Hoodwinked & Bamboozled

I think I was setup.  I am pretty sure of it.

I mentioned yesterday that Rick at my LCS called to tell me I had won the monthly raffle at his shop.  Now let's get this straight, I never win.  I never win random drawings, the lotto, staff luncheon door prizes, giveaways, bingo.  Really the only thing I win at is all you can eat buffets.  So when he called and said I was a "winner", I was ecstatic.



So I hurried in to the LCS today to collect my prize.  There was a collection of items in a box: some huge football bobble-heads  several t-shirts and hats from card manufacturers, posters, an Adrian Petersen bracelet; otherwise known as junk.

Rick knew I would just drop some cash on other items and hooked me in with the "prize".  Now, I appreciate Rick's friendship and I know he's gotta get people in the door --- to keep the doors open, too.

So I chose 4 graded cards, two of which will be included in my GIVEAWAY!!!  Check here for all the details

YOU TOO CAN BE A WINNER, LIKE ME!

So when I came home today, I saw Jeff over at 2x3 Heroes wrote a nice trade post we've been working on the last month, it made my day.  Thanks Jeff.

I guess I am winning.

Winner, Winner!

Rick from my LCS just called with news that I was one of the lucky winners in his monthly drawing.  Sounds like a lot of football packs to be claimed tomorrow.

Should it be football related (or any other non-Tigers for that matter) I will include it in my ND Title Game Giveaway.  To enter the Giveaway go to this blog entry and leave a winner and score prediction and how many passing yards ND will have for the entire game as a tie-break.

Check back tomorrow for what I (and maybe you!) won!

ROLLLLLLLL TIDE!

Keep it hot on the corner, Pat.
