Used Dodger Bib

So I have a not so subtle plan. Living amidst all these Giants fans, I want to create as many new Dodger fans as possible. Therefore, I need to start young. Being that I have kids, I know you can dress them anyway you want and maybe, just maybe you can get blue to be their favorite color, and then hopefully they will like the Dodgers as they grow up.

It’s a stretch, but considering all you see in the stores is Giants and A’s stuff…I’ll take it.

I consider this picture a victory.  I have started giving all of my Giant fan friends who have babies Dodger bibs.  It is a “cute” way to give them something Dodger blue that they can’t really refuse.  It works quite well too because they kind of like getting it filthy dirty, while in turn I get their child to wear Dodger gear.

This picture is from a friend who once warned me that if I gave her son Dodger gear that she would throw it away.  (She actually said something far worse, but I can’t write it here.)  So, I gave her a bib and told her to at least use it, get it dirty and then take a picture of it.  Of course, I didn’t get her son actually “wearing” it, but at least it looks used.  Given that kids continue to make bibs dirty, I think there’s actually a pretty good chance that this bib will get re-washed and then re-used. 

My not so subtle plot is working….one child at a time.
