Should be a really really really BIG night tonight!

 I had a visitor today, Jeremy came over brought me that Jason Aldean Ginter card. The backstory here is that I've known Jason for 28-9 years. He was barely old enough to be in the bars. He has family here in Ocala and like me both Georgia boys, it seemed appropriate with a cousin of his who I worked with for over a decade knew I liked country music and back in them days had a way with the girls. He'd have me drag the girls to bar whenever Jason would be here playing. This was before his first record deal, which by the way was a bust, he switched that up, and then again later. Low behold by the mid 2000's he was kicking butts and taking names and hasn't stopped since. Yeah both Jason and I had a lot more hair and a whole lot less belly back then. He was a tall skinny kid. I've never bothered him since he got famous. But I do have a story or two, lol. At 47, Jason still has a couple of decades to go (though he'll never catch the KING George Strait), but with 28 country music chart toppers under his belt he should move up in the All-Time rankings currently at #13. Current Rankings .

Jeremy also brought me two new Stadium Club Braves too along with a handful of those HR/Hit thingy's.



Now we need to get back to those PC cards that I picked up in Ormond back in October. On second thought, I will throw out the odd ball stuff that I picked up on that trip including some non sport cards.




Some very shiny cards for my Presidential collection. January will be here before we know it.




A lot of shiny Donruss too.







I know that is a lot of 2024 Donruss, but I did say odd ball stuff, hehe. The Trout and Ohtani 205 DK cards were sweet gets (a set I am building).



I didn't even know there was a Diamond Kings insert of Diamond KIngs (the Alomar), so I'll have to chase those down too. Then you have some high end cards that I am set building. The Dylan Crews Donruss was the last card I needed for the 2024 Donruss base set.




Finishing up with some more set build needs.  That is all for tonight. Have a great night everyone! OH.... wait.... I did say this should be a really big night didn't I?


Tonight's post should and I repeat "should" bring me to a HUGE milestone....Actually it may have already surpassed it by the time this publishes!

ONE MILLION VIEWS!

  1. Happy million milestone. I don't know if 2024 Donruss is worthy of that.

    I know Jason Aldean is a country singer. Couldn't tell you a single song.

  6. Congratulations! That is quite the milestone. That's really cool that you know Jason Aldean. My best friend is a huge fan of his. She's the one that got me into listening to country.

  7. Congrats! I can hit reload a few times if you'd like. But clearly not needed.

    I kinda like those Marvels, Bomb Squad, and Unleashed cards. Pretty good looking for current Donruss!

  8. I was hoping you'd tell the story of how you knew Jason Aldean, very cool.
