    I've been a huge fan of the A's all my life, and this week got me particularly fired up. What an awesome ending to the year.

    Anyway, I'm tossing out two Fremont Brewing Cowiche Canyon Fresh Hop bombers to the first person who can answer these questions...as a few may attest, I also have an affinity for extras.

    1: who is my all time favorite Athletic.
    2. What city did I grow up in.
    3. Who is my best friends favorite Athletic.
    4. Who's first at bat, did both my friend and I get to witness?

    Don't care where yer from, you're eligible. It probably goes without saying but if you've had Cowiche, don't be that douche.

    One guess per day.

    As for question four, there's probably 1,000 right answers. I'm looking for one in particular.

    I forgot, go A's! I wish I was in the Bleachers yesterday. I would have been acting like an idiot out there with the rest of rowdies.

    I grew up in the bay during the bash brothers era. Mid 30s now.

    I could rattle off 80's-90's A's for days.

    Old Dave Parker? Hendu? Joe "The Colonel" Klink? Gil Heredia?

    Dude...the Billy Ripkin "F*ck Face" card?? Classic. That bad boy is floating around in a plastic card holder somewhere in my parents' basement. I'll pass that one down to my own son one day :wink:

    No one has got one right yet, though a name has been mentioned that is right. The answer to number four is a non-a's player.
