Cool I reflect on guys on my block that were bitten by the EF Bug used to.....

buy money orders (late 70's early 80's)for $3-6 and type a $3-5 infront of the number to increse the value and sent them to Tudor games for teams...it worked until they reviewed the MO and would send letters about the MO, by then they would have saved up the proper amount form their allowances ad or cleaning up hair at the local barber shops to give to their parents to cover the fee before the "Federal Charges " letter would arrive flg$ it was funny because they would have to go into the liquer store to purchase the MO, it did not become a major issue until they started using USPS MO.....aka tickets to the FEDs . I laugh now but we didnt know better at age 12-16:rolleyes: we just wanted teams and bases.

They would also order every team from Sears Catalog and back then sears would let you see your stuff......in a private room (I will not incriminate my friends and it is well over 20 years )but many empty boxes were left in the catalog section rooms....go figure:rolleyes:

I am not an advocate for deviant behavior...just refelecting on how far some guys went for some EF stuff when we were kids.
