Vin Scully Bobblehead Night


The Dodger bobblehead season finally come to an end last night and they saved the best for last. The one and only Vin Scully gets bobble number ten in the Dodger Stadium Greats bobblehead series. Presented by Farmer John, this bobblehead was given to the first 50,000 fans in attendance. 

When I arrived at the stadium, I noticed that the Dodgers opened the parking lots early, which seemed to be a good thing. Many people got to the stadium early, and I think it helped, at least it did on the Loge level, where they opened the gates at 5:20. My wife and I separated, and she said it was chaotic up on the Reserve level. My final destination was the Right Field Pavilion and that line moved very quickly. 

Before the game started the Dodgers honored Vin Scully, who was on the field with his grandchildren, with a beautiful video tribute.Then Vinny came to the mound to throw out the ceremonial first pitch to Don Mattingly. When he got to the mound he did a wind up like Sandy Koufax, but he didn't throw the ball. He did however walk the ball to one of his grandchildren who then passed the ball down the line to the next grandchild and so on until it got to Don Mattingly.It was a great moment. Then one of Vin's grandaughters, Mackenzie Luderer, sang the Nation Anthem. As far as the game, the punchless Dodgers lost to the Arizona Diamondbacks 2-0. 

I love this bobblehead. I think it might be my new favorite.













I'm really happy this was the last bobblehead of the year. Getting to the stadium super early and dealing with all the people at Dodger Stadium is a lot of work and very stressful. Doing it ten times was too much. I hope the Dodgers can reduce the bobblehead number next season.

Scully And Koufax Special Edition Bobbleheads Available At BobblesGalore.com


In February, the Dodgers announced they would be offering limited edition Vin Scully and Sandy Koufax bobbleheads to season ticket holders with the purchase of a special ticket package. These two bobbleheads are now available at BobblesGalore.com. 


There were only 3,000 Scully's and 1,955 Koufax's made. Each bobblehead is numbered and comes with a certificate of authenticity. The Koufax pose is from his famous picture after he threw his fourth no-hitter, holding two baseballs in each hand. The Scully plays a portion of the famous Kirk Gibson homerun call from game 1 of the 1988 World Series.

Presented by Farmer John, this bobblehead will be given away on Thursday, August 30 when the Dodgers play the Arizona Diamondbacks.


This bobblehead, like every other bobblehead the Dodgers have given away this year, looks amazing. It looks like Vinny. The scorecard and book on the desk are a great touch and the microphone in his hand is the cherry on top. Great job!

Dodgers Tease Us With Vin Scully Bobblehead Silhouette

Via Dodgers Facebook page

In all my year of collecting bobbleheads, the upcoming Vin Scully bobblehead is the one I've been the most excited about. I think most Dodger fans and bobblehead collectors can say the same thing. Today the Dodgers gave us a little tease by announcing that the picture of the Vinny bobblehead will be unveiled tomorrow. From the Dodgers Facebook page:
Tomorrow, we will unveil the Vin Scully Bobblehead courtesy of Farmer John. The only way to ensure that you will get the first ever Vin Scully Bobblehead is with a 10-Game Flex Plan
I cannot wait for tomorrow. It's obviously him behind a desk and I think there's a microphone there. Any other guesses?

When I found about this I was pretty excited. That Scully call is my absolute favorite thing to listen to. It always gives me the chills. Koufax is my favorite athlete of all time and this new bobble is a must have. Now, I'm not a season ticket holder, but I am still going to try to get my hands on both of these bobbles.If there are any season ticket holders out there who don't plan on taking advantage of this offer, please contact me. Maybe we can work something out.
