For years Teddy Pappas would do the same thing with the ALC sale in Seattle, he would schedule his sale in the same format. I use to try and bribe some of my cohorts to come with me from Seattle to see Western Canadian Sales. I consider myself lucky that I was able to attend a number of Teddy's sales in his old rickety building in Gas Town.
He had without a doubt the nicest collection of arctic wolves.
It was priceless to hear Teddy call out the buyers if he thought they were not paying enough for the marten.
