Judging by all the folks hanging around Legendary's booth at the National, I think it's safe to say more big things lie ahead for this company.

Default Thanks for participating!

I appreciate everyones participation in what we judged to be a successful event!

Although the Science Center was a last minute replacement for the ESPN zone I think everyone agreed it was perfect especially with the rooftop view of the Inner Harbor on what turned out to be a mild night.

Our crowd stretched beyond our limit of 175 people but everyone seemed to have a good time.

The highlight of the night was Brooks Robinson who is a gracious ambassador for the game.

The highlight for me was hanging out for 3 hours after the event with a hobby pioneer who was outbid at $25k for the Hage's dairy collection. I asked him if $150 a card was too rich he said he only needed 12 of the cards so it was really $2k a card!

I truly appreciate the support at the show from the many Network 54 members that stopped by the booth and showed up at the event. Look forward to something special as we move to our home town next year. After the success of this event we already have a number of great items committed for next year.

I, for one, was disappointed that they started the auction early. The literature said it was to start at 8:30. Additionally, three people from Legendary said it was to start at 8:30. Upon arriving at 8:23, we discovered they were already closing Lot #5. Others arrived at a similar time (before the scheduled start time). Potential bids were lost by starting early.

All in all, though, the venue was nice and set up better and much more comfortable than the one the night before. Some head scratchers both high and low, but that is typical for most auctions. I enjoyed myself at both of the live auctions.

Default And that bid was actually 5K more than he planned

For me the highlight of the evening was trading old hobby war stories with said pioneer after he was out bid on the Hage's lot -0--

What a great venue for the event and although I don't bid on anything -- just hanging out and seeing what is going on is a treat in itself.
