Repost from late last night for those who missed it:::



Hey guys, heard back from Topps today about the Babe Ruth memorabilia piece I pulled. Pretty pleased with the response and am going to hold onto this one!

Here is my email to them:

Hello,

I recently received a Babe Ruth Heroes of Sport memorabilia card in a pack of Topps Heritage Heroes.

I am confused as to whether this card contains a piece of wood cut from a bat that Babe Ruth used, or is it a piece of wood from a stadium?

If it is a piece of wood from a stadium, which stadium is it?

Thank you for your response,

Andrew Maben

Only a West Virginia man can make you feel like a woman.

A plane passed through a severe storm. The turbulence was awful, and things went from bad to worse when one wing was struck by lightning.

One woman lost it completely. She stood up in the front of the plane and screamed, "I'm too young to die," she cried. Then she yelled, "If I'm going to die, I want my last minutes on earth to be memorable! Is there anyone on this plane who can make me feel like a woman?"

For a moment, there was silence. Everyone stared at the desperate woman in the front of the plane. Then a man from West Virginia stood up in the rear of the plane.

He was handsome, tall, well built, with dark brown hair and hazel eyes. Slowly, he started to walk up the aisle, unbuttoning his shirt as he went, one button at a time. No one moved. He removed his shirt. Muscles rippled across his chest.She gasped...

Then, he spoke...


"Iron this -- and then get me a beer."
