You have to be careful about graphing at the hotels. Some won't allow this, unless you are staying at the same hotel. If you don't know anyone who graphs there then it's not a bad idea to take your chances, just be prepared for security to tell you to leave the premises. Be polite if it happens.

I don't usually graph at the hotels. I normally graph at the visitor's entrance. Getting the home team as they are arriving can be tough, depending on how things are set up -- especially if they drive right into the ball park garage. For a 7-ish game, the players and coaches will usually start showing up around noon-ish. For an afternoon game they usually start showing up around nine or ten in the morning. But spring training is a different animal because sometimes they will have morning workouts prior to an evening game. Just get there as early as you can and observe things while you are graphing.

the best way to get sports autos is to find the visiting team's hotel. Ask around if you have connetions to other graphers in the area and you will most likely find out. you can go to the hotel before the game (like 7-9 hours before) because baseball player leave that early to go to the game. that is for a 5-9pm game though (the game starts somewhere in that range). if it is a 1pm game, be there for 7:30 am. going to the stadium pregame is also an option. you need to go to the vistors entrance at the same times i told you for the hotel. There is a low shot of nayone good inside the stadium pregame (or postgame) but normally try to get as close to the dugout as you can for pregame during bp to get guys. best bet though is pregame or visitors entrance.

I am going to the chicago white sox game against the rays and I am in section 112 in the lower level and I want to know if I have a good chance to get autographs and if not where should I walk to to get the visitors autographs and what time should I go to the game to have a good chance of getting autographs
