Christmas Giveaway (2 star 1993 Refractors)!!! WINNER ANNOUNCED!!!!!!!

Hi all,

all the recent talk about graduation got me nostalgic. That said, this is a giveaway for 2 FREE raw 1993 Refractors: Eddie Murray and Joe Carter. Both are in nm-mt to mt condition (probably PSA 9). Their total raw value on eBay is $60-80 and their total PSA 9 value is $100-120.

The first to correctly answer these 2 questions about my medical school, 1 question about my undergraduate graduation, and 1 question about my collecting habits will receive them BOTH from me. Here goes:

1.) What specialty did I match into (easy one to start)?
2.) In my graduating class of 88 students, where did I rank numerically (academically)?
3.) What was my graduating undergraduate g.p.a. (+/- 0.03)?
4.) Who is my favorite baseball player?

One vote per person, no edits.

Good luck!

    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

    1.) What specialty did I match into (easy one to start)?
    1993 Finest Refractors (I happen to be a fellow 1993-97 Finest fan myself! Not refractors of course but I'd love to get 1996 and 1997 Finest silver and gold sets someday!)

    2.) In my graduating class of 88 students, where did I rank numerically (academically)?
    1st

    3.) What was my graduating undergraduate g.p.a. (+/- 0.03)?
    4.00

    4.) Who is my favorite baseball player?
    Don Mattingly

    Long shot guesses I know but you never know if you don't try! I sure wouldn't mind owning a couple sample refractors from the greatest set of the 1990s! Well, in terms of hobby history and significance anyway. image

    What the heck - I'll "half" what I was going to send to nam and give you some too!

    Seriously, though -- sorry about missing out. I bumped this thing up an embarrassing amount over the past couple days. Guess you just missed it.

    I didn't really know it was a contest, I thought you were just giving out some refractor cards for free or something, without having a contest so I didn't click. I figured I wasen't interestead in those refractors, so I didn't click to see till now, because I saw a lot of posts, so I figured something was going on. That teaches me a lesson, click no matter what it looks like image
