Someday I'll have to get out the Cubs coffee cup I have so I can post pics. It's restauraunt china which makes me think it's from wrigley. I can't really see it as a souvenir, and I can't think of a reason a diner or place like that would use the cubs logo.

Did they have a team coffee area or anything like that when you were there?

I picked up a few plates from Fenways 406 club from one of the staff. When they remodeled and renamed it he asked if he could have some of the plates. They said to take as many as he wanted since they'd just get thrown out.

And there was at least one person saving Red Sox stuff before the new owners came in. I only bought one thing, but they had a bunch of internal paperwork. The one I picked was the sheet Yaz signed when he was issued his uniforms one year. Stuff was getting collectable then, and I think he took whatever was being tossed. Same thing, need a closet? throw out whatever's in there and fill it up again.
