Johnny Bench statue

The Reds are placing a statue of #5 at the entrance of the HOF. They're also taking donations for this. Anyone thinking about donating? Just curious.

Re: Johnny Bench statue

I donate every time I buy tickets, hot dogs, beer, peanuts, etc. I save my donations for organizations that don't have money. Just my .02.

Yeah, the RiC household is going to "donate" the $100 so we can get a little statue in return.

Re: Johnny Bench statue

They should place it in Left Field. The statue would play better defense.

Re: Johnny Bench statue

A picture Bench put up on Twitter a few days ago. I'm assuming this is what the statue will look like: http://yfrog.com/gzlonhzj
