🎯 Don't Sleep On...
-
Mets (Sat 6/13): The Hello Kitty® Bobblehead. Sanrio crossover bobbles draw an audience that doesn't usually show up to the ballpark. Citi Field will be packed and the bobblehead will be gone by mid-second inning. Gates early.
-
Mets (Sun 6/14): The Crayola Color Your Own Mrs. Met Bobblehead. A DIY paint-your-own bobble is a different kind of collectible — every one ends up unique. A genuinely fun follow-up to Saturday's Hello Kitty madness.
-
Braves (Tue 6/16): Ronald Acuña Jr. Home Run Tracker Bobblehead. A Tuesday bobble at Truist Park means a thinner crowd and a real shot at one of the more creative Acuña pieces in circulation. The HR tracker mechanism makes it a talking-piece bobble.
-
Pirates (Fri & Sat 6/12–13): Bucco Luau Weekend is two giveaway nights — Tiki Mug Friday, Hawaiian Shirt Saturday. Doing both gives you a matched themed pair. PNC Park in mid-June is one of baseball's best evening views.
-
Diamondbacks (Tue 6/16): Hello Kitty Bobble Pack — a multi-figure boxed set, special event ticketing required. Less common than a single bobble and tends to become a shelf centerpiece for collectors.
👀 Looking Ahead
- Father's Day weekend (June 19–21). Eight ranked MLB picks, 13 MiLB hidden gems — see the Father's Day Guide for the full breakdown.
- Friday June 19 brings two of the biggest bobbleheads of the summer: Jacob deGrom City Connect at Globe Life Field and Mookie Betts "Game 7 Double Play" at Dodger Stadium.
- Saturday June 20: Aaron Judge MVP Bobblehead at Yankee Stadium, plus a Shaquille O'Neal bobble at Dodger Stadium. Yes, that Shaq.
All giveaways are subject to availability and typically first-come, first-served. Arrive early.
