Goon here- This is something that I never in a million years would have thought that the Queens Baseball Convention's Award would ever have ended up in a sports memorabilia auction. I have for years and years looked at these auctions and have been like "this is cool, that's cool" but to see an award that was created by a group of fans be put up for grabs at an auction house makes my giggle(yes giggle) and be proud at the same time. Thanks to Nick D. for sending this over.
