adam,

you weren't the only one that mays did that too. i remember hitting a card show in charlotte w/ my dad and standing in line for well over an hour...this had to be 87/88 maybe. anyways, i vividly remember another father/son combo but of different ethnicity directly in front of us...he talked a good 2 or 3 mins with them, which felt like forever when you are "next". anyways, i said "hello mr. mays, it's a pleasure meeting you" and mofo didn't even acknowledge us whatsoever. i mean, didn't even look up....

i wasn't crushed or anything, but i remember my dad being visibly disturbed. we still talk about it occasionally. i would put him in the same category as charles barkley, if anyone has had the displeasure of bumping into him.

i wont collect either one of them. but i am guilty of occasionally searching for a 51 bowman....

and funny you mention the ascca show...i actually have a babe ruth card that was printed for that show. has "hotel taft" on the back. one of my oddball favs!
