Thurman Munson’s Pilot License, For Sale on EBAY
Thursday, April 1st, 2010I’m not going to lie. I was indeed looking for the truly sensationalized to post this April Fools Day. What I ended up finding – on my old stand-by for the startling, ebay – is equal parts nostalgic and…heartless?
This is not an April Fools joke.
Those dastardly auctioneers, Memory Lane Inc., are selling Thurman Munson’s pilot license for the buy it now price of $16,500.
OK. Thurman Munson died in a plane crash in 1979, at age 32 as the captain of the Yankees. He was baseball’s Lynyrd Skynyrd.
I’m not so much sickened that someone’s trying to make a buck off this (maybe because of my coarse hatred of the Yankees), but this is pretty atrocious.
