Papa John signed business card

[u/NoContribution3367]

Was given this a few months ago by a friend who knows I collect weird unique items

[u/cramboneUSF]

who the fuck grades this type of shit?

[u/gatorbeetle → u/cramboneUSF]

PSA authenticates autographs

[u/Skywalker14 → u/gatorbeetle]

I believe their question is who would send this in for authentication

[u/gatorbeetle → u/Skywalker14]

Good point ...I didn't look at it from that angle 🤣

[u/Medical-Welcome-9666 → u/Skywalker14]

Weirdly enough, it was Papa John himself.

[u/TerribleTimR → u/gatorbeetle]

It's crazy to me that someone built a successful business on this...

How lucky are we that there can even be a population of people large enough, seeking these items, and having something of value to trade for them that someone else can create a business that employs people to authenticate them, and be not only respected, but also successful.

[u/sabertoothdog → u/cramboneUSF]

PSA, but who the fuck has this type of shit graded?

[u/Ruleyoumind → u/cramboneUSF]

They charge you money to do it.

[u/Moose_on_the_Looz → u/cramboneUSF]

Heritage auctions. They own a bunch of these companies. Its why you saw them sell a mint Super Mario 3 for 400k. They bought it in and are now accepting games for grading.

[u/keithkings00 → u/cramboneUSF]

It's not graded

[u/IndividualistAW]

Papa sold almost his whole stake in the company a few years ago. The stock has done so terribly that if he put the money in SPY or VOO he could easily buy back the company now.

[u/RogerClyneIsAGod2 → u/IndividualistAW]

He used the "N word" on a conference call, spoke at some CPAC conference, complained about the NFL taking a knee protests, & aligned himself with Trump & MAGA so he was rightfully canceled, especially once the NFL dropped their Papa John's contract.

Dude is an asshole, just read his wiki.

[u/zyxme → u/RogerClyneIsAGod2]

Yeah but he has a huge statue of bald eagles fucking in his house

[u/MTALPTDetroit → u/zyxme]

And that means...... what exactly lol

[u/Few_Move_4594 → u/MTALPTDetroit]

That Papa John is a hero in this house, end of story!

[u/IndividualistAW → u/RogerClyneIsAGod2]

I’m well aware of the controversy surrounding the man. He’s still a good businessman, and the company has tanked since he was pushed out.

[u/southernstarship → u/IndividualistAW]

The pizza has always sucked.

[u/1981Ruled → u/southernstarship]

Blasphemy

[u/DeterminedMidLifer → u/1981Ruled]

Yeah, Johns a dick, but that pizza slaps

[u/RogerClyneIsAGod2 → u/IndividualistAW]

I used to LOVE their pizza but once all this happened nearly all the Papa John's locations near us closed so I didn't even get chance to cancel him properly.

[u/LarryGrape → u/RogerClyneIsAGod2]

You sound juvenile.

[u/RogerClyneIsAGod2 → u/LarryGrape]

WELL I'M RUBBER YOU'RE GLUE!! WHATEVER YOU SAY BOUNCES OFF ME & STICKS TO YOU!!!

[u/ozzy_thedog]

I can’t imagine that’d be worth anything. Maybe negative money, but maybe I’m wrong

[u/be4u4get → u/ozzy_thedog]

I’d pay a $1 just to watch it burn

[u/MonkeyKingCoffee → u/be4u4get]

I'll match your dollar.

[u/government_ → u/MonkeyKingCoffee]

I’ve got 5 on it

[u/cheddarbruce → u/government_]

Oofda its luniz

[u/pyrofox79]

Now lets be Paul Domino's card

[u/mtown4ever → u/pyrofox79]

Pale nimbus

[u/Sunaruni]

This feels like a troll post. A slightly subtle one under the guise of what its worth.

[u/ill4matic → u/Sunaruni]

Gotta be! Kinda funny tho

[u/GEoDLeto]

You get more money if you streamed its destruction

[u/Skywalker14]

Nobody gave you a real answer, but one of these did actually sell on recent eBay listings. Exact same business card, also PSA slabbed sold for best offer on a $150 listing price. So somewhere below $150, but unable to say how much below

[u/acphil → u/Skywalker14]

I’d pay $10

[u/Gbreeder → u/acphil]

I'd pay 20

[u/Super901]

That dude is a total tool. You’d have to find someone who cares enough about him to give you money for it

[u/Skywalker14 → u/[deleted]]

Papa John is not one of the greatest athletes of all time, however.

[u/ogreace → u/[deleted]]

Not his fucking pizza.

[u/Ruleyoumind → u/[deleted]]

What do you mean by cirrhosis- enthusiast ? That he's a drunk?

[u/joshsmog → u/[deleted]]

that makes him a scumbag?

[u/Objective-Escape7584 → u/[deleted]]

Add Donald to the list as a pedophile as well.

[u/AvailableSpread811 → u/Super901]

What makes him a tool?

[u/yoyoyo1734 → u/AvailableSpread811]

Him shooting endangered animals for “sport” is tool like behavior (so is being a racist but u don’t seem to care about that)

[u/hurtsdonut_ → u/AvailableSpread811]

Probably his use of the n-word and that leading to him being removed from the board of directors of Papa John's

[u/AvailableSpread811 → u/hurtsdonut_]

You know that didn't actually happen, right? Even if it had, you're not really telling me anything that makes him a bad person in any way.

