Dave and I went down for the season finale between the Browns and Ravens it was a win to get into the playoffs for the Ravens nothing new this was the 3rd straight season last 2 were loses and no playoffs, But this year seems different and it was with a nail biting 26-24 win on an C.J. Mosley interception on 4th and 10 when they also could have attempted a 57 yard field goal (But they don't have Justin Tucker).  As for autographs we did before and after the game.  The game was a featured CBS game so we had Nantz/Romo also Ray Lewis was in the house.  I wound up getting 30 Players and a total of 38 Autographs.  Pictures and a listing are below.

Buccaneers @ Ravens

Dave and I went down for the game yesterday the weather was god awful pouring all of the game.  We went down early and stayed late anyway which was probably a mistake before the game it was pouring so we went to the Casino from there went to stadium a little before gates opened and the rain let up a little and got one Autograph....... Lamar Jackson.  Went to the Rail for the Bucs and only got one guy before rain became to much of a factor and it was Chris Godwin.  We were able to get Mark Schlereth since he was doing the game for Fox and Dennis Pitta & Matt Birk at an inside radio show.  We watched most of 1st half from my seats and then made our way to the Miller Light heated tent for the remainder of the game.  We did go back to seats for last couple minutes and to try for some equipment I did get a skull cap from Za'Darius Smith, at this point the game was over and for the most part so was the rain so we hung around for post game autographs. Here is who and what I got in total 25 autographs from 14 players:
1) Chris Godwin - 3x5.
2) Mark Schlereth - a Card & Card Panel.
3) Matt Birk - 8x10.
4) Dennis Pitta - 2 Cards.
5) Maxx Williams - 5/25 Rookie Playbook.
6) Sam Koch - 8x10.
7) Lamar Jackson - a Card & 3x5.
8) Bradley Bozeman - Autograph Card.
9) Gus Edwards - Autograph Card.
10) Hayden Hurst - Signature Card.
11) Willie Snead - 3 Cards.
12) Tyler Ervin - 3 Cards.
13) Buck Allen - 3 Cards.
14) Eric Weddle - 3 Cards.

Cavellis Luckett

I received in the mail today a couple signed 3x5's and a couple 4x6 pictures signed by Cavellis Luckett he was one of my Raven needs as he spent the entire 2016 season on the injured reserve list.  I had contacted him on twitter and he was nice enough to give me his address and return what I sent out.  So I'm one step closer to completing the Ravens project.  He also wrote a couple of notes on the back of each of the 3x5's see the signatures and notes below.

The Struts

A few of us went to Club XL last night for The Struts The Body Talk Tour along with The Parlor Mob concert.  The Parlor Mob hit the stage about 9:15 and plated 45 minutes.  Then it was time for the headliners The Struts who went on at 10:30 and played til midnight.  The Struts were great and I recommend seeing them live, great songs (including a couple covers from Springsteen & Bowie), a lot of fan interaction, high energy.  I was close enough to get Jed Elliott to throw me a pick and I did catch it so it's in the collection now. They had a meet & greet  before the show that we didn't pay for think it was $120 each, and the had security in the alley were the bus was parked so didn't get any autographs.
