Old beer can, Comisky Park 80 years...

Just found this which I'd forgotten about. It's pretty cool!



Dang thing is still completely full too! Don't think I wanna crack and taste that swill after 31 years or so. lol

Not sure what to do with it. Saw one auctioned at that worthpoint site but not about to sign-up there just to see prices etc. :)

    Oh, c'mon, where's you sense of adventure?

    We can make a day of it. Start off with breakfast.

    Your choice. With the Wheaties we have a cool retro game sampler we can throw into a Wndows 98 computer. Or with the Sugar Crisp a Gretzky card to fight over. Or we have both, play the sampler disc and whoever gets the highest score gets the Gretzky card.

    Lunch will be these 30 year old chips. Crack that beer open, sit down and enjoy these tasty treats.

    Now I need to go and find that Mark McGwire energy bar I got kicking around here somewhere and have that for supper with some old Coke to wash it down.

    Would make for a good Youtube video. :D

    I'm still saddened that Jerry Reinsdorf caused Comiskey to end up forever lost rather than preserved and treasured like Wrigley was. But no, he just had to throw a tantrum and threaten to take his ball (club) and move to Tampa. :P

    Here's an old Coke bottle from around 1904. Did not taste good.

    I found my old cokes too! Can add these to the buffet!

    How about a White Sox Clorox bleach beach towel to clean up the mess?

    I agree with Estil. Old Comiskey Park was awesome. their new place sucks.

    On Wheaties boxes. When I got up to like 30 or so, I decided to open and flatten since I realized I wasn't going to display them.

    Except this one since it was shrink wrapped at the factory - I think this was around 1994?

    Digging and found the energy bars. MMMmmm,mmmmmm!!!!! 2 peanut butter and 2 chocolate chip.

    And I'd offer these up as well but I destroyed these years ago. They were VERY tasty.
