Hi Mike. It was just awesome to finally meet you in person. You picked up some really sweet cards, That 49 Bowman is a beauty. So happy you survived the rink. This community is incredible and meeting everyone was the highlight of this weekend. Thank you for everything you do for this community and I really appreciate the time you took to get to know me. Thanks for everything Mike, talk soon pal.

Hello Mike. Tom from Michigan here. Enjoyed meeting you at Strongsville as well as some of the other KZitemrs. Especially loved the skating part. By the way my Paige auto came back authentic by JSA, which of course I knew it was since I got it as a kid. Good to have it done though for the future. I really enjoyed the show. All the videos being posted are great. I have been going to shows since the early 80's and collecting since I was a kid in the 60's. I have met many in the hobby over the years and this show was one of my favorites. I used to travel extensively for my job and stayed at the Marriott across from Rangers stadium quite a few times and took in games. As for TCU, a gal in my sons wedding last summer is a professor at TCU. My brother and I played D1 college golf as did my nephew and some of this friends. One of my nephews friends played for TCU and led them to 2 Conf USA titles. (google Colby Beckstrom). Hope to see you and more of the collectors at future shows. -Tom

Always enjoy your content and was hoping to make it to Strongsville...maybe will see you at Nationals. Interestingly I'm looking to pick up some of the cards i sold off to pay for my son to pursue his passion to play hockey. And his home rink the season he played for the Cleveland Barons was Strongsville. Impressed with the skating...I've done some scouting for hockey and there may be some raw, untapped talent there.

Just a suggestion....did Mike or anyone watch a KZitem "how to" video before this? ⚾️⛸️❄️ I was waiting for Mike to take off and skate like Gretzky and show you all how it's done. This confirms I should not be on the ice, well done for trying Mike. Congrats again on the big deal and that 49 Jackie, great card. Craig is great if you are looking for vintage from singles to set build in quantity, good people and good prices.
