| WLS fan Ken Laughlin of Des Plaines, Illinois sent us this photo of 2 WLS Silver Dollars he won from WLS from Clark Weber's "Say Something Bad about Riley" contest. They still have the stickers that were on them when he won. Does anyone else still have the ones they won from WLS? Ken wonders what the value may be.
