Thought This Was Funny
I am not a hockey collector, but ran across this on ebay today. I am from Charlotte so I was just checking out the different Hurricanes cards. I came across this

The funny part is the Hurricanes are based in Raleigh NC, but in the background of the card they put in downtown Charlotte buildings.

Yup. Looks like they just used 3 of the buildings in the card, but it is bigger than that. Just thought it was funny because we hear it from Raleigh ppl all the time about how their city is better etc. Wonder how the fans felt about that card.

Cute! Reminds me of a T-shirt I saw in the local WallyWorld a few years back. It had a Buffalo Bills helmet with Niagara Falls in the backround. "The Ralph" is over 30 miles (highway) away from Niagara Falls, in another county. To top it off, the actual view of the Falls as seen on the shirt is only visible from Canada...
