Will the Foreman grill be a valuable, collectible item now?

We still have one of his original rotisseries and we use the hell out of it making turkey breasts all the time. The wife and I are hoping it can make it to the finish line with us. So far, so good. Best appliance we ever bought.

RIP, Big George. He went from a scowling menace to a lovable teddy bear. A great boxer who thrilled us all with that unlikely comeback in his forties and second heavyweight crown. What a character!

He was devout Christian with a remarkable testimony about how coming to Christ changed his life.

“I liked watching him do his later year fights, what a wallop he had.”

I remember Foreman’s last fight. He fought some guy who literally ran from him for ten rounds and the judges handed this runner the win. Could not believe it. They must have given him the win for being a track star.
