Isn't it said that after the third time you are offiicially dating!? You and Tony are getting pretty serious, aren't you?? LOL! That's awesome, though. The whole personallized plate thing is pretty cool! I'm definitely looking forward to the pictures! My son is a diehard Tony fan, and though he's only 7, he saw just the close up of the Stewart auto and just knew who it was!! I can't wait until the day he meets Tony!

Im out of class Wednesday to Sunday next week though Wednesday and Thursday Im cooking for all the family that is coming in over at my folks (yeah go to culinary school and get chosen to do all of the holiday cooking LOL). However since I refuse to go shopping on the Friday after Thanksgiving, I will have some time to start taking all the pictures. Will probably add them to my site and post a link.

No problem...I got a pic of the cueball Jeanette signed for me along with what else I got from the BPS grand opening up here in Toledo this summer...
Front: Truex 1/24 '07 '57 Chevy tribute, Jeanette Lee auto'd cueball, Archie Griffin auto'd mini helemet (1968-1976 style)
Back: Truex auto'd hero card, Keith Byars auto'd trading card and 8x10, Tony Semple auto'd trading card and 8x10.
Just like you, I didn't go after the hunters or fishermen...the Byars/Semple/Griffin line was a 40 minute wait after they got there to sign. And that doesn't include the two hour wait in line for them. And I wanted to get Truex and Lee before I left for teh night. At least you got Miss 'Bama and who can complain about that...LOL
At the BPS website, they promote their grand openings about a week or two in advance. Along with Truex and Stewart (even though Tony wasn't at the Toledo opening) they will have at least another stick-and-ball sports related guest at the show. Jeanette has a sponsorship deal with Bass Pro and does BPS grand openings from time to time as well. I had the pleasure of watching her play pool while waiting for her sig...it's like watching (fill in your favorite driver's name) race.
BTW, 'Bama AND Auburn players in the same area...so close to the Iron Bowl? Isn't that a little dangerous? LOL

Yeah, not being from Alabama I don't get the whole Alabama - Auburn BS and let me tell ya I've been on job interviews where that was asked as to who I rooted for. Being a Southern Miss Alum has never been a strong point unless they bring up Reggie Collier or Brett Favre.
