creasecollector Wrote:Thank you! It was a great find for my collection!The only story I have like that is meeting Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Ricky Jordan as a kid.
My best buddy's dad worked with his dad, so I was invited to a party at his house before spring training back in the day.
Ricky had just come off his rookie season where he hit .308, so my buddy and I were really big fans of his.
I was nervous because I had never met a pro athlete before, but he was a really nice guy.
Not only did he sign the two RCs I brought, but he also had a stack of minor league cards that I'd never seen before. He saw me looking at them and said to grab one of those, too, and he'd sign it for me.
All three cards are very cherished pieces of my collection.
