2006 Prediction Contest -- Prizes

Playing in Peoria

Peoria Chiefs Metallica Jersey size 44 #2 Game-worn and auto'd by Joe Simokaitis, LOA from IL MDA (Serena)

(includes auto'd snapshot of Simokaitis)

--This jersey was gameworn and the lower front is covered with dirt from a Simokaitis stolen base. (I've cleaned a similar jersey by brushing/beating out the dirt, then using the DIY dryer dry-cleaning bags). The jersey is dark black with reflective material to match the silver metallica patches.

[Laura]

Truffle's turn to choose.

 

What was the first prize taken?

Ah...I gottcha. Wasn't looking that closely.

[goonys evil twin]

Sweet, I assumed I was way out of it.

[Andy]

There are 10 prize packs.

 

I finished 11th of Premium members.

 

Way to go, me. :twisted:

I finished last in my own contest. 8-)

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I finished way out of the running as well.

[Laura]

Mark Prior's Calves has decided to keep the Sandberg auto'd baseball and let someone else choose the other items in the Hall of Fame package.

 

There are 10 prize packs.

 

I finished 11th of Premium members.

 

Way to go, me. :twisted:

 

Now there are 11. :)

[TruffleShuffle]

Darn, 5 points away from first! I would've chosen the same thing.

 

As much as Dusty Baker sucked, I think it would be cool to have the manager's copy of the batting order. I liked the Derrek Lee and Andre Dawson autographed cards, but I already have a ton of baseball cards. Also, I'd have picked the jersey if I had boobs... but I don't.

 

So, the Dusty batting order it is!

[NCCubFan]

Goony's evil twin is now on the clock. :D

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Goony's evil twin is now on the clock. :D

 

Goony is pulling a Minnesota Vikings!

[goonys evil twin]

sorry, I'll take the Ramirez figure

[Laura]

Just a reminder -- please PM me your name & mailing address so I can send these to you! I'm going out of town this afternoon, so what hasn't been mailed by then won't be sent until Monday.

 

Sandberg23 is up (and PM'd).

[sandberg23]

I'll take the jersey.

 

I've PM'd USSoccer.

 

Oops...I mean the women's jersey. :D

[USSoccer]

I will take the "Little League" package. I will also PM Bob's Keeper.

[Guest]

I'll take the Take Me Out to the Ballgame package and pass the word down the line.

[sweetpeteman]

I shall take Pitching Pitching Pitching and will notify Mr. Rawaction

[rawaction]

Is the Hall of Fame still available?

[Derwood]

I guess my Sosa Bobblehead didn't make a prize pack? Maybe I'll offer it for next season...

[Laura]

Is the Hall of Fame still available?

 

Yes, minus the Sandberg auto'd baseball, which Mark Prior's Calves selected.

 

I guess my Sosa Bobblehead didn't make a prize pack? Maybe I'll offer it for next season...

 

Whoa, sorry if there was a disconnect. Usually people mail the donations to me, then I send them out to the individual winners so that that donators don't have to send out more than one packet. Saving it for next year would be great; I have a couple of bobbleheads already. We could have BOBBLEHEAD MANIA!!!
