Hank Aaron's Bat Chair — The Louisville Slugger Museum and Bat Factory

SUPERFAN became a SUPERFAN of Louisville, KY. I have been active as SUPERFAN. I have been to see my Los Angeles Dodgers open the season and I am planning another Dodger Adventure in August.

For SUPERFAN, visiting the Louisville Slugger Museum and Factory was like visiting another Baseball Mecca! This visit brought back memories of when my Dad and Mom took our family to THE MECCA, The Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown NY, when I was 13 years old. Wearing batting gloves, I held a bats used by Babe Ruth and other Hall of Famers in the "Vault", and I held bats used in games by Cody Bellinger and Justin Turner. I cast a magic SUPERFAN KARMA spell on wood that will be used to make Cody Bellinger's bats. I put a different spell on one of the newly made Evan Longoria (Boo Giants) bats.

The World's Largest Baseball Bat is 120 ft. tall and weighs 68,000 lbs.

Baseball Bat Chair — Henry Aaron's Throne

This Baseball Bat Throne was given to Hank Aaron celebrating his Hall of Fame Career using Louisville Slugger Bats. Zoom in on the pictures on the wall and you will see his wife looking at him as he his giving his acceptance speech. Her expression says, "You are not bringing that monstrosity home!" Shortly thereafter he gave another speech donating the chair back to the Louisville Slugger Museum, "so that baseball fans can always enjoy this gift!"

Cody Bellinger's Bat used in a game this year!

We totally geeked out baseball for 3 hours!

Baseball Evan Longoria San Francisco Giants — Evan Longoria Bat being made

This is the main Bat Making Machine! A cool guy, Kelly is one of the main operators and he allowed me to hold one of Evan Longoria's Bat. When he uses this bat against my Dodgers, he will strike out!

Now this nice piece of Maple will go to make a Cody Bellinger Bat. The Magic Karma Spell I placed on this wood will result in HOME RUNS!

The Hillerich family of Hillerich & Bradsby still are very much hands-on in the manufacturing of Major League Baseball bats. When gushing to a shop owner about my experience that day, I discovered I was talking to Lisa Hillerich, whose husband I had seen conducting business. I was also moved by the Mohammed Ali Museum. My SUPERFAN mission of spreading love was SUPERCHARGED!
