I won a limited edition Matt Kemp Gold Glove Bobblehead off of Twitter from the Dodgers last Tuesday. Here's how it went down.

This is the second Twitter contest I've been fortunate enough to win this summer. The first was from MasterCard and netted me two tickets to a Dodgers/Phillies game, the Hiroki Kuroda near no-hitter.

The items just arrived yesterday, so I'll post some pics of the assorted goodies soon, I hope.

Thanks again to the Dodgers and @DodgertownUSA for all of their great fan interaction and giveaways.

    haha I know, I took a couple I'll put up in the next day or so. I intend to keep it wrapped up and boxed up in the hopes of getting Matt to sign it.

    Did they put it in the same box as the original version?

    Looks the same to me, just with a coupon for San Manuel in it.

    Granted, I have yet to open the regular Kemp Bobble haha, so maybe there was a coupon in those too.

    I only opened this one to check and make sure it wasn't broken, since the one Bob Timmermann received had the Golden Gloved hand broken off.
