[QUOTE="Natch, post: 54166, member: 45"] Winslow, I've got a good Chicago Cubs story. I started a couple year research project in Belize in the early 80s, and was told that they liked baseball caps with MLB logos. Going to school in Milwaukee at the time, I got a dozen Milwaukee Brewers caps for barter items. The locals looked at me like I just arrived from planet Zurcon! I just about had to give them away. Turns out the Belize Govt. had gotten some technology development funds from the UN to build a satellite downlink station, and of course, being good entrepreneurs, the first thing they did was hard wire cable throughout Belize City and Belmopan, pirate WGN, and sell it to the locals. Everyone in the country watched the Cubs and Bears, knew every player by name, and could tell you what the wind chill was on any given winter day in Chicago! Next time I took down a bunch of Cubs caps and traded them for just about what ever I needed. Natch [/QUOTE]
