The beloved Air Jordan, sheduled to enshrine into to the Hall of Fame September 10-12, 2009, instantly turns absolutely anything into “priceless” with his name on it. Came up at our nearby Vons in suburbia, on my weekly household grocery run, and there I caught myself unstacking loads of Gatorade from the others with Mike’s imprint, and looking more of a goof throwing in the vendor’s advertising poster hoping the Vons cashier wouldn’t mind if I politely asked. They probably gave me the poster for already looking like a goof.

Not cool enough to receive 1 of the 23 Gatorade coolers made and designed to celebrate these collectors bottles… but was creative enough to utilize the 12-bottle MJ cardboard carton to accompany the Hall of Fame poster. We really think we made something out of absolutely nothing, spending a Vons Club price of $0.88 a bottle, a whopping $10.56 spent for this complete setup. Gatorade’s website also include descriptive detail of their limited bottles. Now here’s the question: Waste of space? or.. Come up?

Daily Check-up: eBay sold 6 complete without any box for $47 shipped, another for $37 shipped… yikes.

Hmm… where can I store these guys?

UPDATE: Vons Club price as of 9/4/2009, but no more cartons… $0.68!!
