I'm still looking for someone, anyone, to corroborate that they sold a candy called "Rangz" (sp?) in the early 80's.  Has nothing to do with the Bombers at all (not sold at the stadium AFAIK).  But your plea for Hunters rang(z) my bell.

Maybe they ate too many chips and passed away lol

Curious! Eating plenty of potato chips and chewing lots of bubble gum is how I built both my enviable physique and impressive collection. I could show you but the wretched program here strongly resists pictures.

 Huh

Yeah I would love to see them.  I also have a chip habit.

You should do well with that chip habit. the Winnipeg Blue Bombers won the Grey Cup four out of five years from 1958 to 1962 while devouring cartons of Hunter's Potato Chips. And Bud Grant devoured so many bags he stayed spry and healthy almost to the age of 96!

Very cool collections, Fox.  My kids would go mental there.  I hope you have a kid yourself to pass those down to!

Those newer CFL cards are really nice!  Why aren't they sold anywhere fans would be, like the freakin' stadiums??  Make a zillion packs and sell them for $5 or $10 a pack at IGF.  This isn't rocket science.

My son would probably get way more hyped about the CFL if he could have something to collect and stats to look at.  Kids are still totally into that stuff today, they've just transferred it to stupid pokemon and such instead.  But they still like collecting and learning all the details.

P.S. Built that same P-38 model as a kid, and USS Arizona.  But made the mistake of using them as toys after, and thus they now have major battle damage  Grin

Trying to get the kid into building models (loves cars) but very hard to find retail stores with the kits/supplies these days.

Have to say that is the most impressive card collection I have ever seen.

I love chips also.  But my Dr, says the salt raises my blood pressure.  Why are all good things bad for us?  Glad you boys have fond memories of them.  Enjoy in moderation. Smiley
