Mine won't be a big deal to anyone else, but on Christmas night of 2005, I won an auction for a signed index card of former University of Dayton basketball coach Tom Blackburn. Blackburn is credited with bringing Dayton to a national power in the 1950's and 1960's, making the NIT finals six times and finally winning in it 1962. Blackburn passed away right before the final game of the 1964 season to cancer when he still was the active coach.
I purchased the index card for a WHOPPING $8 dollars and have not seen a Blackburn signature before that or ever again. I cover Dayton basketball as a beat reporter and know a lot of fans and alums. I've been offered $500 for the index card, but there's no way I am giving that up. |
