TigerFest Memories

Here are some pictures from TIgerFest that I'd like to share with you, the readers of TWaSbL. The first picture I'd like to share is of the TigerFest Ice Sculpture. The Ice sculpture is always a popular photo op for people to take photos with as they meander around the stadium. I like the Tiger on the side there growling. His twin brother is outside of the shot.
This batch of Tiger Memories was located in the Archive Room. This is from the 1968 campaign, when the Tigers won the World Series. A picture of the 1972 ALCS team is on display, as well. Many other items and memories were on display, as well.
I took a tour through the Tiger Clubhouse, along with many other fans that were in attendance. The Tigers have very nice digs, and have a lot of room to move around. They also have many TVs and other amenities there.
Here is a picture of Bill Freehan, who was the Tigers catcher from the early 1960s to 1976. This is located in the Tiger Club, where an autograph area was located. He was a member of the Tigers for the 1968 season, when the team won the World Series. He's in a famous picture where he and Mickey Lolich are celebrating the Tigers Championship.
