Long lines seen at Dodger Stadium for special edition Shohei Ohtani bobblehead

Long lines of excited fans waited outside Dodger Stadium on Wednesday for a chance to snag a special edition Shohei Ohtani Bobblehead.

The sought-after bobblehead features Ohtani smiling in his Dodgers uniform while holding his beloved dog named Decoy. Loyal fans of the baseball star lined up at the stadium hours before the gates opened, hoping to snag the coveted figurine before supplies ran out.

This is how the Angel fans should have treated the best player in the MLB!

These people are lucky. They saw Ohtani hit a home run and steal 2 bases tonight. On his way to 50/50.

"No one is worth $700 million"
This is why Ohtani is

[Rascallucci]

That is crazy flying all the way from Japan to line up for a Shohei bobblehead. LOL.😆

[kengvang]

People recognize greatness! Everybody wanna witness prime legendary greatness. Respect

[hungchoonghow]

I switched to baseball from soccer because of him.

[TheOtherKine]

Yeah. It was INSANE. I barely made it to get one, the entrance into the gates were completely disorganised and messed up, it was a mad rush near the end, took me 90 minutes even though I arrived at 4:50pm!!!!

Piece of baseball history in 20 years. The man is the greatest, stealing bases and balling homers.

[please-wake-up-now]

Lol, seeing all those fans for a bobblehead just shows how much love there is for Ohtani! 🙌 I mean, who wouldn’t wanna take a piece of baseball magic home? The dog part makes it even cuter! 🐾💙

It's already on Ebay for $200. Someone listed their golden bobblehead for $18k LOL.

[walterwine]

Dang, no wonder he bagged that 700M deal

[mwbwyatt]

and with this alone, he's shown WHY the dodgers were willing to drop over half a bill on him. dude's merchandising alone makes up for that. what other player in this day and age has lines like THIS?

[dannysunay]

Ohtani will be back stronger next year when he resumes his pitching! Blows my mind!❤❤❤❤

[watchtonystube]

That is cool. I’m a Cleveland fan and would wait all day for one of those 😂

GO TRIBE SEE YA NEXT WEEK!!

[mauryeetss]

Anyone who said he wasn’t worth 700m better not have shown up. Keep that same energy.

[johnchieze]

christ almighty. meanwhile the angels are having trouble giving away their tickets for free

[eric]

Yankees started giving out bobbleheads to every 5th person.

[dannynguyen]

Can’t wait till he is pitching next year

[krlm]

The first 40k is about to come up on the resale

[ZaBUSSAKILLEM]
