Wow, Doug, what an amazing story!
I love it, including the part that you had to barter your ghetto blaster for a tank of gas for the Elk.
So sorry to hear that you lost the ball.

Man, what a story. I hope that ball is somewhere out there still, even if it's lost you.

I agree, but I do hope that if it is, I some day am able to get it back.

Look what I found!!!!!

Read the original sad sad story below in post #21.

In a closet at my parents house, with special thanks to my dad for spending 10 days in the hospital causing me to come home to help my mom. Dad is home now and doing better, and I was going thru his closet to find a specific shirt that he thought would be more comfortable...

Doug, I am so happy for you! That is the greatest baseball I've ever seen. I read my wife your story, without stating you found it, and she was quite upset I would tell her a sad story. But she was very excited for you too when she discovered you got it back.

I just got my third team signed ball: 1990 Cincinnati Reds. I think they are so cool.
