Stripers Bobblehead Suggestions

My idea for bobbleheads the Gwinnett Stripers should give away. They’re giving away four this year. Perhaps one will be another Star Wars bobble, though since bobbleheads nights and Star Wars nights both draw large crowds, it seems like a waste to combine the two.

With Acuna likely to be on the opening day roster in Gwinnett, I expect him to be the April 14 honoree. With Chipper headed to the Hall of Fame in July, he’ll be one of the last two. 

Usually one of the bobbles is a mascot (Chopper?) or local figure - last year it was announcer Tony Schiavone. Could be a Chopper or fish or manager Damon Berryhill - all likely suspects.

Here are my suggestions. The "2017" denotes my prediction for this year. Can't wait to find out for sure. See you at CoolRay on bobblehead night. 

Tommie Aaron 
Ronald Acuna 2017
Ozzie Albies 2017
Manager Damon Berryhill 2017
Johan Camargo

Chipper Jones HOF 2017

I might even attend a cap or t-shirt giveaway game, or hit the end of season half price sale to nab some Striper swag.
