Awesome thanks. Picked up a couple copies of the newspaper this morning but going to add that poster and book to the collection. Dropping all sorts of money this morning but I don’t even care. This is amazing.
Yeah I got the poster too. Will get it framed by someone cuz when I try to frame posters myself it looks like crap.
Yeah. Saw 50 people in line at 11:00 this morning at Academy and said "Nope." Will wear something orange and something Astros to parade tomorrow. Use mlbshop.com. Academy's out of stock online, but most of the stuff is the same and in stock on mlbshop. I went a little overboard, but I'm cool with what I got. Here's a copy-paste of my shopping cart. That just covers Houston, too. I still have my sister and 2-yr-old niece in NJ to get stuff for. Separate order because of separate address, though. Don't forget to save 5 whole dollars with the code "30FS" to get free shipping when you inevitably spend over $30. 2 2962430 Men's Houston Astros Majestic Heather Gray 2017 World Series Champions Locker Room T-Shirt M $27.99 $55.98 1 2962430 Men's Houston Astros Majestic Heather Gray 2017 World Series Champions Locker Room T-Shirt S $27.99 $27.99 1 2962430 Men's Houston Astros Majestic Heather Gray 2017 World Series Champions Locker Room T-Shirt XL $27.99 $27.99 3 2965141 Men's Houston Astros New Era Graphite 2017 World Series Champions Locker Room 39THIRTY Flex Hat OSFM $31.99 $95.97 1 2965150 Men's Houston Astros New Era Graphite 2017 World Series Champions Locker Room Knit Hat OSFA $27.99 $27.99 1 2963583 Houston Astros WinCraft 2017 World Series Champions 12" x 30 On-Field Celebration Premium Pennant N/A $10.99 $10.99 1 2963113 Houston Astros 2017 World Series Champions Resin Trophy Ornament N/A $11.99 $11.99 1 2963763 Men's Houston Astros Stance 2017 World Series Champions Crew Socks L $19.99 $19.99 2 2963182 Houston Astros 2017 World Series Champions Bottle Opener Key Ring N/A $2.99 $5.98 2 2963553 Houston Astros WinCraft 2017 World Series Champions 12oz.

Astros' George Springer wins World Series MVP after setting records vs. Dodgers I do not get why Academy is not selling the swap online, even if it has to back order it. I ended up using Dick's and got
Dick's in Pearland had plenty of orange gear around noon. Only issue was it took 1.5 hours to check out once you picked your stuff. But they had TONS of inventory. Anyone know where I can find that new SI cover? The remake of the 2014 one noting we won?
I bought online. Stopped by Dick's just to see if I could get some shirts to wear in the meantime, but it looked like at least an hour to check out. Had to get back to work. I'll probably hold off now until the prices go down, then may do a little more. Did pick up some stuff from the Chron to get framed though too. Could be good Christmas gifts.
Driving down this afternoon for the parade and to load up on WS gear, but I'm ordering one of these too:
Thoughts on this 8 disc set? http://www.si.fanatics.com/MLB_Hous..._World_Series_Champions_Blu-Ray_Collector_Set
We had Clutch City, then Double Clutch... I wonder what the official doc on this championship is going to be called?
I left the house about 10 min after the final out (and losing most of my voice in the process) to get to Dicks and find the line about half a mile long.. I was drunk as piss, stood in line for about 3 hours, got in the store after 2 AM and dropped almost $400 on shirts, hats, mugs, pint glasses, tumblers, pennants, you name it. Woke up this morning to a sea of astros gear everywhere. Well ****in worth it!!!!
2 hat, sweat hoodie. Would be funny if SI just reprints the same cover, but updates the soccer headline buried in the upper right.
Is that literally just the cover? Not the entire magazine? I heard that issue is reselling for hundreds
