For over 10 years now I've been handing out candy and CARDS.

Just finished team bagging, and this year the kids are getting:

A mix of Allen and Ginter!

Hope you all have a good Halloween!

I would have come to your house for sure, and since none of my friends really collected, would have ended up trading for candy--great idea

Yeah, those kids definitely are getting a trick rather than a treat. ;)

This is great! This is exactly what got me into cards when I was 6 years old back in 1987. One of my neighbors gave out packs of 1987 and I still have the Barry Bonds RC out of my pack... At the time I was a big fan of his and the Bash Bros. What you are doing is great and will hopefully inspire many others!

Unfortunate conversation between two kids after leaving your house:
"Who'd you get?"
"I dunno, some dude named Ted Williams. He must suck, 'cuz I never heard of him. How 'bout you?"
"Josh Gibson. Must be a crappy minor league scrub. Oh well."
Both youngsters chuck the cards into nearby shrubs. ::facepalm::

Just so you know, I'm making fun of the kids, not your idea, which I WILL be stealing for next year's Halloween!!! :D

That's a cool idea. I never thought of doing that. Though how many kids do you think will egg your house after getting those?

Just gave the Gibson one to a kid down the street who will appreciate it....

This is a great way to perpetuate interest in the hobby!

This will be the tenth year I've given a card and candy to each trick or treater. My wife is STILL amazed that the kids get excited over the cards.
