Its kinda sorta like getting the Heisman!

Like I said in an early post about buying couches from the clearance center at Furnature warehouse, I also found this football player statue there. I really liked it! I really dont know why maybe because it looks old fashion or something you could find at the D.I. I just thought it would be perfect sitting on my desk at work. As we're getting all the billing information taken care of, I asked the salesman "since we were buying couches how much for the football player statue?" His answer was perfect, he said "you can have it, only if you never bring it back and never let me see it again." I was just in shock. It was a done deal from there. As I carried it, I felt like I had just won the Heisman Trophey in a weird way. The statue having been on their sales floor as a prop for like 10 years and the owner was ready to see it go. Its really old looking, it has some scratches, dents and paint missing but I like it. I am now the proud owner of this statue. It cracks me up everytime I see it.
