What is the story behind your moniker/avatar?

It is very bad to steal my rum ... it is very bad.

I enjoy meeting the people who notice it & get in touch. Still owe a few folks further details...

Love it Bryan! You got no Mahhbulls!

My moniker is my name because I have little imagination.

My avatar is the centerpiece of my collection.

[quinnsryche]

Mine is a play on my name and the greatest piece of recorded music of all time Queensryche's Operation Mindcrime (my opinion and I actually mean it). Fits perfectly with the name, attitude and the time I "grew up". My wife would disagree as I will be 50 in 2 weeks and still am a 100% metalhead and card carrying (as well as collecting) dufus (ask my 16 yr. old son). I am always surprised to hear from so may others who message me about seeing metal bands back in the day and collect sports stuff today.

Keep on rockin' (with Dokken)!
Yeah, I said it.

[Jantz]

Well long story short, my moniker is my moniker. My real name is Jantz.

I've never been to an amusement park or truck stop and been able to find a key chain or a shot glass with my name on it. Recently I asked Coca Cola to put my name on a pop can, but haven't received a reply back yet. Probably won't happen since there are only three Jantzs in the world.

My avatar is of a postcard of the Polar Bear tobacco factory that was located here in Ohio.

My current avatar is a temporary NHL playoffs avatar once the Blues are eliminated I will likely change it again.

My moniker is the exact same or almost the same on every site I'm a part of. I originally picked it when I first started to collect vintage cards around 5 years ago. (I can't explain the hyphen)

[trdcrdkid]

I have no avatar, but maybe I should get one.

My moniker, trdcrdkid, is also my eBay username, which I picked out when I first registered for eBay back in 1999. As you can probably figure out, it comes from one of my other collecting interests, trade cards. I was active in the Trade Card Collector's Association in the late '90s, going to their conventions in Cherry Hill, New Jersey every year from 1996 to 1999, and was finally prompted to join eBay after seeing a presentation on it at the 1999 TCCA convention. The "kid" part comes from the fact that I was a relatively young whippersnapper among trade card collectors, even though I was 33 years old at the time.
