    My Wahoos' Milestones Signed Photos

    Hi guys, early in the Wahoos' season I got the idea to make photos documenting milestones in the Wahoos first season and get them signed by the players involved. Made them in MS Paint, but still I think they turned out alright! Almost have all of the ones I've made so far signed, also made a few "Greatest Moments" photos. I'll be sure to post more here when I get them. Here's what I have so far-

    First Hit - 4/5/12 - Didi Gregorius


    First Home Run - 4/5/12 - Henry Rodriguez


    First Save - 4/5/12 - Donnie Joseph

    Also have video of him signing it-

    "The Bunt Heard 'Round The Gulf" - 4/7/12 - Brian Peacock and Josh Fellhauer


    Speaking of walk-off bunts! Here's something I call a "Fellhauer Fun Fact" Posted this on Twitter. Felly enjoyed it-


    J.C. Sulbaran Named Southern League "Pitcher Of The Week" - 5/6/12 - J.C. Sulbaran


    "The Bunt Heard 'Round The Gulf II" - 6/13/12 - Mark Fleury and Josh Fellhauer


    "The Ono Hitter" (Ono is Hawaiian for "Wahoo", and...it sounds like oh no, get it? Eh? Eh? It's also the name of the ale they make down at the ballpark) - 6/16/12 - Daniel Corcino - Now for some reason Daniel signed this twice (I think it's cool though!) Still need to get Wilkin to sign it as well


    And that's all for now!

    Not to worry my friend, got the new Sharpie already taken care of!

    And believe it or not I actually prefer black over the blue. I've tried blue before and ehh....I just prefer black.

    Cingrani did a signing once and he had a blue Sharpie, wasn't a big fan of how it looked...

    Some sweet pics.. Is there one of the Opening Day roster? Then have one of the season ending roster, and have a recap of the players, on both.

    That's some really nice stuff. I usually try and get a lot of the Dragons when they come here to play the Hot Rods.

    I believe the reason why the blue sharpie is used on stuff like the photos and cards is because over time the black will somewhat fade more than the blue. At least that is what one of guys at the stadium told me.

    I have heard black will yellow out over time. But on the other hand, I have stuff from 2002 signed in black that is still fine so who knows really

    Eventually it will all fade. The key is to keep it out of the sunlight or close to any bright lights.
