Fan Pack: SCL Tigers

I was beginning to wonder if we'd ever receive another fan pack in the mail when one arrived earlier this week from the SCL Tigers of the Swiss National League A. In it were three players autographed player cards, including this one by Michel Zeiter.

Besides an introductory letter in German, there were also cards of Alan Tallarini and Jeff Toms.

The best thing about this fan pack? It allows me to teach Colin a little geography, showing him that hockey is played across the world, just not North America.

Here's my report:

Team: SCL Tigers
Date sent: Aug. 15
Date received: Sept. 22
Elapsed time: 38 days
Items received: three signed player cards: Alan Tallarini, Jeff Toms and Michel Zeiter

that's odd you haven't gotten more of these back yet. I sent out requests on August 19th and I have already received packs from Vancouver, Minnesota, Buffalo, and Montreal

Probably something I screwed up.

What did you get from Minnesota, Buffalo and Montreal?

Minnesota sent a 3x10 Pre-printed Gaborik auto card

Buffalo sent a team logo sticker and temp tatoo as well as a Derek Roy magnet

Montreal sent a team logo sticker as well as team issued cards for: Price, Kovalev, Koivu, A.Kostitsyn, Gorges, Kostopolous, O'Byrne, Markov, Higgins, Smolinski, Komisarek as well as a mini team photo

I may try them again, individually rather than a mass e-mailing.
