Bobblechair Greatness

On Twitter today I posted this picture.

This was a giveaway several weeks back on a weekend where I couldn't make it up to Pittsburgh.  I was super bummed.  Well, eBay to the rescue!

In case you don't remember here is the moment the bobblechair captures.


Let's take a close look at the greatest stadium giveaway in the history of mankind.




 I applaud the marketing folks for the Pirates with the taking a unique/funny moment and running with it.  My only complaint is that this doesn't look much like Walk, but beggars can't be choosers.

Thanks for reading.

    1. Ha! I didn't even notice the socks! That's funny.
      Pittsburgh's marketing group produced a winner right there, no doubt.

  3. I saw a few pop up on eBay, nice to see that you snagged one! I wonder if he's willing to sign one?

    1. I heard he signed a bunch the day of the game. He and Steve Blass are very accessible. A few years back when they did a dual bobble of Blass and Manny Sanguillen my friend got both to sign that same day. Quite a feat.

    1. Bob Walk is a living public service announcement.

  6. That's awesome! It's not likely... but I hope to one day stumble across this bobble at the flea market, so I can add it to my bobble shelf.

    1. eBay is a hard one to buy bobbles from. The shipping usually kills you.

  7. Agreeing with the blogosphere, that is one imaginative and fun bobble!
