I always wondered what happened to the fat guy from Beetlejuice. Glad to see he got himself a new gig.

What makes that watch worth so much is that he has every piece of it from the purchase...that's the interesting part and differentiates it from any other of that model Rolex.

Kinda looks like he's farting in the dude sitting at the table's face. And it kinda looks like the dude sort of likes it.

This guy had a First Phase Navajo blanket hanging on the back of his recliner.

I'm sure Rick would be willing to give him $15,000 for it. He has to have it inspected and cleaned up, put it in a case, have people at his store, take all the risk, etc.

He gave a whopping $120 for it on the recommendation from his Sergeant before coming back home from Germany.
