Contest Time !!

Quik was the winner !!!

Thanks for everyone who participated


I've been sitting here tonight watching my Mets game and posting scans of some of the sport items i've accumulated over the years on the
" What is the favorite piece of memorabilia " thread.

As a collector my mind set is always geared on what can i obtain instead of what can i give

I started thinking about how blessed i really am in all aspects of my life and realized i don't give like i should

I had trouble thinking of a contest untill my wife came up with something. So if it sux blame her lol

Ok here goes. Next year will be my 10th wedding anniversary so the contest is pretty easy.

Guess the date . . . . It's obviously not any of the months left in this year so that makes it a little easier image

Each member can guess 3 times and the first to nail it can choose 2 of the 3 autos. I know it's not much but heck it's better than nothing lol
If nobody guesses by lets say friday night at this time i'll have to come up with a better contest

This Feller auto is in a case, thats where the light scratches are from not the card

Good luck !!

    Great idea! I think that we should all stop once in a while and count our blessings instead of just counting our cards (although I have to admit that in my mind there is some crossover image).

    Here are my guesses:

    6/12, 7/18, and 7/25

    Thanks for the contest and happy anniversary whenever it is!

    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
