A truly sad day for players. If any of y'all live in the J'ville area, would you please give this cat a call. He's excited to have so many Casket Squares in his house, but to put a player in one????? Aren't you supposed to tip these puppies up on end, hang doors on them and call them gun cabinets?? I think I need to ralph. Pass the pail please.
