July Bobbles - & Snow Globes?

July bobblehead SGA’s and other interesting giveaways and special entertainment that caught my eye. What did I leave out?

This may be the longest list I’ve ever put together for one month. Granted the list is chock-full of snow globe giveaways. I guess that’s a thing now. Maybe I should post this in the Facebook Snow Globe group as well. You know we’ve jumped the shark when someone gives away a Game of Thrones snow globe. Rumor: Jon Stone is changing his middle name to "Snow Globe."

This month’s spotlight team is the Lake Elsinore Storm, with two zany promotions to liven up otherwise dreary weekday games, plus a double mascot bobblehead giveaway to boot. This is the team that tried to trade for Tim Tebow - in 2012. Can’t believe they’re not giving away a snow globe. Maybe next month.

I may just make it to two games this month. How ‘bout you?
