Day 12 - Closing Ceremonies and Schwag Trading

 
 
With the competition over, we returned to our hotel, got some lunch and relaxed for the afternoon.  At 7:45, we headed to Hebraica with bags of gear that we were hoping to pawn off on the unsuspecting in exchange for choice jerseys, warm-up suits and anything else we could barter for. The names of the legendary traders were acknowledged including Briefs, Parksy, Kronick and Cohen. The newcomers including Zweiback, Mogul, Silverman, Pollack, Lorry, Bailey Moshal and Heather Alhadeff as well as the seasoned veterans Glancy, Fishel, me, David Alhadeff and Wiznewitz had been eagerly awaiting this moment. By the end, there were some monumental acquisitions with the USA boys definitely getting the best of their inexperienced adversaries. We are not quite sure whether there was even a closing ceremonies as most of us didn't make it past the uniform flea market. A great time was had by all.
