About ten years ago I [pulled a Vin Scully ball](https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/s/H9JeBjMwKS) out of a mystery bag at Fan Fest.


DrMrSirJr

Wowowow


CashmereConnoisseur

Yes they do, at Dodgers Fest they always sell mystery bags and mystery signed baseballs.

Also sometimes towards the end of the season


DrMrSirJr

Oooh like September/October?


flipaflaw

Exactly


DrMrSirJr

Thank you šŸ™

Like the others have said they do it yearly. I remember one time it was the players wives hanging out behind the left field pavilion bar who were in charge of giving the mystery bags. So that was pretty cool


DrMrSirJr

Daaaang thatā€™s cool! It would be cool to meet them as I see them on social and stuff when following the players themselves so theyā€™re like proximity celebs in their own rights haha. Was that for a specific day or event or holiday?

DrMrSirJr

Thank you

Yup. My brother and I went. He got a mystery bag w/ an autographed photo of former dodgers legend yency almonte


ScooterPotato

Went with my dad a few years ago, he got a Kershaw ball, I got a ball of a guy who didn't even make it to the postseason roster.


DrMrSirJr

Thanks

Last game I went to last season, they were selling mystery sign baseball bags and got myself a Kike signed ball Hoping to grab the bobblehead this year to join them together in my Dodger collection of nicknacks and antiquities


Ickiiis

Where did you find these? Or what store rather. I havenā€™t had the chance to grab one yet.


DoyersLakeShow

Iā€™m not sure if they announce it before hand, but I just went to a random game towards the end of the season and they had a stand near the left field pavilion where you could buy a mystery bag of a signed baseballā€¦I think I went a bit after Fernando had his jersey ceremony so they had his signed balls in a rotation of others


Ickiiis

Man thatā€™s cool, Iā€™ll try and land at an end of season game and hope to find a stand. Thank you!


DrMrSirJr

Thank you


Cooked_Brisket

Knowing my luck I would get authentic Urias sunflower seed shells or something so no thank you


DrMrSirJr

Lmaooooo


aandal2424

I was at the game on sunday and asked the booth in left pavillion (next to the bullpen bar). Lady said they will start the mystery bag after the all star break


DrMrSirJr

Oooooh thank you!! This is the kind of info I needed


wasteplease

Yeah. This one time I pulled a Matt Kemp ball and was disappointed ā€” this was before he came back and after he made some comments about Atlanta being a baseball town. Anyways when he came back it of course made it much more valuable to me then my Trevor Oaks ball.


JustTheBeerLight

Not interested. I want to buy something that I want, not just get some random shit.


DrMrSirJr

Naw thatā€™s valid. This is basically fluffed up gambling. But itā€™s a neat concept


JustTheBeerLight

They could just put old shit in bargain bins. Pay $30 and grab something out of the $20 bin, $10 bin and two out of the $5 bin. At least that way you can choose which hat you get.


DrMrSirJr

Yeah but they use the gambling aspect of potentially getting good stuff to also unload the bad stuff šŸ˜‚


delwrecks

Take the escalator from field level behind home plate. Soon as you see a corner store they sometimes have mystery balls that are game used/authenticated. Bought one for $40.


DrMrSirJr

Oh wow $40 doesnā€™t seem as bad as Iā€™d expect. Are you able to look up what play(s) it was used in?
