***Official 2018 FBG T-shirt Exchange - 2018 is Complete*** (1 Viewer)

“Is this from a woman this time?  The handwriting looks like a woman’s.  I know people have had their secretaries send then in the past.”

-my wife

 
FYI, the Karate Kid shirt was because the movie was filmed all over the San Fernando Valley and Malibu, so it made sense to me. my niece actually plays softball on the same field where Daniel Larusso went to 'school'.

The 818 brewery is a fairly new brewery that opened up in the valley. they just had their 3 year anniversary, hence the anniversary pint glass.

Bottle Logic is an amazing brewery in Anaheim. some of their limited release bottled get sold online to collectors for $400+!

 
Not complaining about my stalkees, because I know people are busy, but people should really try to post pics of their hauls, at least later on if not at the time of reception. To me, that's part of the greatness of this whole thing, seeing what everyone gets, as well as getting ideas for next year's packages. I look forward to this each year (I think this is my third year, IIRC), and even my kids like to help me out with assembling the t-shirt package.

Should be required 

 
Received a fantastic haul from @Lehigh98 today.

Included was a Funk Brewing t-shirt, Gallows Hill t-shirt, 4 pack of Funk suds, Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs ballcap, Funk and Gallow coasters and what looks to be a pilfered menu from Gallows Hill Brewery and a really nice and personal letter with stamps from all the establishment plus a real wheat penny.  The pièce de résistance had nothing to do with Lehigh...a Make America Great Again hat!

After wrestling the hat away from the wife before she could torch it on the stove, I was able to snag a pic of the haul.

Lehigh Valley Haul

The funny thing is that I live in Maryland and I'm a huge University of Maryland fan.  We have friends who both went to Lehigh and now both of their kids are going to Lehigh and I ride them mercilessly about sending their kids to such a peasant (haha) college. 

@Lehigh98 my friend, you perfectly embody what this exchange is all about.  Your time and obvious thoughtfulness is much appreciated!  Go Pigs!

My stuff gets sent out no later than this weekend, it's all been acquired and apologies for sucking so hard this year.

 
Down to 15 people who haven't yet sent a shirt. I'm going to wait until after the weekend and post the names again.

They'll get one more week, and if it's not sent, we will get replacement senders.

No more F'ing around. We gotta get this done.

Glad you liked it, sorry it took a while!

(I stole the penny idea from @EYLive but upped it to a wheat penny)

By the way, US News & World Report National University Rankings:

Lehigh - #46

University of Maryland-College Park - #61

I’m not a big picture taker, and don’t use any of the online picture repositories. Point me to a place where I can post a pic of my haul, and I’ll glady do so. 

 
So I ended up with a double shot from Brad, but I have no idea who the alias is.  It doesn't look like he updated the spreadsheet, but whoever it is sent me some good ####.  Either way, super cool shirts Brad and especially love the Mammy's Myrtle Beach one.

Photobucket and Imgur are both free to use, you just have to sign up and set up your account, which is relatively painless

 
Finally, it's a little blurry at first, but here is a picture of Hagmania's package

1 - All of it

2 - Pancake City shirt live from the 6-1-5

3 - Explanation of Pancake Pantry (Hags is fortunately already waiting in line, holding my spot). 

4 - A token for a free beer at Fat Bottom Brewing (girls included)

5 - A description of all of the contents, in the most delicate of cursive.

6 - A insanely long, handwritten hyperlink.  I couldn't get there, though, so I think maybe there is a character off.  Hags, can you check it and re-write and re-send?

oh, wait, here it is: https://forums.footballguys.com/forum/topic/765104-the-hug-life-chroniclesred-dress-run-weekend-race-day-part-2-night-life-update-pg-49-82218/?do=findComment&comment=20889491

I honestly understand nothing about that video except the Saints jersey, but many of you are likely jealous that I am now the proud owner of

7 - The pigeon(?) prop!

8 - Shirt from McKay's Flea Market (I guess?)  Very cool, unique.

9 - A set of blank cards from local, historic Hatch Printery, along with crayons.  I will use these to write Hags 10 thank-you cards.

10 - Description of McKay's, because I messed up this order and wish it were all better, but imgur is being a #### and I am frustrated with it.

11 - SHEEP: THE BOARD GAME!   Well, I don't have the picture of the written instructions, but basically, make up 10 questions (which Hags would certainly deem inadequate) and each participant writes their answers on the enclosed notepads.  

Thanks again! @hagmania

Appreciate the variety, specificity and novelty of everything.

These will be worn and used in good health, and I have a friend in Nashville who I have threatened to visit for years, so don't be surprised if it happens one day.

P.S. I forgot to mention the greatest part of all, the box in which it arrived!  Which I was able to re-use this morning to finally mail out my package, after stupidly recycling all the cardboard at the beginning of the week, despite knowing I needed one.

Holy carp, someone has a lot of time on their hands.

Hagmania you kill me.  That video is a work of art. 

 
I'm about a week late on the pictures, but here's my haul from Dodds:

Thanks, I really enjoyed this stuff.  No joke, my wife has stolen both of my raincoats to wear over her winter clothes, and I've been looking for a new one.  I already told her to keep her hands off my new one.
Wow he sent you a shirt, jacket, camera and a cannon!!!!!!   That is a great haul!
