I think we need something cool, since this season is going down the tubes.

I have that book. I may have that Wheaties box but not sure about that. I do know I have a Wheaties box with Johnny Bench on it.

**Also fun to look at your check register behind the book. Looks like you might be overdrawn. :)

Dad has the cereal box but still sealed. A bunch of the old pop bottles of the 1975 and 1976 Reds....also 2 of the uncut baseball card sheets from 1990

For a long time I did too. But my significant other finally made me open it up and throw out the wheaties. True story.

I have those too. I asked Bench to sign his hof Wheaties box and he said his contract forbid him to. He signed a ball for me.

I think it was a test and you failed. :)

Why would she care?

That's a question I've been asking a long series of women over the years going back to my mother.

I came across this book while boxing up some book this past weekend. I also had another one I forgot about called The Royal Reds. I'm pretty sure it was about the 1976 season.

I have the box, but Darn! I used the Wheaties to go carp fishing...

Yea, really, why? She really made you... Turn in your man card, (unless she went carp fishing, of course.)

I have an All Star Game hat from the 1988 All Star Game. I like the logo on it better than this year. If I get a chance this weekend I'll take a picture of it and post it.
