Hoping for a chance to meet your beloved Kentucky Wildcats? That opportunity is now here, as the La Familia Autograph Tour is set to take place this week, with members of the upcoming 2023-24 roster traveling to Krogers around the state to hang out with Big Blue Nation.

The autograph tour is scheduled for July 28-30 with eight Wildcats split among two Kroger locations each day. Things will get rolling on Friday in Somerset with Aaron Bradshaw, Reed Sheppard, Jordan Burks and Grant Darbyshire at the Stonegate Center location from 4-6 PM ET while Justin Edwards, Adou Thiero, Tre Mitchell and Walker Horn are in Morehead at the Trademore Center location at the same time (4-6 PM).

And then on Saturday, Edwards, Thiero, Mitchell and Horn will be in Louisville at the Brownsboro Road location from 10 AM-12 PM ET, while Bradshaw, Sheppard, Burks and Darbyshire will be in Shelbyville at the Boone Station location, also at the same time.

To close out the tour, Edwards, Mitchell and Horn will be in Lexington at the Beaumont Centre location from 2-4 PM ET, while Bradshaw, Sheppard, Burks and Darbyshire will be at the Versailles Kroger — shoutout Freddie Maggard — also from 2-4 PM.

Eight Wildcats, six stops, three days.

What should you expect when you arrive? Tickets are available at the door for $60 each, which will get each person one item to be signed by all present players, one ticket per person. The neat part of the event? A portion of net proceeds and all sponsor proceeds will benefit the Mayfield Flood Relief Mission.
