⚾ 🥎 Pirates going "all in" for the Paul Skenes rookie card. Look at this offer.

Wow, that would be pretty cool. Chances are this card is in some brief case pack that costs $5,000.

 

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

Would trade.

 

[TerryP]

Would trade.

I'd like to read the fine print. I'd take it, if it's allowed, and sell those tickets. The other experiences I'd take even though I'm no fan of the team.

Taking batting practice? That would be fun.
Meeting guy like Clemente?

He did the same with the Ohtani 50/50 ball. Basically giving money down and betting it sells for more money course.

Seems like there may have been a thread about this ...

If you can find Clemente then the loot the Pirates will give you will dwarf this Skenes haul.

I didn't mean that literally. Like meeting Stargel.

Well, it would make for a good Discovery Channel show... better than Finding Escobar's Millions...

The "We Are Family" era is one of those years I remember as a kid.

This isn't a shot. It's just a thought.

The Diamondbacks don't have the history...it would be fun just looking back through the Pirates history. It won't, but it'll come close to competing with NY's or LA's history.

 

[TerryP]

@Brandon Van de Graaff Idle thought. Somewhat related.

I'd like to know how many rival fans walk through the museum on a Saturday when they are in town. And, how many stop in when it's just during the week.

 

[doemasters]

I might have it laying around the house somewhere

 

[doemasters]

I know the one from this year from Bowman draft has a tom brady baseball card has a 500k bounty on it and nobody has seen it yet and I have 2 boxes at the house that the value has to keep on rising as long as it does not show up

 

[TerryP]

This is a deal breaker. I don't want to sit with her in a game.

And if that wasn't enough, Skenes’ girlfriend Livvy Dunne, an LSU gymnast, doubled down on that offer.

"Let's raise the stakes," she responded to the offer in a post on X. "The person who finds the card can sit with me at a Pirates game in my suite."

Just like all big lottery jackpots. They'll love getting their little hands on the tax dollars from the sell of this one.

They know where he is. His playing days are over.

Ehh, I’d be okay starring at her for a game. As long as she didn’t talk.
