For me, personally, that would be an awesome selling-point. But I honestly wonder if recruits born in the 2000s will have any real concept of the magnitude of Aaron's achievement. My parents were at the #715 game. In terms of individual accomplishment, in terms of baseball history, and in terms of national media coverage, it was a Very Big Deal. But it was also a long long time ago

Recruits??? HOW about club seat buying 50 year Olds?

Heh. Now you're talking.

Although I'm still on the sunny side of 50 for a little while longer

Lol
Me too.not much longer. But yeah planning any project based on the changing whims of 17 year olds is a recipe for disaster.
