My early campaign for nominating Kevin Beale (better known as kb) for Rusty Bunch HOF

#1

Post by keithker »

I realize there hasn't been a call out yet for this year's RB HOF candidates but I want to get out on the streets early with my support behind nominating Keven Beal @kb.

He has personally written over 30 Rustlings articles on the tales of his dumping experiences. Pull up some old Rustlings and read about things kb has done in the way of this Chapter and this hobby.

He has a keen instinct when it comes to finding and processing dumps. He knows how to get the best out of a great find.

He is a legend when it comes to dumping in the Adirondacks and New York.

He has a wealth of knowledge and history when it comes to all things Genesee related.

I need a few others (@digger @ANGRY GARY) that have gotten out and turned dirt with kb to tell of his unwavering support to the hobby and fellow RB members.

Thanks.

Never met him but I’d support it.

Also Neil K and Dave Reid need to be added.

Keith , think you had some bad salmon playing with your head .. Thanks and no thanks please .. I don’t do anything but just show up , I am a proud member of RB but again I don’t do anything but show up .. we have way more worthy folks out there, way more ! And yes sadly before there time Neil and Dave are a must ! I’ve been lucky to been a part of some good hunts with good folk who know how to get it done and enjoyed that and that’s that - I’m not even being humble or modest with this , let’s not water down Canton or Cooperstown or wherever we have our RB Shrine .. kb

I am not suggesting Kevin does or does not deserve to be in the Hall of Fame but I definitely, definitely agree Neil and Dave are a must. They each contributed greatly to this hobby but unfortunately left us way too early.
Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.

2023 Shows Attended

* Michigan Chapter Winterfest, January 14, Frankenmuth Michigan
* Cabin Fever Reliever, February 24, Mishawaka Indiana

Neil was inducted posthumously last year. Tom Chegash was also inducted last year.

The HOF listing just hasn't been updated.

Another collector that is highly deserving that we lost this year is Scott Rollert.
I shall leave no cone unturned!!
