Surprise guest to throw out Sunday's ceremonial first pitchâ?¦ Guesses please

[jason21nl]

I think the only ones mentioned so far that are worthy of being held as a surprise and that wouldn't be a disappointment as a surprise are Aaron, Hoffman(if they play Hells Bells) and Monsters Inc.

I would add Molitor to that list as well...but I don't think it's very likely. I'm hoping it's not Monster's Inc, that just doesn't feel right. I think it will be (and am hoping it is) Aaron...I think it would get the crowd jacked and maybe inspire the players a little bit (wishful thinking?).

As sad as it sounds, I honestly think the fans would be more jacked up if it were Monster's Inc crew over Aaron at this point

Then they had better WIN these next two games. Otherwise, I will still be talking about the '82 team. We celebrate the World Series team because we haven't sniffed another one for the past 28 seasons. The '82 team won three elimination games in a row (four if you count the Baltimore game).

I don't think they care if the fans do. I think they get tired of being asked about it by the media. When they clinched, they were asked, when they won the division series, they were asked. That gets old, and I think the players would rather not hear about a team that lost a world series 29 years ago.

[RockCoCougars]

Yes, but how long did they talk about the first two Super Bowl teams (or the Lombardi teams in general)? Until the Packers won one (ironically 29 years later, if I'm not mistaken). This team needs to match or preferably exceed the '82 team to carve their own identity. Otherwise, they are basically a better 2008 team.

I think Hank Aaron would be the best choice, since Yount, Selig and Uecker have all already thrown out 1st pitches this postseason.

[razzzorsharp]

Maybe it's Mark A.

[owbc]

I would be really surprised if it isn't Hank Aaron.

[craigharmann]

Tommy Thompson.

[pebadger]

I will be mildly upset if they put some joker out there in a Beast suit to throw out the first pitch.

[YutakaEnatsu]

Mark Brouhard

Marshall Edwards

Past LCS heroes.

[Baldkin]

George Petak would be quite the surprise, but kind of disappointing.

Red Schoendienst?

[Paul77]

The more I think about it, I think it's Cooper. While cool, I don't think he is worthy of "super secret"status.

[PrinceEatMeat]

How bout Aaron Rodgers? He could make it in time. His presser ended at 3:30.

[1992casey]

Rodgers certainly makes sense. However, had the Rangers lost last night, a Rodgers appearance would have been impossible. Given that the team announced a surprise, they would have needed to have a Plan B in their pocket.

[clint1313]

What about Gumby? He's a home state boy, just don't know if he has attained secret status.

[ilovebeer]

I have more guesses, how about Danny Gokey or Tom Wopat.

[razzzorsharp]

Maybe it's Scott Boras throwing a contract wrapped around a baseball to Prince to sign.

[FoxyFoxes]

Scott Walker..............my mom would riot!

[whizkid]

So would I.

[mothershipconnection]

Maybe it's Scott Boras throwing a contract wrapped around a baseball to Prince to sign.

 

That'd be the best surprise possible. I also want Steve Bartman there in full Cardinals garb.

[FoxyFoxes]

This thread has almost as many classic ideas as the "girlfriend " thread in the off topic.

[DHonks]

I say the trio of Gumby, Molly, and the Kid all throw out 1st pitches

[1992casey]

There should be some news soon. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[And That]

Ulice Payne

Win.

 

I'll go with Jean-Marc Chapus or some other member of the ownership group that no one has heard of.

[carniesandrubes]

Wow, what a letdown. Hopefully the game doesn't follow suit...

[razzzorsharp]

Whatever, it was fun to speculate.
