Why don't the Angels have a fanfest?


mmc

Recommended Posts

We used to do these every year because they were fun and the Angels weren't doing them, so someone had to. 

Over the past 4-5 years though life got busy, some changes in our org took place and so we haven't done one since 2017 when we had Wally Joyner as a special guest. 

Here's one of our many though from 2008-2017, this one taking place in 2013.

I feel like the teams that have fanfests, or that we hear about having them, are teams that have had winning records over the past couple of seasons or have won a title recently. I have heard about Houston, Cubs, Doggies, and Oakland fanfests. I wonder if that’s what all the teams with fanfests have in common, a recent Track record of winning? Hence none for us. 🤷🏻‍♂️

There were no regular "Fanfests" even during the Golden Decade of the 00's for the Angels.  Its not a priority for Arte.

3 million fans. Arte once stated that he would host the biggest tailgate party ever and supply all of the hotdogs and sodas. He never did that either.

I think just about everyone has one. And the ones that don’t do a caravan, which is like a little traveling fanfest. 
 

When I covered the Giants and A’s they both had them every year. I think they’re great for fans.

Maybe a question directed to Eppler or Arte the next time they give you an opportunity for questions or feedback.
