With the release of the 2024 season on APBA GO on Friday afternoon, there are new kids on the block. And some of them look pretty spiffy.
In case you missed it, the current season has been released on APBA GO. I know some cards and dice APBA fans wait until the cards come out (which will be in January) and others spring for the $20 just to see what the upcoming cards will look like.
On Friday, I got a chance to play our commissioner, Mike Bunch for our November series. I like going to Mike’s house because that was the location of my first introduction of league APBA.
I wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving holiday!
Enjoy your turkey…

On Saturday, I got on a Skype call with my buddy Brando who lives in Montana. Brando is in our APBA league and is a long time friend of mine.
