I work at a Casino in Indiana as a Manager. So as part of my job duties I occasionally walk the floor and talk to patrons. I was making my rounds to the different table games when I came to the craps table and began talking to some of the regulars when I notice someone who looks too familiar.................................................it's Robert Van Winkle a.k.a Vanilla Ice!!!!!!! I know.....I know he was horrible back in the day but he is a pretty cool guy! I must have talked to him for 20 mins, as I was getting ready to leave I grabbed a bag tag from the cage and asked for an auto he could have told me to get lost but he said sure! This is why I love my job, I get to meet a lot of cool people!

That's terrific Justin... I have a friend who used to work for VH1 who met Vanilla Ice (well after his hey day) and said he was just the nicest, most polite guy....

Thanks for sharing!

"Baseball players will take anything. If you had a pill that would guarantee a pitcher 20 wins but might take five years off his life, he'd take it" MLB pitcher Jim Bouton about drug use in the Major Leagues... quoted in 1969.

I vow to no longer purchase any product that features sticker autographs...
If your user name is this color I'm afraid I'll have to pass on any proposed transactions at this time.

He was a class act, he just performed again after the Rays game, I guess he is a huge david price fan. He sang Price Price Baby, on the day they gave out D-Price shirts

Very cool story. Good for you man, that must have been neat!

I also have heard he is very nice to his fans. My friend used to work security at a large arena and Vanilla Ice played there once during the height of his career. He got to meet him and said he shook all the staffs hands, asked their names, and thanked them personally.

Very cool! He didn't say "ice ice baby when he rolled the dice" or when he hit his number "to cold" did he???

PS I love going to the Casino! I lived off of them for about 7-8 months playing blackjack! I didn't get rich, but about $100 a night. I would win 4-5 times I went! They bought me a lot of Edgerrin cards!

But I hit a bad run and they took me 4-5 times in a row so I just quit while I was still way up on them!

Always looking for Edgerrin James and Javarris James cards I need!

**MY WANTS**
-2007 topps tx superbowl ticket stub auto versions only. Base set of stubs is done!
-2001-2006 topps tix super tix superbowl ticket stub cards and auto version.
-Colts Super Bowl tickets from any Super Bowl they played in. Prefer full tickets but would be open to stubs as well. Only tickets from the Manning ERA!
-A Super Bowl ticket or stub from the AZ Cardinals and Steelers.
-Any full ticket or stub that has Edgerrin James on it!
-Edgerrin James- Mostly rarer stuff. Also odd ball type items.
-Javarris James- Mostly rarer stuff. Also odd ball type items.
-Any checklist that has Edgerrin or Javarris James name on it!
-Any cards of the actors from Married With Children.
-Ice-T auto- From Razor.
-Some of the Celebrity GU and autos. Mostly famous movie actors I like. Nothing super high end.

leaving while you are ahead is the key to casino success! But how many people do you think follow that rule
