Trophies for dead people
Posted on 07/12/2006 in misc
One of the trophies for my little league team was damaged, so I asked Crown Awards to send a replacement. They did, but they sent a girl baseball trophy. So I called again and had a replacement for the replacement sent.
It arrived today. But instead of 2006 Major League Braves, Spotsylvania VA as the engraving, it said Bonnie Joudrey, 1916-2006.
Who the hell is ordering a trophy for a dead person?
I was able to pry the engraving plate off the girl trophy and put it on the trophy that came today, so I do have a complete and correct trophy for the kid now.
But I'm still trying to wrap my head around what you could possibly order from Crown Awards for a dead person.
