“Mannywood is alive in Arizona” –Vin Scully

Kyle, Brandie, and I went to the Dodgers/Diamondbacks game at Chase field. Kyle thought it would be fun to make a Mannywood, AZ sign for the game. So of course, I ran with that idea. We have become huge Manny fans since he has come to the Dodgers. With the help of my Cricut (which never disappoints), I made the sign. Well, it is actually a banner since it is so long. Almost 7 feet!!! I was given tickets from my wonderful company and knew exactly where we would be sitting, so it was perfect.
Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine we would get the exposure we did (national television!!!). I just wanted to get on the Jumbotron or something.

Here is the list of where I know we were seen on television:
L.A. feed of the game
Phoenix feed of the game
SportsCenter on ESPN
Baseball Tonight on ESPN
Fox Sports Arizona Final Score
Channel 7 (ABC) in L.A.
Channel 12 (NBC) in Phoenix

The following people saw us:
Kyle’s mom
Kyle’s grandparents
Uncle Bobby and Aunt Dolores
Uncle Tino
Sonserey
Amanda, Mark, Ranae, and Zac from work
Shawn
(If you saw us, let me know and I will add you to the list)
