One of the latest additions to my collection - a Paul Allen bobblehead from Canterbury Park.  This is the second edition of a PA bobblehead from Canterbury.  Given the Vikings 3-0 start to the season I figured now was a great time to post this, even tho Adrian Peterson has been lost for the season and we won't hear PA famously say "AP is Loose!" - as long as you have this bobblehead, you can hear it whenever you want.  (AP is Loose is also the name of a horse at Canterbury) 

Paul Allen Bobblehead - Canterbury Park

Sunday the 21st of August is Minnesota Festival of Champions Day at Canterbury Park.  It'll feature 8 races with $600,000 in purse money up for grabs.  Canterbury Park is also giving away a Paul Allen talking bobblehead!  Obviously most of my readers will know what Canterbury Park is and who Paul Allen is.  If you don't, click the links. This will be PA's second Canterbury Park bobblehead.  A unique twist on this one is, its a talking bobblehead.  The first 4000 paid attendees will get the bobble and will be able to hear PA make his legendary call of "AP is Loose!"  You might think the audio is in reference to Vikings stud running back Adrian Peterson, but "AP is Loose" is also the name of a horse at Canterbury Park and is expected to run on August 21st!

I'm sure you'll hear PA make his iconic call this fall, but now you can hear it whenever you want - IF you get the bobblehead!  It's a great bobblehead and I can't wait to add it to my collection!!

Canterbury Park - Pete bobblehead

This is a bobblehead of Pete...I'm guessing a former announcer at Canterbury Park in Shakopee.  My Jackson, MN math tells me the microphone in his hand must mean he's an announcer of some sort. Unfortunately, I don't know much beyond that.  Cool bobblehead tho and fits my collection quite nicely!
