Sick as a dog
Scoop still did his talk today because he knew how many out of town friends were going to attend, I mean the man could barely talk, but did it anyway.
Today was special. He had everybody, and I mean everybody fill out a name tag, and put down the names of two pins that they have been looking for whether they be holy grails or not on the name tag.
Then he asked everybody to walk around, and see if they could find anybody else that had a pin they needed to see if trades could be made on the spot, and in fact a few trades were made.
Then I was asked to put on the vest o-pins that I found out weighs like 90 pounds and stand in the corner, the lucky folks that did in fact make trades then got to pick a pin off the vest. Now some had Wet paint HM Dangle and so on, so they did not get to trade.
Here is the best part if you did not, or were not able to make a trade, Scoop took your name tag and handed it off to two of his assistants which took the tags back into the back and they went into the wonderful world of Disney Magic pin chest, and found close to if not on the money comparable pins to match the requests on the name tags.
If hey they could not find you a match, you got a chance at me and the vest, so everybody got a pin and I mean some fantastic pins were handed out. On the vest that I could tell I had auction pins, I had retired pin, cast pins and LE100 pins. Im telling you what people got some good stuff.
Now I stink at names, plus I was in the corner getting pin poked, so chime on in if this was you. Somebody got that I know of as their holy grails A Scoop pin, a King Triton from the cruise pin, an artist proof Aurora pin not released as oh yet, and that was just the surface.
A little girl whose birthday was yesterday, and who loves the boys AKA Licorice and Butterscotch was awarded with a signed copy of the boys She thought it was just a loan and was quite surprised when she figured out they where hers to keep.
So since I stink at names, and was stuck in a corner chime on in, and tell us what you got.
P.S. Im not supposed to know this but there was something special about that vest I had on I may or may not reveal my secret!!!!
So today was a special day that came from the heart from Scoop to all of you.
