Collector's Item for a Lucky Yankees Fan

This beauty is up for sale at Grey Flannel Auctions right now, so if you have a couple grand lying around it could be yours. According to Deadspin, if you caught Mantle when he was hungover or still drunk from the night before he would write pretty much anything you asked him to on whatever you asked him to write it on. How about 'Lou Gehrig had it coming' or 'Elston Howard is a rascist?' No? 'Roger Maris is a pussy?' Still no? I'm just not funny today. Oh well.
Unfortunately, the only way you can get him to sign a ball now is to wear a Red Sox jersey to a Yankees game, in which case you deserve to die. So go ahead. I think the world just might be a better place with a few less Sox fans crawling on it.
