Thanks to a tip from a user on Topps, you can get free fanpacks with a request via email.
I sent away for the Dodgers and recieved cards, 2008 Calander, scheduele and a Dodger magazine.
Liking free stuff I emailed 30+ other teams.
So far the Padres say they need $20, a few teams had my email sent back unavailable and one team wasnt participating anymore. Unfortunately I didnt save the info on who doesnt participate anymore.
The Red Sox sent me this !!! dirt, pic and a Red Sox Nation braclet. I'll update my progress here.

you may also buy autos by The Soup Nazi!!

enjoy!
I also did this with football teams and had limited success. The Giants sent a team photo from Eli's rookie year, the Eagles sent a program from the first game in the new stadium and the Seahawks sent a nice lot of items.
Thanks for the heads up 1989FleerBillRipkencollector!

I sent to the Dodgers initially and made it a bit longer but realized some secretary probally didnt care to read the whole thing so I cut it short on the others. Im sure a longer letter whould help guarantee free stuff though.

Hmmm, I just perused through their 'celebrity list', and it's much more 'list' than 'celebrity'. I think I only knew 2 or 3 of them, and two of those were Russell Johnson (The Professor from 'Gilligan's Island') and Butch Patrick (Eddie Munster).

Thank you for writing the San Diego Padres, expressing an interest in receiving an Official Padres Fan Pack. The club is delighted to have such a widespread fan base as we continue to receive thousands of requests like yours from fans nearby, across the nation and around the world.
We would be happy to send you an Official Padres Fan Pack. In return, we ask that you consider making a $20.00 donation to The Padres Foundation for Children for each fan pack requested. (Processing and handling are both included in the $20.00.) Each pack contains a number of great promotional items and additional information about the club.
To receive a Fan Pack, please send a check or money order made payable to The Padres Foundation for Children, along with mailing address to:
San Diego Padres
Attn: Official Padres Fan Pack
100 Park Boulevard
San Diego, California 92101
An important component of Padres’ baseball is a long-standing commitment to community philanthropy. In 1995, owner John Moores established The Padres Foundation, the organization’s charitable arm. The Foundation continues to meet the needs of children with specific emphases on education, recreation and health.
The funds received from all Fan Pack donations directly benefit the Padres Scholars Program (education), the Little Padres Parks Program (recreation), and a variety of children’s health, fitness and nutrition initiatives.
The Padres Foundation falls under the umbrella of The San Diego Foundation, a not-for-profit organization.
Thanks again for your interest in the Padres.
Sincerely,
Tim Katzman

Little magazine and a 5X7 high quality photo on very thin stock

It features Stosh, who is a polish sausage, which fans usually can “Polish.” At the bottom of the sixth inning at every home game of the Brewers the “Sausage Race” is held, a promotion for the Klement’s Sausage Company. There are five racing mascot sausages.

Received posters, stickers, pictures, autographs, cards, bobbleheads, shirts, hats, rally towels, wristbands, balls, pucks, and a ton of game program and media guides ... I had to take one year off just to get rid of half the junk I had.
Kids loved it.
Some colleges would actually send large BOXES of T-shirts. Pretty cool stuff.
Lots of the colleges sent autos of their head coaches. Most were personalized.
If you're interested, I'll post a few pics.
