Had a great time!

Was awesome to meet a few new faces and also get to help matt do some breaking.

Had a great meal at Gibsons with Gilmo, Bouwob and Dan from the boards! Hope the National is as crazy as I think it will be!

Going to just show the cool stuff

The threads is numbered to 25 and was given to me by Gilmore. He is under obligation that any ryan he pulls automatically goes into my pile. Thanks gilmore for the great card.

I also added 20 or so cards I needed that most of you guys likely would not care about and I am not going to scan at this time.

Brian Gray also gave me a southland plastics ryan autographed statue that looks real nice. Thank you brian for hooking me up ;:

I'm glad I made it to the show. I was able to add 3 HOFers (Eddie Murray, Ozzie Smith, and Andre Dawson) to the signed ball collection which brings my total to just short of 80. I dug through countless boxes looking for Alan Trammell and Jack Morris autos to add to my collection and unfortunately only found 1 card I needed, a Jack Morris 2005 Throwback Threads Century Stars Patch/Auto #/5 that Morris inscribed with "BYU". Also found some Chrome autos of Kyle Gibson, Daniel Fields, and Nick Franklin at decent prices. And while digging through all those boxes, I found a Blue Refractor auto of Tyler Matzek marked down from $15 to $10. Will do some scanning of the haul tonight. Everything but the Matzek as that was traded to cgilmo.

It was a good show on all accounts. And it was good to meet some of the FCB crowd.
