SURPRISE! You Win A Dan Marino Autographed Football!

I, just like many others, have Facebook to visit with friends near and far away. I also have Facebook to enter contests from many local companies and even some far away. But, I don't like to enter as many far away not knowing who they. Yes, I have trust issues.

However, when one of those "suggested ads" popped up for SIG Auctions and noted a big giveaway, I said, "Well, why not?"

It was obviously the best choice I ever made.

The contest was for a Dan Marino autographed football and all you had to do was LIKE and SHARE the status for their upcoming auction. I did just that and never saw a winner announcement so I assumed either it was a sham or that I didn't win.

Well, to my surprise, I checked my "other inbox" on Facebook, something I only do weekly, and saw a message that I was the winner. I was still in disbelief and couldn't believe they were giving this away for FREE. So I messaged my address not sure if I would ever see it and a week later this came PSA certified....

I still can't believe it. It's also my first signed football so it was an added bonus. 

However, I wasn't so sure about keeping it stored in a ziplock so I went to BCW's website and picked up one of these snazzy BCW Acrylic Football Displays to display it in.

The mirror backdrop is cool.

Even after a few weeks I am still stunned to see this in my man-cave when I walk by it. A big thanks goes out to SIG Auctions for the signed ball and I suggest you go LIKE them on Facebook as well as you will never know when the next big giveaway may be.

Thoughts on my newest addition are welcomed!
