Yes the 88 Bo in my avatar was my first card. I have since crossed it to a POP 1 PSA 1. I’ll be displaying this holy grail at the National.
Bo was the first player I collected when I first got into the hobby as a kid.

Playing cards have been around for centuries. You're off the hook.

Very, very cool. I love seeing athletes involved in the hobby, especially with the purest foundation - childhood collections.

Looking forward to stopping by at the National. While you're in Cleveland, can you stop by Berea and give the Browns some tips on who to put at Left Tackle?

Bo was the man. Unfortunately, it seems like a lot of the younger people at my work have no idea who is - and I am only 32.

Yeah young people are the worst. Who even is this Boa constrictor guy you're talking about

Those of a certain age will remember this, perhaps the greatest 30 second ad of all time.

Apparently Gretzky's "No" was spontaneous, he was supposed to say Bo knows hockey.