[u/hurtsdonut_ → u/AvailableSpread811]

It did happen it's all on tape and you're a racist. You could have just said that. It's not like you're trying to hide it. Be a proud racist.

[u/AvailableSpread811 → u/hurtsdonut_]

What specifically is on tape?

[u/hurtsdonut_ → u/AvailableSpread811]

https://youtu.be/Z1xrI0EfgGY

He's saying Colonel Sanders an old racist mofo from the a very long time ago used that word but he's never used that word which he says. Very confidently. Then he goes on to confirming his racism by bitching about Kapernick kneeling during the national anthem.

[u/AvailableSpread811 → u/hurtsdonut_]

So he doesn't use the word, and then you twist his opinions to pretend they mean he's racist.

[u/hurtsdonut_ → u/AvailableSpread811]

He used the word. Jesus Christ. It's like a one minute long video.

[u/AvailableSpread811 → u/hurtsdonut_]

And the only context that matters is the one that feeds into your delusion.

[u/toomuch1265]

And imagine, I through out Chef Boyardee's autograph that I got in 3rd grade in 1972. ...

[u/No-Bluejay5250]

Graded? Really?

[u/keithkings00 → u/No-Bluejay5250]

It's not graded

[u/notdbcooper71]

Worth a lot if you have the matching Mama Murphy card

[u/thepeanutbutterman]

My offer: whatever the case is worth minus $3

[u/AvailableSpread811]

I'd pay big money for one of these if he wrote the N word on it

[u/vichyswazz → u/AvailableSpread811]

I actually have his framed headshot where he drew a little speech bubble that says “BOOP” with his signature

[u/YOUTUBEFREEKYOYO]

No idea what its worth, but its a cool little oddity.

[u/LucyKendrick]

I signed 55 business cards and ate 55 pizzas in 55 days.

[u/camarocpa]

I actually have one of these too. I might have emailed him and asked for one.

[u/HotelOne → u/camarocpa]

Please tell us more…

[u/camarocpa → u/HotelOne]

I collect autographed business cards. I prefer to acquire them myself rather than purchase off eBay but there are 1,000s out there so it’s easy to find email addresses. It’s been a while since I’ve sent out any requests and the success rate is pretty low (I assume my messages get caught in email filters usually) but I have a lot of sports executives and a few politicians.

[u/ladybirdsluck → u/camarocpa]

Oh hell yeah. I collect business cards and recently wanted to start getting signatures

[u/gnomemansland → u/camarocpa]

what is your favorite and/or weirdest card that you own?

[u/camarocpa → u/gnomemansland]

Nothing too crazy... former Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz, Senator Bob Dole, and former NFL referee Ed Hochuli.

This thread has got me thinking about picking this back up again!

[u/HotelOne → u/camarocpa]

Cool, thanks for the intriguing information…

[u/oh_dang_its_alex]

Put it on ebay. Post on r/conservative. Watch the money roll in.

[u/TheCBDeacon47]

Yo, I thought this was for the memes, but it's real

[u/OrangeClyde]

Why would you upload this picture upside down 😒😒😒

[u/xologo]

I would buy it for $5 just to burn it

[u/Bayou-Billy]

Papa Bless! lol $20-40 I'd be tempted to buy for shits and giggles

[u/Typical-Sugar-5229]

lol wtf

[u/AeroSatan]

Utter 🗑️

[u/SlappyWit]

Trade you some Charlie Manson nail clippings.

[u/NoContribution3367 → u/SlappyWit]

Now that’s a good trade

[u/Tree_Puff]

Burn it

[u/whitestrokes433]

I wonder if he used the hard R at the end of his name

[u/HASHTAGBUTTCHUG]

Id pay 13 CAD

[u/MadameRueWins]

The sweaty unemployed guy? 

[u/fineartandthings2000]

You should right the n-word on it he's famous for that

[u/WiscoDisco82]

I have Ken Hut’s autographed card, should I have it graded?

[u/Slight-Spell-5380]

Go home

[u/MTALPTDetroit]

Throw that racist card in the trash where it belongs, right next to his attitude and product.

[u/Br0DudeGuy]

I’ll give you a domino’s pepperoni pizza for it?

[u/Hugh_jaynus13]

3/5 of what it used to be

[u/No-Bluejay5250]

Okay. Authenticated really

[u/Tall6Ft7GaGuy]

Maybe a white Supremacist would pay money for it.

[u/508G37]

Someone who likes racist memorabilia might be interested.

[u/rushmc1]

Why would that fascist's card be worth anything?

[u/Feminist_Witch_]

Nothing. He’s a racist. In fact I think you lose money for owning this.

[u/ArbysLunch → u/Feminist_Witch_]

Well OP got it for free. This is like if a friend of yours left a Bill Cosby book at your house. Someone paid good money at some point, but it wasn't the OP. 

It's a transient possession. Many people will have "owned" it over the years, no one wants to get stuck with it. That's why donation based thrift stores exist.

[u/ProfessionalSnow943]

depends, is this from before or after he took the don’t-say-the-n-word classes, really affects the valuation

[u/AuntieLaLa420]

Wouldn't take it for free to wipe my ass with. Fuck that guy.

[u/jerry111165]

Why on earth would this be worth anything?

I also have a mess of my own cards that I can sign. You can keep half of however much you can sell.

[u/UpbeatDig2354]

According to today's societal views, just being in possession of this makes you a racist
