IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING WRISTBANDS FOR AUTOGRAPHS**
SoxFest 2010 - Autograph Session Wristband Policy

To assist with crowd flow at SoxFest, colored wristbands will be utilized for each autograph session (a different color for every session).
The number of wristbands for each session will correspond with the number of autographs listed in the program for each session.
Wristbands will be issued at each autograph booth on a first-come, first-serve basis for each session.
Wristband distribution for future autograph sessions will begin when the line for the preceding session has reached capacity.
To enable the greatest number of SoxFest guests the opportunity to obtain an autograph, only one wristband may be obtained per guest at any one time. Multiple wristbands will not be issued to any one guest.
Guests with more than one wristband at one time will be denied autograph privileges and all wristbands will be removed by a White Sox representative.
Once a guest receives a wristband, he/she may not obtain a wristband for an additional session until they have received an autograph from the current session and a White Sox representative has removed their wristband.
Wristbands will be removed by a White Sox representative upon arrival at the specific autograph booth. Guests are welcome to try for another wristband for a different autograph session once the first band is removed by a staff member.
The correct colored wristband will be needed in order to access an autograph line.
Guests with a wristband for any particular session must be in line no later than 30 minutes after the start time of the autograph session to be guaranteed an autograph.
The transferring of wristbands, along with line jumping will result in loss of all autograph privileges.

Thank you for your cooperation!

The White Sox reserve the right to amend these procedures as deemed necessary.
