I bet that bulge is significantly smaller these days after all those roids

It says go play. Vilas is a Hindu name and it's meaning is play.

Okay, so you think it isn't a "60" but it is "GO" afterall.... as to Vilas being a Hindu name and it's meaning is play, can you help me confirm this? Google isn't helping

 

[JEBJJA]

Another meaning I looked up is charming or delightful....It can be "60 Charming" (years)....I just don't think is says "Go"

Hmmm I have no idea! I'm sure Albert Belle is a pretty smart guy but part of me has a tough time thinking he couldn't think of anything to write on the card, so he looked up the meaning of a Hindu, spanish, etc. word to use lol

I'm leaning toward the first part being "60" and NOT "GO"

I just googled what does the word vilas mean and it came up with a baby name site that said it was Hindu for play.

So what is the final decision?

So what is the final decision?

Doesn't seem like we've come to a clear conclusion as to the actual meaning. It can't be Hindu for play lol and although it could be "60 strong", no one had evidenced "vilas" meaning "strong" or this could be the winner.

I'll review throughout the weekend and if nothing surfaces, I'll award one or two people based upon submissions on Sunday, which happens to be my birthday

Thanks for everyone's help... Again, I am leaning toward it being a "60" and not "GO" to start his inscription

 

[JEBJJA]

So how was your birthday?

I tweeted the image to Albert to ask for a translation. I'll let you know if he responds.

Is he on twitter? If so, that's a great idea!

Edited because I think I should.

So he replied...

Make sure you expand the conversation.

Make sure you expand the conversation.

You are aware that isn't actually the real Albert Belle, right?

 

[BunchOBull]

You are aware that isn't actually the real Albert Belle, right?

I don't know if it is or not, the way he spoke makes me think not. It was worth a try though.

 

[JEBJJA]

So it wasn't Belle on Twitter?

 

[MansGame]

You are aware that isn't actually the real Albert Belle, right?

I didn't think it was him...

 

[BunchOBull]

So it wasn't Belle on Twitter?

No, I wouldn't think so. He came back right away asking if it was a joke and talking about being high. I was surprised that someone can pose as a professional athlete without issue though. Frank Thomas has a twitter account, it's legitimately him, and he'll answer fan questions. I was hoping the same for Belle...it took a quick detour.

 

[JEBJJA]

So what is the final decision(s)?
