A 13x All-Star, 5x World Series Champion, and World Series MVP; Mariano Rivera was the greatest relief pitcher of all time. Yes, that's my opinion. And, I'm a Mets fan. I have 100 per cent respect for the job Mariano did for the Yankees and the way he represented baseball, playing with heart and class. That's so rare, that mix of a great player and a great person. That's why it's exciting that he'll be coming to New Jersey to meet fans.
Save the date for October 23, 2021. The location will be The Legends Gallery at 257 Main Street in Chatham, New Jersey at noon. Here's how you can meet Mariano.
The Legends Gallery brings popular athletes into their facilities to meet fans and sign autographs. Past guests include Eli Mannin, Bill Parcells, Lawrence Taylor, Odell Beckham Jr, Noah Syndergaard, and many more. For the upcoming Mariano Rivera visit, you can purchase an advanced ticket here. Depending on what you want to be signed, the cost will be $300 or $400.
