Trump and Hillary face off at Bobblection 2016 event

The Charleston Riverdogs hosted Bobblection 2016 Trumpon Tuesday.

As we’d have predicted, fans turned out early to line up to “vote” for Trump. In fact, as the line for the Trump bobblehead grew longer, representatives informed the crowd that they could proceed directly to the front if they wanted a Hillary bobblehead. The line didn’t move. At all.

I’m actually quite fond of these bobbleheads; I think they make great novelty items and could be fantastic gifts. I came across Personalized BobbleHeads Dolls recently that you can order to be made to match custom designs that perhaps mimic real people in your life. Imagine handing them a bobblehead of themselves as a bit of a tongue-in-cheek gift! It’s lighthearted and they’ll love it. You don’t have to get a political-themed one if, like most people, you’re a little fed up with it all!

In the end, according to the Charleston Riverdogs Twitter account, Trump won Bobblection 2016 with 62 – 37%.

Honestly, we expected a much bigger landslide. But then we realized the promotion involves seven other minor league ball teams: Fort Myers Miracle, Lincoln Salt Dogs, St. Paul Saints, Hudson Valley Renegades, Mahoning Valley Scrappers, Lakewood Blue Claws and the Hickory Crawdads.

Keep an eye on our Instagram account in the near future.

We have some big plans for Mr. Trump.Bobblection 2016
