This place is huge. There is so much to see. It absolutely took me two days and i feel i saw most of it but I also have laser focus on things I am into so who knows what I missed.

But I did see some cool items.

This is an early telling of the wreck of the Titanic. I own many books on the subject, but this one remains out in the wild for someone else to discover and take home.

WWE Evolution Pay Per View collectible chair. This event was sadly, sparsely attended. To those in the area who didn't attend, they missed a great event with some incredible matches. This chair has some rarity due to the lack of attendance. It is now in my home.

Murphy Brown, Florida and Chris LeDoux. What do these things have in common? You may just see me repping them someday soon.

This was my big score, and my most expensive. The 1994 Rolling Stones Voodoo Lounge All Over Print T Shirt. This one does not come cheap, but through my impeccable negotiating skills, I was able to talk my way to a 45% discount off the asking price.

Go me.
