“Part of the fun of the Bobblection™ is that our fans typically get to go into a makeshift voting booth and cast their ballots for President”, said Steve Gliner, President / General Manager of the Hudson Valley Renegades. “This year has been extremely challenging during the pandemic without having a season, but we would be remiss not to continue the tradition of the Bobblection™ since it is a staple with the Renegades and recognized on a national level.”
