New Goldy Bobblehead

The fine people at the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame are producing the newest Goldy Gopher Bobblehead!  I can't wait to add this one to my collection.  Most readers know I'm not a huge fan of Forever Collectible bobbles (I just like other looks better) but this will be an FC bobblehead.  They'll ship later this summer and of course Goldy is in a boat.  Ever since PJ Fleck was announced as the Gopher football coach, RTB (Row the Boat) has been everywhere.  It's always, Row the Boat, Ski-U-Mah.  And I love it.

Zach LaVine Bobblehead

A few days ago, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame & Museum announced it was taking pre-orders for a Zach LaVine bobblehead, celebrating his slam dunk championship at NBA All-Star Weekend.  I know one of the Co-Founders of the Hall, Phil Sklar.  Once I saw the announcement, I immediately emailed him to ask him some questions.  Obviously LaVine has given Timberwolves fans plenty to talk about since his Slam Dunk Championship and apparently the Hall heard much of this talk.  Phil told me they had several inquires for a LaVine bobblehead and decided why not give fans what they want.  Click here to order a LaVine bobblehead!  It's a limited production run of only 144, so get them while you can.  I believe they'll be shipping at some point in July.  Stay tuned for more cool bobbleheads the Hall will be producing.

Now, a little more about the Hall itself...Phil and a buddy of his started this venture about 2 years ago.  They had a vision of creating a bobblehead paradise.  They've made great strides but there is still work to be done.  Eventually the Hall will be located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  It'll house the world's largest collection of bobbleheads and will host several special events and exhibits during the year.  Check out the first link of the blog to learn more about the Hall.

Below are a couple images of the LaVine bobblehead that Phil shared with me.

National Bobblehead Day!

It's National Bobblehead Day.  Yes, its a real thing.  Even Forbes has an article about it today!  It's sponsored by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame.  Click here to learn more and/or donate to their Kickstarter campaign.

Check out Twitter for all kinds of bobblehead pictures.  Teams are doing special promotions and giveaways too.  It's fun to see all the different bobbleheads out there.  Pretty cool day if you are a bobblehead fan.  Keep checking Twitter and other social media for more pictures during the day.  I'm sure people will be posting them all day long.

Here's the bobblehead that got it started for me...my first Goldy...the cause of my passion.
