Many people had a Charizard card but who here had his rookie card?

If you're a huge fan of someone (musician, actor, whatever) and you get a chance to do a VIP sort of thing, even if you have to dump it on your credit card and pay it back for years, it's totally worth it.
Sage financial advice!

You had to fill out cards before the show started. Although they didn't pick my card, my question DID get asked. It was asking about making a movie like that today -- apparently a very popular question and the one he gets asked the most.

I mean, hey, I got to SING a 15-second solo when Weird Al shoved that microphone in my face in July! No price tag on that fun!

I sold many of my special land cards from M:TG for 200 each or so. I sold a mint foil Uncommon card for over close to 300!

I had many cards in sets of 4, with each card n the set going for between 100-200 bucks.

That said, I am most likely still in the hole as far as that game is concerned. Blech!

I see what you did there!
What, like a race? The kind of coverage local events like that get can be annoying, I agree, what with all the news vans tearing up the lawn.
Looking forward to two peaceful days without workmen before they are back with a vengeance digging up and relaying the drive.

Sold a large portion of my most valuable M:TG cards in 2016. Used the funds to pay for my wedding.
