Can your cub cadet series 1000 mow in reverse?

Yes. I have a LTX1040 and if you turn the ignition key to the "caution" setting then push an orange triangle button, you can mow in reverse. It's a nice feature b/c it "Remembers" you acknowledged reverse mowing unlike my John Deere for which you need to push the button each time you go in reverse. With the CC, once you push the button, you can go forward then backwards as many times as necessary until you turn off the tractor (or turn the key).

Special events such as opening day, inaugural games, last game at a Stadium, play-offs, World Series, etc. Player milestones can include 500 home runs, 300 win, or any record breaking event.

There is a large community of collectors that collect tickets stubs of baseball games when a noted player hits a Home Run. Record breaking Players such as Mantle, Mays Aaron, and now players like Alex Rodriguez who have a shot at hitting 500, 600 home runs or more. Tickets/stubs from these games are very desirable, and will bring top dollar if a collector needs this ticket to complete their set.

A ticket stub from the game he hit his 182nd HR sold for $75 on eBay. For more information on vintage baseball ticket stubs visit the link I left below.
