Mike:

Got your phone message. Sorry I didn't hear it. I am up at Bushnell for three days doing a couple seminars and working my vendors booth.

I have seen all kinds of crap used for slide toppers but never Spalding. That is hilarious. I am guessing it is one of his rigs he is selling and just wants out of it cheap. he probably used his wifes 50 % off coupon at Joann's and bought the fabric.

I will try and give you a call when I get a break in the action up here. Thanks for the post. You made my day. :)

Chris
