Next New Year's Eve, Ken Griffey Jr. likely will be days away from being voted into the Hall of Fame — it will be his first year on the ballot.

So what did Junior do this New Year's Eve?

During the day he took in his son's college football game in Glendale, Ariz.

Griffey's son, Trey, is a wide receiver for the 10th-ranked Arizona Wildcats. On Wednesday, Trey pulled in six catches for 66 yards in a 38-30 loss to the Boise State Broncos in the Fiesta Bowl. ...

... and his father was on the sideline, playing photographer with what seemed to be a top-of-the-line camera.

It's not the first time Griffey — sixth on MLB's all-time homer list (630) and 15th in RBI (1,836) — has been seen playing photographer on a football sideline during a national televised game. He snapped photos at a "Monday Night Football" game in Green Bay on Dec. 8.
