Some good news and bad today: First, the good news (loot! :D)

05-06 UD YG Ovechkin
98 UD BD quad diamond beezer /100
95-96 Zenith Z-team Felix, Messier, Carey (lol), Brodeur (non-promo)

These were from various sellers but mostly No no no...The Other Steve.

06 Parkie Duals Foligno/Perreault
08 Bond Archives SP Mitchell shirt/tie /375

Eugene (es_19) was nice enough to spot me $20 I was short to get the parkie auto, and the mitchell was a deal between His Bruceness and myself. Thanks to both for their awesome deals, and again to Eugene for being so generous with spotting me. I paid him back later in the day so no one can call me a deadbeat ;)

In true shocking form, I broke my 8 year current wax-free streak and bought a box of 09-10 UD Series 1 (:eek: :eek: :eek: ) for a shot at the redemption. The box wasn't so hot, but I figured at least I could pull an auto that would look cool. I just had a feeling to buy a box and sure enough, the redemption was...

09-10 UD Fall Expo Priority Signings Sidney Crosby SSP /10! :dance:

I was right in front of Karvin too who teased me about teasing him here in HI, so thanks to Karvin and crew for making a sweet redemption program. :)


Now, the bad news! On my way home, my knee shifted out of joint mid-step and I tumbled to the hard, painful pavement! I sprained my left ankle, my right wrist, and my right knee is in an incredible amount of pain! Yay!

I might miss the rest of the expo, but if I do make it, it'll be at a tremendously slow speed.

Thanks for the views, and take care :)

Sorry about the bad spill. I was half expecting you to say all those nice cards fell out of your pocket into a puddle.
 
That's the wax-breakin' karma train for ya, Wes! :rolleyes: Seriously though, sorry to hear about fall...hopefully it doesn't spoil the rest of your weekend. :(

On a brighter note, great pickups! Lovin' the Parkie dual, and congrats on the Sid! :beer:
 
you're welcome bud :)

great pull and it was fun to cruise the show with you today

hope you have a speedy recovery from your accident

Way to go Wes... Not on the injury but on the Crosby of course! Glad you snagged one of the big ones :D
 
Great stuff! That Crosby is pretty sweet! Sorry to hear about your fall. Knees suck! I know all about it. Hope your better soon.
 
I think I might be able to do a quick Sunday run so that's good. I won't stay the whole day, but anything beats nothing. :)

Thanks for all the well-wishing and kudos on my lucky Sid snag.
