I'm pretty sure Merkle would have signed it 'GOAT/B', which of course stands for "Greatest of All Time, subcategory Boner"

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

And remember, fans...the next time you sell a card or "oooh" and "ahhh" over one someone else has, don't hesitate to use another worn out, over-used, cliche..."it has great EYE APPEAL!!!!!!"...as if it's a Rembrandt or a Van Gogh!

I have seen a few Rembrandt paintings and a lot of Van Gogh paintings. They look better the farther away you stand. Now I know how to look at PSA 1 cards to give them great "eye appeal".

Irregardless of the fact...

Swell idea to make a drinking game of it. Iconic Bingo. Pick some of the words that have been mentioned in previous posts (iconic, GOAT, super, literally, etc.) and then go watch a live case/box break on Youtube. Hammered by the second pack.
