Iconic Memorabilia and Vai Sikahema
Posted by Chris

robinson.jpgLooks like Jeff Woolf, former co-owner of Universal Rarities auction and former partner of Tom Riccio is going to stick with the auction gig.

I would advise Gavel Chat Nation to check out the new auction site, Iconic Memorabilia. Iconic's auction is now live and there are some very obscure items that are, at the very least, fun to look at.

For those of you who might not know who Riccio is, you may have a chance to sit in on the next O.J. Simpson trial (they are struggling to find suitable jury members), because you've obviously been living in a box for the past year.

Riccio is the dude who set up the sting to get some of Simpson's alleged stolen memorabilia back from the man who had the stuff. Riccio taped phone conversations he had with the Juice, and the entire event that took place at the Palace Station Hotel in Las Vegas.

Anyway, other than a few dealings I have had with Mr. Riccio, I have also had a few with Mr. Woolf. All I can say is Woolf has always been very good at customer service and I wish him the best.

SportsFest is in less than two weeks and I'm really hoping to meet some of my Gavel Chat readers. I plan on doing some video interviews with you guys and hopefully we will have a nice turnout.

I will have some fun prizes at our booth and will try to make sure everyone is entertained. If we're lucky T.S. O'Connell with do his patented stand-up comedy act.

By the way... I guess Jose Canseco is turning into a version of Mike Tyson, in more than one way. Some would say Canseco is a little off his rocker already, but now Canseco is doing something a little more Tysonesque and going to be partaking in a boxing match versus former NFLer Vai Sikahema. Click here.

I just put a call into Canseco's marketing agent Bernie Gernay to get the lowdown on what's going in Canseco's mind, and if he really thinks the former Major Leaguer stands a chance against Vai.

Click here to watch Sikahema take out some aggression on a goal post during a pro football game. I wouldn't mess with him.
