    Cardboard Fan Cut-Outs

    If there is a discussion on this elsewhere, apologies for missing it. My son wanted to be a cardboard fan so I sent in the $75 and a pic. Received confirmation from the team that it was received, but haven’t heard back since. Anyone else do this and/or have info on the process? I am assuming at this point they might be waiting for the next set of home games.

    They are probably still working through the orders I know they have a huge demand. They originally thought they were going to sell maybe 1000 to 1500 total and they sold 900 in the first 4 hours. They said they are going to install them in waves and I believe they are supposed to mail you back after if has been installed. I would think by next week we will start seeing some of these.

    Glad to hear there was high demand. Right now I’m encouraged by anything I hear that indicates people are excited about something and/or willing to spend money on something non-essential. Thank you for the info.

    Yes they said last night 1800 sold so far and they are supposed to start installing them this weekend while they are on the road in Detroit. So you should start seeing a least some of these with next week's Cleveland series

    Bell will go through that number in about 8 innings or so.

    I don’t know. I have not received anything from the Reds other than the initial confirmation that they’d email me a pic once it’s installed. My son really, really wants his cardboard version to get a hole blown in him from a foul ball. The hopes and dreams of an 8 year old boy

    Here's to your son getting blasted by a foul ball this year (AND THIS YEAR ONLY) at Great American Ballpark!

    I hope they put them in the outfield instead of the huge tarps

    They are a really good idea...hopefully they avoid the embarrassment my english football team Leeds did when they accidentally allowed a crowdie of Osama Bin Laden to be installed.
