Trick or Cleat Response #5 (Padres) *Update*
*Don’t know what “Trick or Cleat” is? Want to read more about it? Then head on over to the Oddball section of this blog.*
*Want to refresh your mind on what I am “Updating”? Then check out their initial response.*
I got all giddy reading this:
-
“Dear David,
In light of your curious quest, I would be happy to supply something
that would certainly qualify as “something above and beyond” a Fan Pack.
Please respond with your shipping address and your package will be in
the mail shortly.
Chris Tran
Corporate Communications”
Now tell me that ain’t something. They brought in another whole department to deal with me. =) Can’t wait till it arrives… Go Padres! =)
However, I have the eerie suspicion that I will be getting a big box from the Padres that will contain something like a single, individual M&M. A treat that will act as quite the trick…
Anyhow, I shot Chris back an email, here it is:
-
“Dear Chris,
Thank you for your timely and enjoyable reply.
My shipping address is:
*My Name*
*My Address*
I will eagerly await the package.
Thanks again,
~David Macomber”
This makes me rethink the whole not defining the fact I am doing this as a continous blog update in my emails to ALL the teams. I don’t think that would have really changed anything though, but who knows?
Well, my fingers are crossed; feel free to cross yours for me as well. =)

This is a great campaign you’re running here. I’m not a big Baseball fan at all. But, kudos on thinking this one up. That’s really cool! They’ll do anything to get some extra publicity.
Maybe one day you’ll get your very own Free Agent in the mail. That’d be fun.

I really hope that its not a single piece of candy or some note with the single word TRICK printed on it. Good luck!

I am hoping neither of those things happen as well. I am still waiting for whatever it is to arrive, and will be sure to post what it is up here as soon as possible. Thanks for luck, normally I need it. =)
