That whole thing is a collectors dream. Any one of use dreams of having a day like yours with our favorite athlete.

Congrats! I can only hope that one day I too can have an experience half that good!

This is one of the best things I have ever seen on the interwebs, and I have seen porn.

Absolutely amazing. I was cheering reading this

100% agree. No one visiting the blowout forums should miss this post!

More than the autos you've got a moment that you'll be able to share with your grandkids and your son will be able to share with his grandkids. Well done!

So awesome, congrats!

This is honestly something that as a collector everyone wishes would happen to them. You are the lucky 0.00000001% that it has.

Wow, Mouschi! This is probably the coolest thread I have ever read on a collecting forum. Just unreal. That would be such a cool/weird/awesome experience to hang out with your favorite baseball player at his house.

LIKE! A! BOSS!

Such a cool story... I just re-told it to my wife

Congrats on a awesome day.

I already had respect for Canseco... have a ton more now after seeing how cool he was towards you and your family.


Awesome, awesome stuff. One of the best threads I have ever seen.

I know you are going to remember that forever. I truly enjoyed reading your post. You are an inspiration to us player collectors. You have tremendous artistry and imagination in creating your customs. You are amazingly dedicated to your collection.

Thanks for writing this and all of the compliments and accolades you will receive over the next few days are well deserved.

Good God what a read. Took 45 minutes to really read it all but was worth it. I'm 34 and Jose is the man. Well done.
