What's up, Challenge Baniacs? Scott here to wish you a very happy Thanksgiving and to remind you that we are returning to the big room at City Winery, New York City on Friday, January 23rd.

Boy, do we have an exciting list of guests to announce? If you haven't heard it yet, Mark Long, Westen Bergman, Michelle Fitzgerald, and Carr Maria Sorbelo

will all be in the house. And as you know, we will have a ton of additional guests and surprises, as we always do in New York City. You can already get tickets at challenge mania. Live. So stop what you're doing right now and go and get them. No pre-sale, no password. They're already on sale. they have been for a few days. There are still some VIP meet and greet tickets left. And boy,

are you going to want to be part of this meeting greet? Because just announced, that's right. They just dropped the checklist so I can formally announce this. Tops Allen and Ginter, that awesome line of cards that drops every single year in the fall and winter is dropping next week. I believe it is December the 3rd. Last year, we had C.T. and Derek in the line. Well, guess what? This year, all four of those people I just named are getting official Tops cards. Mark Long, who already got one earlier this year, he got his first pitch card, but now he's getting a Ginter card. Also, Westenbergman, Michelle Fitzgerald, and Carr Maria Sorbelo. For Bello, I believe they all have relic cards as well, which will have patches or pieces of their jersey or other forms of wardrobe that they submitted to tops.

You have over a month to get those, whether you buy the boxes, the packs, just go on eBay and grab singles, bring them to the meet and greet.

They will sign them.

That show on January 23rd is meant to highlight and celebrate them being in this awesome line of cards. We're going to talk about it on stage. Also in this line, I had no idea about this. Jamie Chung is getting a card as well. Survivor winner Ethan Zon to and tons of awesome celebrities like Brian Cranston, Al Pacino, Larry David. It is loaded with celebs, Drewski.

Go and pick up Alan and Ginter.

You can pre-order it now and it'll drop on your door on December 3rd or go start looking

for it in the card shops beginning on the 3rd.

But more importantly than that, go to challenge mania.

Live.

Get your tickets.

It's our first New York City show of 2006.

Hopefully not our last, but it is certainly our first.

Turns out now it's our first show of the year.

So celebrate ringing in the new year with us at City Winery on Friday, January 23rd.

Pick up your boxes at Ginter starting next week.

Happy Thanksgiving and let's see you in New York City on January 23rd.
