Had the joy of playing there a few times during my career. Had I made it to the next level and had a bucnha dough lying around, I’d want it to donate to my high school or maybe a wiffle ball field in my backyard!

Sorry, but the 83 11/16" nut is a dealbreaker for me.

In my household, buying something like that is called an “UFBAW”. That is a purchase that when the purchaser shows it to the spouse, the answer is, invariably, “you effing bought a WHAT?!?”

It’s an expression often used at yard sales, weekend antique shows, and while watching “American Pickers”, while looking at some of the odd things that people seem inclined to try selling.

Sorry guys.....it's been sold

https://www.wsmv.com/news/greer-stadium-scoreboard-sold-to-developer-for/article_fbc7235e-5b01-11e9-b701-83250830a5cd.html

At least it will still be used - and not rusting in a land fill somewhere.
