"I collec' music," Lennox Garnett explains. "Ol' tracks, classics, yuh know? Limited press, special release, white label remix. All dem ting deh. Vinyl, 8 track, cassette, CD, whatever format mi can get it." He opens a cabinet in his penthouse, revealing several crates of vinyl records, boxes of tapes and CDs, and even some sheet music.
Seeing the confusion etched on my face, he grins. "Oh yuh see di sheet dem? A Clinton Balinfainte piece dem. Handwritten compositions." I confess that I've never heard of the name, and Lennox looks exasperated. "Unu people all know 'bout yuh Mozart and yuh Beethoven an' all di dead old white man dem, but nun neva badda learn 'bout di bredda dem who a mek fine music. Unu feel seh Jamaican man dem can only mek reggae ar bashment, when wi come wid classical music in our own style unu fi disregard an' ack like seh wi nuh know how fi mek it. Mi a guh learn yuh today bredrin."
He fumbles in one of the boxes in the cabinet for a moment before removing a record. "See dis one ya suh? Dis one a mi favourite." He places it on the turntable and drops the needle carefully...

I'm a sucker for collecting coins - state quarters, national park quarters, presidential dollars, etc. At home, I have a book full of all 50 state quarters, although I don't have all 50 from both of the US mints (Philly and Denver). But there was one situation where I was too lazy to collect quarters - and my own professor capitalized.
I was running into my lab class that day a little tired but also a little early, so I decided that the best way to remedy the situation was to go to the basement and grab some candy from the vending machine. Lo and behold when I arrive there, I only have a $20 bill on me. The Twix bar I was going to get was $1.25 (what a ripoff amirite), but I was hungry and needed something to keep me awake so I went and got it.
I then realized my mistake when the vending machine started pooping out quarters like there was no tomorrow. I made my way upstairs with a Twix bar in my pocket and somewhere around $10 in dollar coins and the rest in quarters - many of which were presidential or state quarters. My professor noticed this and decided to take them off my hands by swapping a $20 for all of them - meaning my candy was free! It ended up being a double win for me because I didn't even need most of those quarters, as I already had them. I'll find my share of presidential dollars again one day though.

When Lucari was younger he used to collect pogs. He used to have a nice collection of pogs that numbered over 500. It was interesting since he some pretty rare pogs that no one else seemed to have and it was cool when he busted out his collection to show it off. He loved playing and collecting and trading with his friends and it was hugely popular in school. They would all sit around a couple of lunch tables and hold tournaments. Lucari lost a few of his favorite pogs, but he won quite a few of the tournaments that he eventually won back his favorite ones and some other peoples favorite ones. His collection seemed to keep growing and he was beyond excited when he won a tournament. Every time he came home with a new one, he would show it to his mother and she would play along like it was the coolest thing in the world. She knew how happy it made him and he never caught on that she was just trying to make her son happy. He still has his pog collection to this day and he keeps it safe and every so often he breaks them out to reminisce upon the old days.

Tijuana Luchadores cornerback Hike Mughes is an avid football card collector. He has always been a huge fan of the NFL, ever since he was a kid. He loved collecting cards especially for his favorite team, the Minnesota Vikings. When Mughes was young, one of his favorite players to look forward to was QB/WR Joe Webb, who started a few games for the Vikings. Compared to the likes of Christian Ponder and Matt Cassel, Joe Webb seemed like a promising young player. On top of that, Mughes had collected Webb's rookie card that had him listed as a wide receiver, so Mughes was really hoping Webb would pan out. Of course, Joe Webb ended up having a very below average career as a quarterback, but it was a card Mughes loved having as a kid. On top of that, he had cards of players like Brett Favre while he was on the Vikings, Randy Moss, Sidney Rice, Adrian Peterson, Percy Harvin, Visanthe Shiancoe, and more. He also collected baseball cards, and one of the best cards he had was a Roberto Clemente card honoring his death. Not being as big of a baseball fan, Mughes was able to trade this card to a friend of his for multiple Vikings player cards which was definitely worth it to Mughes, as the Vikings meant a lot more to him than Roberto Clemente did.

Roman didn't collect the typical sports cards like many other kids his age. He just didn't see the point in trying to collect all those cards. He has always been known for having a big appetite and he always seemed hungry. Growing up, he loved collected menus from all the places he went to as a child and he would make small notes here and there like who he was with and what he had that day and time to commemorate special occasions. He had quite the collection of menus and he would keep the most memorable ones whether it was good or bad. He would even collect menus from His most favorite one is from a local pizza place called Mama Cecilia where he went to a lot as a kid. He collected many menus from this place, but his most favorite one was the last one he got since it was the last meal he had with his older brother before he went to join the Canadian Armed Forces. They both put down a whole large pizza each along with garlic knots and some salad (for health reasons of course). It was special because it was the last time he was able to see his brother before he passed away in combat

Ryan Applehort loved collecting soda cans when he was growing up. This was because he had nothing to do in his spare time. You see, the young sap, living in Texas, loved soda. Soda was a premium in the hot, long summers in Texas. He collected all types of sodas, such as Cola, Pepsi, Sprite, Mello Yellow, Mist, and others. He really loved doing this because he thought it would be cool, trying to collect one of each type of can, from all across the world. Some soda cans in his collection were in Chinese text, others were winter specials. Nonetheless, Ryan prided himself on being a master collector of soda cans, and he made sure not to throw them out every time he had a drink. To this day, Ryan still keeps around him the collection. He found it especially easy to do this and it took a bit of the fun out of it, when he realized he had millions of dollars at his disposal to buy whichever cans he liked. So nowadays, he tries finding soda cans that are uncommon and from a long time ago. This way, he keeps finding original material, which keeps the hobby fresh for him.

Angus Winchester's favorite thing to collect is jerseys from other players on other teams. It isn't a competitive thing where he takes the jersey from a team he beat really badly and adds to a shrine or anything, just a fun gesture of respect between two players to swap game jerseys after a good game. Angus has them all framed and hanging up in his trophy room basement that is a shrine to his football playing life. He has jerseys from some of the best players to play the game of simulation football like King Bronko, Dan Miller, Jaylon Lee, Matt Akselsen, and plenty others.
He has one wall that is dedicated entirely to the Ultimus games, of whihc Angus has played in four, and the jerseys of the players he swapped with for those games. Angus actually traded his own three Championship game jerseys for players in each of the games. When he beat the Wraiths in S4 he got the jersey of QB Matt Akselsen. In S5 he got the jersey from Dermot Lavelle. In S6 he got it from Paul Dimiro. In S7 he got it from Tyler Oles. Angus is hoping that he can get another Ultimus jersey this season from a Hawks player like Trey Willie, Avon Blocksdale, or Owen Taylor. That would look really nice on his wall next to a S11 Ultimus trophy.
