just call it like that because other people have called my Dodger Seat the "Toilet Seat"

I like the nickname I guess :)
