Hedges Jersey Arrival Time

What time should we arrive to get a jersey? We have obligations until 1:00pm. Is 2:30pm too late?

I have a follow up question on this: are there jersey sizes this year besides XL?

I have a coworker who somehow got a free giveaway (not the ticket package ones) jersey sized M, and I'm insanely confused and also badly would love a jersey I'm not swimming in lol.

They have XL and M. I think you get XL at the gate, and you can swap it somewhere? I'm not sure how it works, but there is a M.

XL and M are both set up at the gate. I'm guessing if you need/want a medium just tell the person handing them out.

As far as I know they only do XL jerseys which sucks cause they are always huge on me

If you get there when gates open you can always have them scan your ticket and leave and go do something else until you actually want to arrive

An hour early and you’ll be fine. Usually the line starts forming around then and starts to get backed up the closer to gates opening

I arrived an hour early for the Manzolorian bobblehead give away and that was plenty of time. Actually, I saw that they still had some left at 4:45 (gates opened at 4). So you could probably get there when the gates open and you’ll still get one…but I wouldn’t risk it for a Hedgey jersey!

Gates open at 2 today. Show up then and you’ll be fine. You’ll likely be fine showing up an hour before the game starts but no way to know for sure.

If your day will be ruined if you don’t get a jersey then I’d show up as close to gate opening as possible. If it’s just a happy bonus then doesn’t really matter.

I thought it was 1.5 hours ahead on weekends?

I need to double check it all the time since I can't ever keep it straight but from https://www.mlb.com/guardians/ballpark/information/gate-times:

"Friday and Saturday games May 29 - August 29: All gates will open 2 hours prior to first pitch"

I showed up about 30 minutes before gates opened on memorial day for the blanket and the line was insane already, almost wrapped around the side of the building. That could be a special thing since it was a holiday, but just for reference. (I still got one and there were a fair amount left, for what it's worth.)
