genuine lookalike World Series 2008 ring
Plural: Unknown
This is a spectacularly large ring made out of red gold, with a black stone in the center. It's got an engraving on the inside that reads: "Philadelphia - Tampa Bay - 2008." Whatever that's all about. As your Scottish uncle used to say, "If it's not Twilight, it's crap!" (He did emigrate penniless from Scotland to Twilight and make his fortune here, so you can't argue with his logic.)

Was the final reward for getting all 27 "outs" during the Frank's Ballpark one-day event.
References
- Most obviously, this is a reference to baseball's World Series in general, and the 2008 World Series specifically. The match up for the 2008 Series was decided the day before the Frank's Ballpark event, and is indeed between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Tampa Bay Rays.
- The line about "your Scottish uncle" is a reference to an old SNL skit starring Mike Myers where he played a crotchety old Scottish store clerk who would often shout "If it's not Scottish, it's CRAP!"
