And Twins! (The Twins talk and pick-up thread).

[TBTwinsFan]

I tweeted Ryan and he said he'd sign for me if he came.

I just wanted to see what the response was.

The Star Tribune parent company (Newport Archives) is selling old photos. Lots of sports-related stuff, Twins, Vikings, Millers, Lakers, etc., but also a lot of life in Minnesota type stuff. Very intersting to look through. Lots of unique phots. I think 18.77 is a little high, but these are pretty much one of a kind-type items. There's a couple of Gaetti photos I'm mulling over, but so many other cool ones too. Thought some of you would like to know.

Some of those would look really nice signed!

Perk is holding a contest on Twitter.

RT his tweet, and you have a chance to win a homemade (by him) serving tray, that he will autograph.

We are going to Sid's sale this weekend, but I'm kinda nervous on the prices.

I'd like to get one of his suits, or a tie.

What is Sid selling? He probably has some cool sports stuff

He's mainly cleaning out his closets, but it looks like he has some old reels of tape that look interesting. I think they are audio-only interviews.

Looks like he also has some Twins, Lakers, and Vikings banners.

That didn't copy well

Something I picked up at a closing retailer today, got these by happenstance, bought two, may go back for more.
They adjust to about 3 1/2 - 4 feet tall to the top.

 

[TBTwinsFan]

That turned out great.
