I only live 3 1/2 hrs away from Cooperstown and been there about 15 times since 1999. I really want to move there one day. I got to know some of the locals including Homer Osterhoudt who was at the very first induction in 1939 and even help lay brick for the HOF itself!!! he was born in 1918 and still going strong. Google him to find stories. Anyway I have never been to an induction but have been to the Hall of Fame game and the Cooperstown Classic as it is called now. You might be lucky to get an auto for free along the street or by the golf course when they are playing. Other than that be ready to pay for an auto on Main street either outside the shops or inside. I remember paying $20 for Fergie Jenkins and $20 for Johnny Podres back in 2007 which is fair, some guys prices though are pretty high.
