Yes, my family has my memorabilia with the promise that they keep all of the memorabilia in the family. I am definitely going to buy some Reggie bars. They remind me of the turtle chocolate candies that I enjoy, but bigger.
Max, what is your favorite memorabilia item? Mine are probably non-Yankee. When I retired my staff gave me a Johnny U autographed helmet. Also met Arnie and he signed a cap for me.
The aforementioned seat from the original Yankee Stadium.

Any notable items in your former collection that you'd like to share with us? (I mean telling us what they are, not giving them to us  )
A seat from the original Yankee Stadium. When they were about to renovate the stadium after the 1973 season, The NY Daily News had cutout coupons in their newspaper. All a fan had to do was cutout the coupon, take it to Yankee Stadium and they would be handed a seat for free.
lol, thats awesome. |

Arnold Palmer often advised fellow golfers to sign autographs and to make them legible as a sign of respect to fans. Not sure how many pro athletes feel that way but I always thought it was classy on his part. He signed a hat for me and his autograph is very neat and readable. One of my grandsons was a huge Nick Swisher fan, when he was with the Yanks. After Swisher signed with the Indians, who hold Spring Training here in AZ, I was able to get him to sign a jersey for my grandson. Check out his hieroglyphic-like autograph...   |

Mine is the same all the time. Get in line for my autograph and you get the same one my bank gets on my checks… Same here. My signature is an indecipherable short scribble...exactly the same when I'm required to initial anything. I’m just about there, too. It’s a mutilation of the letters LWIng when I sign and a mutilation of LWI for the initials, but only I can see the difference… |

I always liked Swisher. Would like to see the Yankees bring him and Gardner back as coaches someday. In my opinion, Swisher would also be a good TV/Radio announcer for the Yankees. |

I forgot to write my review of the Reggie Bars I ordered!
This was my first time trying the re-issued Reggie Bars. Covered in milk chocolate with old fashioned peanuts and a caramel core inside, they were definitely a tasty treat! It had a unique shape, kind of like an unshaped mound rather than a processed rectangle or square. The milk chocolate was creamy and delicious. The peanuts tasted more like the kind you would find at a ball game than the kind you find in say a Snickers bar. The caramel center was sweet then salty. Altogether, maybe not a HR but still a solid double off the wall! Would buy again. Overall rating: 7/10.

Pretty much like the originals it seems. Reggie says if that only went off the wall you need to pull the fences in… |

Heads up guys, I am taking a trip the city and will be away from Sunday to Tuesday. Someone keep an eye on inger. 
We're going to Jeju Noodle Bar one night, a Korean Restaurant. Let me know if anyone has tried it before.
Another night we're making a return trip to Francie in Brooklyn. The dry aged crown of duck was so good, we had to go back.
We took a picture of the duck before they cut it:
Be good and I'll see you guys Tuesday night!
