I haven't had time to post in a few days so this may be a little long, but here it goes....
Thursday:
Pete Burnside - 2/1 (21 days)
1945 Chestnut
Wilmette, IL 60091
C.J. Nitkowski - 2/0
^I had been e-mailing him for a couple months since he was playing over in Japan, and he told me that he did not have a box over there to send auto requests to, but he would send me a couple of cards when he got back in the states - so I recieved one of his Japanese cards & a Yankees card that one of his friends at Topps made that wasn't ever released. No Rangers card unfortunately, but maybe I will be able to come across one eventually.
Friday:
My wife and I went to the Hard Rock Casino to see Darius Rucker and he put on an awesome show. We had seen him once earlier in the year when he was touring w/ Brad Paisley and this time we managed to get up on the front row. Halfway through his set he saw me holding my 8x10 photos and told me he would get one for me after he was **** playing. After his encore, he came over and grabbed one of my photos and signed 1/2 for me. Nice pickup from the former Hootie & The Blowfish singer!
Saturday:
Here is the big news, I got a job with the Mississippi Surge hockey team selling merchandise during games. It's not a huge job, but it is a foot in the door that can hopefully turn into something else over time. We went to the game last night and I ended up getting the entire team on some customs cards that Bill made me and also got the last two on my program that I needed too! Here is what I came away with:
Steffon Walby - 2/2
Ryan Senft - 3/3
Michael Richard - 4/4
Matt Zultek - 4/4
Matthew Larke - 3/3
Chris Greene - 2/2
Greg McCauley - 2/2
Andrew Boudreau - 4/4
Stephen Scofield - 2/2
Daryl Moor - 3/3
Jack Wolgemuth - 2/2
Jeff Bieber - 2/2
Nick Klaren - 3/3
Ryan Bartle - 2/2
Tom Boudreau - 4/4
Chris Ferazzoli - 2/2
Bill Zaniboni - 2/2
Steve Weidlich - 3/3
