October 29, 201312 yr This is not sitting well with the general fan (read facebook fan) the comments out there are ripping Sox for extreme prices vs. 99 loss team. FWIW.
October 31, 201312 yr The prices have been about the same for a few years now. If they'd drop back closer to what they were in 05 or 06 where the passes where included in the price of the hotel room, I might think about going again.

November 26, 201312 yr So nearly $400 for the weekend? Yikes. Looks like I won't be attending SoxFest for a while.

January 9, 201412 yr Author CHICAGO – The Chicago White Sox announced an expanded list of former players scheduled to appear at SoxFest 2014, which now includes special guest Bobby Jenks, the closer on the White Sox 2005 World Series Championship team. Jenks joins an impressive list of other former Sox players planning to attend, including Bo Jackson, Ron Kittle, Carlos May, Minnie Minoso, Tom Paciorek, Gary Peters, Jim Thome and Frank Thomas, who yesterday was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame. White Sox manager Robin Ventura also will be in attendance, as well as pitching coach Don Cooper and new hitting coach Todd Steverson. Current players Jose Abreu, Adam Dunn, Adam Eaton, Avisail Garcia, Erik Johnson, Nate Jones, Paul Konerko, Matt Lindstrom, Josh Phegley, Alexei Ramirez and Marcus Semien, and White Sox prospect Micah Johnson, all are scheduled to be at SoxFest.
January 9, 201412 yr Tanaka would be a heck of a Soxfest surprise move! I almost put that in green. It would be very unlikely. Which would make it that much more awesome.
January 9, 201412 yr Author Tanaka's deadline is January 24. You know what else is January 24? The first day of Soxfest.
January 21, 201412 yr They have now officially posted the schedule of seminars and autographs for Soxfest and I was hoping to get a little feedback if possible. Schedule My main question is regarding Sunday. The #1 person I would like to get an autograph from this day would be Jim Thome with Bo Jackson being 2nd. However, with Bo signing at 9:00AM and Thome signing at noon, I am not entirely sure if I would be able to get both. For those that have been to Soxfest before, do you think that Thome will fill up immedaitely? Or do you think that I would have decent luck trying for both? Any advice you could give would be appreciated.

January 22, 201412 yr Frank Thomas signing was moved from Sunday to Sat at 1pm now... https://www.facebook.com/notes/chicago-whit...152557517853047 Edited January 22, 201412 yr by yazz32

Thanks for the response. I am just worried that the line for Thome will be completely filled before I would be done getting Bo Jackson. I know that Frank Thomas and Robin Ventura tend to fill up super fast. Not really sure how well Thome will draw.
