The Strangest Piece of Canes Memorabilia I Own
How did I acquire his gym bag? Ignoring the fact that I am in fact a big germaphobe, so big of one that I clean my razorblades daily with alcohol and change toothbrushes weekly. I acquired this by using sarcasm on a PNC Arena sales clerk with a good sense of humor. The last summer at the Canes annual summerfest my son and I crashed the team equipment sale to look at things we cant afford. Now I know you think retired Navy Vet turned teachers assistant means millionaire but sadly this is not the case. As we were walking out I noticed these linen bags on a table and inquired about them. The clerk working the table told me they were team laundry bags, and they were on sale for ten dollars a piece. I wondered aloud "who would pay ten bucks for something that held someone else dirty drawers" I jokingly looked at the clerk and said "Ill give you two bucks for the underwear bag." He looked at me strange, and I followed up with " I am going to use it to carry my lunch in to work because paper bags were bad for the environment." He laughed hysterically and said we had a deal. So I now own Ron Hainsey's dirty laundry bag for just two dollars and it hangs on the wall in Hurricane Alley to this day.
On a positive note the Eastern Conference Finals start Thursday and the Bruins look to be a tough out with Tukka Rask playing great in net and the Bruins are a deep team that registered over 100 points during the regular season. No matter what happens this season has exceeded my expectations, but that does not mean I am ready for it to end. So until next time thanks for reading and Redvolution!

But you aren't using it to carry your lunch in. This deal was made in bad faith. I think you still owe the clerk $8...
ReplyDeleteWell I still carry my lunch in The Eric Staal Jockstrap I bought 4 years ago
