Braves to host 'Chipper rescues Freddie' ATV bobblehead day
If you're a hardcore bobblehead collector, you better be at Turner Field on May 28 when the Atlanta Braves host the Miami Marlins.
The first 20,000 fans in attendance will be presented with a Chipper Jones and Freddie Freeman "Chipper Rescues Freddie" ATV bobblehead.
Braves fans may recall an incident two years ago when Jones hopped onto his ATV, and saved a stranded Freeman during a rare Atlanta snowstorm.
They made it home safe and sound! #thankful @RealCJ10 @FreddieFreeman5 pic.twitter.com/KBO59VL1HU

It's unclear at this point what the bobblehead will look like, but it's sure to be hilarious.
Jones, who retired after the 2012 season, is now a special assistant with the organization, Freeman, of course, will man first base for Atlanta, which could be in for a long season as the organization enters a rebuilding phase.
