I won't lie. A few days ago, I was grabbing a bagel, and I usually get a juice or a coffee to wash it down. But something else caught my eye in the beverage cooler:
No, not the card. I wish. I'm talking about YooHoo! I chugged it so damn fast I didn't even savor it. It's still that good. If it weren't so bad for me, I'd drink three a day. But I think I'll stick to the one per year. That's allowed.
That sweet YooHoo Rizzuto (which I needed for my PC) came from a Night Owl PWE over the summer sometime. I don't know when, but I have a big folder of scanned cards from trades or packages that were months ago. Not acceptable, but I'll get around to them all at some point.
Greg also shot me a few more Yanks, and a really cool Tino from Topps Magazine!
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.
YooHoo oddball! What a great card. I drank about a liter of Hawaiian Punch the other day. I'm guessing it was proabably about 15,000% of my daily sugar intake, but no regrets.
ReplyDeleteI never liked chocolate milk, even as a kid. So the concept of Yoohoo sounded great and the commercials always made it sound great, but anytime it got near me, I couldn't do it.
ReplyDeleteBecause I don't have any people depending on me, nor did I decide to take on any priorities, I just drink whatever, whenever regardless of how many years of my life each drop is taking away.
ReplyDeleteA bottle of Yoo Hoo is the traditional way my fantasy league champion celebrates. Started that tradition 36 years ago. For a couple of years I remember we couldn't find it in Houston (lack of a distributor?) but we've been good to go for at least the last 10 years.
