You guys must have missed the fake money at a bowling alley update

The rods I used most last year were:
Sage TCR 690/4
Sage RPL 690/2
Original loomis GLX 1086/2
Scott G 906/2 (old school w/ cork cap and ring reel seat)
The scott is the oldest and the TCR is the newest. All are pretty old.
I'd pay 7500 a year to liberate a homeless person. I remember Sally Struthers said you could feed a hungry kid for like a buck a day too. I'd round up to 8000 and kill two birds with one stone.
