July 5, 200619 yr Crede and AJ will be at the taste on Thursday morning between 11:00 and 1:00 according to the team's official website.
July 5, 200619 yr and not to be outdone--southpaw will be there, riding a harley and hitting cops with nunchackus...
July 5, 200619 yr I was there last year when it was B-Mac, Willie, and Freddy Garcia. Suprisingly it wasn't too busy and I only waited in line for about 25 minutes. I'd imagine it will be a bit more crowded this year, however.

July 5, 200619 yr Man, I really want to go, but I work tomorrow. I'd have to get there at like 8:00 am and stand in line for 4 hours. Would someone hold down a spot in line for me? I'll give you a few food and beer tickets to the taste. PM me if you're interested.
July 5, 200619 yr damn, I wish i didn't have to work, then maybe my life goal of getting a picture with joe could be accomplished
July 5, 200619 yr i think they should have the taste in January. I think it would be more intresting.

July 6, 200619 yr Did anyone meet Crede and AJ? I went to the Taste for lunch, but didn't have enough free time to try and meet them. The line was extremely long. I did want to tell Crede my little story though. I've gone to 2 games this year (Seattle and Houston) and Crede has hit grand slams in both games. I have tickets to this Saturdays game against Boston, so, I'm expecting a slam from Crede. I would've loved to tell him that.
July 6, 200619 yr How long was the line? Did you see any news cameras around? I'm hoping they'll show it on the local news tonight.
July 6, 200619 yr It's hard to estimate the line, I'll take a guess and say approximately 400-600 people long (??) This was right about 12 noon. I didn't see any news cameras, but I only hung around for about 5 minutes and watched AJ and JC sign stuff on a platform from about 30 feet away, behinf a barrier with Chicago's finest standing guard.

I was there and it was complete insanity. There were alot more than 400 people. If you didn't get in line by 10 or so you had no chance to get their autographs. I got there at 11:30 hence I ended up with Bill Melton and Ron Kittle who most people around me had no clue who they were.

July 7, 200619 yr I'm not surprised they didn't know who those guys were but it would not have been like that 3 years ago. Of course, I was showing up to signings for Baines and others and there might only be 100 people waiting
