I'm not organizing it this year.

Does the "The Lid" still exist? Wasn't there a Derek Bell baseball card as well?

Over the years I think we've collectively decided that with this collection of ne'er-do-wells it's best not to pass around head gear for hygenic purposes.  I'll send a "lid" to the winner.

Never share headgear with TZ friends is a great motto to live by. The first year, I sent the moving gold star lid to AB in Oklahoma. Since she was a sportscaster on the local station in Tulsa, I figured she'd wear it on air. But I never heard if she did or not. That would have been cool.

There was, and there were a couple of other cards that were passed out at an Opening Day lunch at Spanish Flowers a few years back. I have no remembrance of the recipient or if they moved on from there.

I have the autographed card of JA Happ.

Yes! That really made perfect sense to me. I think there was also a Venezuelan card of someone - Marwin? - who’d broken up a no-hitter.
