Message: [QUOTE="DoubleDee, post: 1446947, member: 3193"] I for one am super stoked for fan fest. I never miss fan fest, or the spring game, but let's be honest... Neither one is ever over the top exciting. Last years fan fest was the best we'd seen in years, at least in my opinion since they used to have the food and player introductions inside Manley. I'm not sure how much we can thank Coyle for this years upgrade but whether or not it was his input it is definitely looking like a good time. I've said for a couple years that it would be nice to see the Football wing. CHECK I've always missed the food they used to have there, when lately we've just gotten free ice cream sandwiches etc. CHECK Wouldn't it be nice to see the new IPF?? CHECK Kid fun, and stations for some of the other sports similar to last year? CHECK Sideline pass for STH to the football practice? CHECK I'm not sure what it is, but there is something called soccer happening there too. But, being the pessimist, there is one thing that needs to change for the kids... There is only ONE correct way to have meet and greets with the players/coaches afterward. You cannot have multiple tables, or spread out selfie stations. What you get is a mass of people at Shafer, or Hunt, or Paulus a few years ago, and no one with other players. So in the slotted 20 minutes or so, your kid doesn't get Hunt, but gets the third string somebody. The proper way, which is often seen at the hardwood dinner: ONE long table + pile of posters + sign it and slide it down to the next guy + one way in, and one way out = everyone gets everyone's signature. This is the formula for happy youth fans. Please use this method in the future. I've seen too many thirty or forty something's reaching over little kids for their chance at getting their ball, or poster signed. [/QUOTE]
