Inside Dick’s Sporting Goods in Cerritos Monday evening, Dodgers pitcher Walker Buehler was scheduled to greet fans—but only if they were lucky enough to get a wristband.
Video from Sky5 captured the early morning line outside the store, where fans waited eagerly for wristbands to meet the World Series hero.

Some, like Juan Hernandez, wanted to pass along a message to the impending free agent.
“I want to say we need you, stay with us, don’t go nowhere,” Hernandez, a Dodgers fan who got a wristband, said.
While Hernandez got lucky, other fans struck out, including Brian Angel, who has Buehler’s name on his license plates.
“I’m good friends with his dad, have everything you could imagine signed by him. Arguably his biggest fan,” Angel said.
