I didn't see where anyone had started a thread on Fan Pack Successes, so I thought I would start one here.

Today's mail brought a Fan Pack from the Cincinnati Reds:
8x10 2006 Reds Team Photo
Sealed Pck of Reds Upper Deck Cards
1 Pocket Schedule
1 Reds Window Decal

I honestly didn't know that baseball teams even offered these. That is very cool. Are they listed as available on teams websites?

I've done a fan pack thread in the hockey forum and hernant15 has started one in the football forum. This should be in the baseball forum (where I have moved it) and I encourage you to keep trying the other teams and update your successes here.

Nice stuff! I might send in for a Baltimore one!

Thanks for the heads up. I didn't think to look in the individual sports forums.

Hope you have better luck than me. I sent to every NFL team and got about 5 responses to my mail...

Nice stuff !!

Jason, sorry I didn't see this earlier. I email the individual teams. There is contact email for each team on their websites. It's an inexpensive way to collect pocket schedules, yearbooks, programs, schedule magnets, player pictures, ect. You will occasionally get an autograph, as well. Last year the Red Sox sent me a package of Fenway dirt, a pocket schedule, and a signed photo of Wily Mo Pena. Pretty nice!

Today brought 2 MLB Fan Packs...

1.) Milwaukee Brewers
2 Pocket Schedules
1 Brewer mascot refrigerator magnet
Information on Brewers Kids Club

2.) Pittsburgh Pirates
1 Pocket Schedule
1 PNC Park Sticker
7-Different Player Post Cards

A Flyer on Obtaining Autographs at SafeCo Field
A Fold Out Mini-Poster of Safeco Field
An Uncut sheet of Mariners Player Cards
(Raul Ibanez, Kenji Johjima, JJ Putz, Felix Hernandez, Yuniesky Betancourt, Jose Lopez)

Neat topic - I'll have to try it! Any successes from the Mets or Cubs?

How do you do it??

Congrats! Hope you can get more!

I just emailed the teams. I go to each team web site and use the email feature under "contact" and request a Fan Pack. I also include my address information in the original request. Most teams will respond to an email request. Some don't. Some teams ask you to fill out a contact form and will send you something if you fill out the form.

Not yet, but I just sent out requests last week via email. The Mets and Cubs usually respond. The Mets normally send there Fan Packs out at the end of the season.

I'm sure you didn't mess up. Just let them know in your email that you are a fan of the team, and would like for them to send you a Fan Pack. Make sure you include your mailing address. Sometimes they will email you to let you know they sending something out, but usually they will just respond by sending you something.
