We have a local college summer league baseball team called the Wisconsin Woodchucks and tonight was Gilbert Brown night. He threw out the first pitch and was signing autographs and was a really nice guy. I didn't get any pictures of Gilbert but I did get the following cards signed.

YAY, always nice to meet Gilbert Brown. He comes up as a sponsor with the golf tournament we hold every year at St. Germain golf course. He is ALWAYS a crowd favorite too. Great guy with an excellent personality for the event you described.

:lol:

He is actually smaller than you would think. He has lost a couple pounds since his playing days.

It was almost impossible to run against him. He was a clog in the middle.

i remember watching him HUGE is an understatement....i always liked how in a game the announcers would say what he was listed as and then guess 50 lbs higher for his actual weight
