Not 100% sure if this goes here or not. Anyway I go gambling alot. I got to the Casino about 10 times a year. Most of the time to Bossier LA since the host I talk to his real cool. Some ppl might know who he is since he played pro ball and has a superbowl ring. His name is Gary "Big Hands" Johnson. Back to the story, The Casino had a Comp shopping spree a few weeks ago when I went. For some that don't know what I am taking about...Casino give out players cards to anyone that wants them to track how much ppl play in return the card build up credit from playing. This thing had all kinds of stuff TV's, Games, computers, and so on. It had like 20 different local stores set up with the top sell stuff. One of the set up was Sports and Entertainment Memorabilia. He had a Joe Dimaggio auto baseball I started to talk to the guy about and he said some one just got it from him sad.gif and didn't have time to take in off the table yet. All stuff you get had to be shipped to you since alot of it was displays. Later that night I was told Gary about it. He know that I collect sports and entertainment memorabilia and like always he says I'll see what I can do. About a week ago this shows up in the mail

Along with some of the plagues that I got form the guy at the table. So I am guess Gary went in there before they let ppl in told the guy to save it for me. biggrin.gif

Nice ball but I would try to get a vintage card instead of that common one. It will make the display more jaw-dropping.
