No this isn't a late April Fool's joke. On a whim, Rickey called in to WFAN today and scored himself a pair of tickets to a breakfast with Yankees manager Joe Girardi at the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square tomorrow morning. The omnipotent ogre Mike Francessa will be moderating the event. Yeah, we have no idea how or why this happened either. Everyone always says this, but this was the first time Rickey has ever called in for a radio contest. In all honesty, Rickey thought he was calling in for Mets tickets. But we suppose that Rickey will just have to make the best of the situation.
Here's the fun part: the event allows people attending to ask questions of Joe Girardi. So we're opening this up for suggestions. What questions should Rickey pose to the Yankees skipper? Leave your suggestions in the comments section. Make 'em good. Make 'em funny. We'll be back on Monday with photos of the event and a recap of the madness.

I don't know who that is. But congratulations!
I'll see you there i also won tickets today!someone just called me back to give me info on where to go.i say you crusify him and mike up there
question for Mike: how many tatoos of mad dog do you have and where are they?
question for Joe: while he was playing for the yanks, did he ever suspect anyone on the team was taking steriods? If so, whom?
Dan: see you there buddy. Rickey will be the skinny white dude wearing glasses. Also, the only person not a wearing a Joba jersey.
Have fun. Ask him:
Why are the Mets so much more likeable than the Yanks?
Do fans in Florida still call you "The Maker of Arm Owies"?
How much longer can an ever less agile Jeter play shortstop?
Ask him for Mets tickets.
Ask Joe if he brought your playing contract with him (have pen in hand).
Although I have bought my tickets to see you get inducted in July, I would gladly put that off to see you in pin stripes again.
Boxers or briefs?
I don't care what you ask, so long as you get his attention by holding up a big placard with a question mark on it.
