We were on hand when the gates opened, and greeted the fans as they came in. We then led a parade of costumed kids around the field, and stopped along the first base line to pose for pictures. Vader was escorted to the mound to through the first pitch. We then spent the next few innings in the stands, posing for lots of pictures with the fans.
