We were at the Alameda County Fair (in the Oakland A's backyard) and in the hobby section we ran across a baseball card diorama celebrating the history of the Athletics...AND HE STAPLED THE OLD AND NEW CARDS ALIKE TO THE WALLS OF THE DISPLAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mercy, mercy me!!!!!!!!!! AsFairCards01.jpg AsFairCards02.jpg At least Roger Maris somewhat escaped the same fate...although he is merely a California tremor away from free falling out of his holder... AsFairCards03.jpg And on a completely unrelated note, when I saw this, all I could hear in my head was Jonathan Winters saying, "It's buried under a big 'W'...a big dubbaya I tell ya!!!!" thebigw02.jpg
