So How Crowded Was McCovey Cove?

Okay, so I didn't have a ticket to the All-Star Game itself ... BUT I went to FanFest, All-Star Sunday (Futures and Legends games), All-Star Workout Day (better know as The Home Run Derby) and the Red Carpet event before the All-Star Game. Four days of festivities. Whew!



How were the events? THEY TOTALLY ROCKED! San Francisco knows how to have fun! I can't even tell you which thing was the most fun because there were so many things going on each and every day - autographs, games, giveaways, entertainment ... it was amazing!



Here is a picture of Barry Bonds as he passed by on the Red Carpet. He was all smiles for the fans on this day!


How crowded was McCovey Cove? PACKED! The boats were touching each other out there. It was a truly awesome sight.



It is hard to see, but if you look at the bottom right hand corner of the water, you can see the crowding of the boats as they wait for the Home Run Derby to begin. Too bad they didn't get a chance to fight over any splash hit home runs on this night...

MLB All-Star Week in San Francisco


Well, my next cheesesteak review will have to wait a little while. It is Major League Baseball week in San Francisco and I will be at FanFest tomorrow, the Future Stars game on Sunday and the Home Run Derby on Monday. All festivities except the All-Star game itself (which is probably the most boring event of the week).





Here are some pictures from San Francisco. The first three were taken inside The Giants Dugout store, AT&T Park location. The two huge banners were hung in Union Square right on The Westin St. Francis Hotel. (Sorry about the watermarks. I hate having my photographs "borrowed" without my permission. You can take 'em, but they'll be kinda ugly with my eBay store mark across the middle.)
