As Dodgers Fans Line Up for New Shohei Ohtani Bobblehead, Some Might Leave Empty-Handed

Fans began lining the sidewalk early Wednesday morning to wait in line for hours to get their hands on a free bobblehead. It isn’t just any bobblehead — this one features Shohei Ohtani and his dog, Decoy.

While some might have purchased their tickets ahead of time, there is no guarantee everyone will receive their bobblehead.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have 40,000 bobbleheads to give away and have sold more than 53,000 tickets for the game against the Baltimore Orioles.

Dodgers president Stan Kasten told Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times that corporate sponsors cover the cost of most giveaways but might not have the budget for 53,000 promotional items.
