It says it will be from 11:30 to 1:30pm,for autographs and pictures with players. I have never been to a "Spring Game" I was wondering how it will work, like the earlier you are there that is the order you go in or something. Or do you need to buy advance tickets or what? Also how many autographs and pictures do you normally get? Like time wise do you have enough time for a lot or just a few? (need to know so I can get Eric Berry Autograph for sure) THANKS IN ADVANCE

The 'mob' forms outside the practice field , then they open the gates and everyone runs in. If you're in the front you can get a bunch, if you have to wait through all of the lines, you'll have to pick and choose in order to ensure you get who you want. The lines start out orderly at first and then everyone starts getting rude and jumping in front. Last year, I saw someone pay $20 to switch places with someone at the front of the line to see coach Fulmer! :lolabove:

that reminds me of the time I was in a bar and in line to use the bath room. I was the next guy in line and standing there waiting (had to be atleast 10-12 other guys behind). this one dude, drunk as hell, comes up to me and says "dude. I'll give you 10 bucks if you let me go infront of you." so me being the poor college student that I am said "sure". dude crabs his wallet hands me the money and then walks into the bathroom. I check the bill and it's a 100 bill. did I feel bad? sure, but atleast I had nice 100 dollar bill in my pocket and that guy will never even remember what he did.

Anybody else see the guy last year that had his whole body autographed by the team. That was a borderline Bamer move.

If you hang around after the game, you can get a bunch more and not have to be as selective. Last year they came out at gate 8 I think it is?? because of the construction. But normally they come out over by gate 21.

Yes...it is better to meet players after the game. The only thing is they aren't as focused on signing autographs at that time. I interrupted Eric Ainge having an arguement with his girlfriend to get his autograph :). Lines are normally insanely long for high profile players and coach.

If you have children you can put them into the JR Vol Club and you get in a little earlier before they let the masses in or at least they did in the past...This year I have not received anything on the game that tells if that is still the case.
