We no longer have time to vet crazy...we just run with it.

Lol I can't stop laughing at this.

Collecting cards his whole life, yet calls it a “remake” . Seems legit

picojim · 02-14-2019, 05:24 PM

Ball says he's received, and turned down, three multi-million dollar offers to buy the card.

Dude's a liar. He knows what he has is a fake and is just trying to sell his story to the masses. Funny.

Guy seems like a kook. Oh well he got his 15 minutes of fame, he'll probably be weighing blasters at the Visalia Wal-Mart soon.

Authenticated but he has a 2.5 million dollar card in a top load that they then put inside a screw down. Okay....

tonedef2oo8 · 02-15-2019, 11:38 AM

Jason Mars was “authenticated” also. First some eBay rep then some sketchy pawn shop owner. Both where lies...

scotthenrichs · 02-15-2019, 11:39 AM

I just can't believe reputable media was duped that this was actually a story. This is literally fake news.

salthill · 02-15-2019, 11:48 AM

Edited. Watching the clip he looks like he did just enough research to see dollar signs. Always dangerous.

Very fake news.

picojim · 02-27-2019, 01:55 AM

update:
The authentication process of the Babe Ruth card in question is not yet complete, he also buy a collection which he calls "mother lode" with Lorenzo Neal (the ex-football player)

I miss Jason Mars. I still have his t206 propeller head card. He was so much fun to troll. I firmly believe he actually believed his own stupidity.

Tell me he doesn't look like Mars a little bit?

callou2131 · 02-27-2019, 08:27 AM

Took the guys on net54 about 3 minutes to see it was a fake. A member there owns or owned the only authenticated ruth from that set. There is a tear on it on the right hand side. This card, they printed the tear into the card.

Very rare. In fact, even more rare than authentic 206 Wagners.

Cliff notes: the card is authenticated because fibers in the paper and ink are consistent with cards of that time period according to Fresno State professor John Pryor. An auction house has stated bidding would start at 1.5 million and could bring in as much as 4.5 million, but Ball doesn’t want to sell because the card deserves to be on a wall in Yankee stadium next to Ruth’s statue.
