    Default Training Camp Visit

    I am thinking about traveling 10 hours to training camp. Has anyone ever gone? is it worth it? what are the chances for autographs?

    The 49ers own my heart, but the Chiefs will always hold a better than neutral spot for giving my favorite player a place to leave with grace...

    I went two years ago, in '06. Autographs are very easy to get there. After almost every practice session, a specific group of players is assigned to sign autographs for a little while.

    And on family night, all present players are available for an autograph, (a bit of crowd fighting) before the practices begin.

    Photo opps are unlimited too.

    Here is the summer camp schedule:

    2008 CHIEFS TRAINING CAMP
    Date - Event
    Thursday, July 24 - Depart for Training Camp - River Falls, WI
    Friday, July 25 - Begin Training Camp - River Falls, WI
    Thursday, July 31 - Practice with Minnesota Vikings - River Falls, WI (TBA)

    This may be a stupid question, but do the players go home on the weekends? Do they practice on the weekends?

    I have taken my son in the past and it was very easy to get autographs. It was a fun time, but only 4 hours away for me.
