I expect delivery in a week. I'm going to wear it as a nightshirt.

Already been interviewed three times this morning on this. I'm shocked and not shocked -- someone who has an abundance of money and a strong desire to own the only one of something has no ceiling on what he or she will pay.
I hope it goes out on tour or is lent to the Hockey Hall of Fame.
