Posted By: <b>Rhys</b><p>The next step will have to be game used gum (afer the Luis Gonzalez incident). There is big money in game used gum, and what goes better with baseball cards! The best part is that they can buy a wad for a few thousand dollars and chop it up into small pieces and makes hundreds of cards. No need for PSA/DNA, the players DNA is already in the gum!<BR><BR>They could then branch out into the game used tobacco products to insert into their vintage sets, but you would have to be 18 to buy those.<BR><BR>It really isn't that far of a cry from what is already happening.
