CATOOSA, Oklahoma -- From family heirlooms to garage sale buys, Green Country residents brought their valuables to the Hard Rock Casino Saturday to the Pawn Stars roadshow.
Cable network stars Rick and Corey Harrison and Austin "Chumlee" Russell brought expertise - and more - to purchase items for their Las Vegas pawn shop.
"It's sort of like Antiques Roadshow except we bring cash," Rick Harrison said.
Harrison has been in the pawn shop business for 30 years, and his vocation turned into a reality TV show in 2009. The show is now in its fourth season and is one of the top rated shows on television.
"It's a little overwhelming at times," Harrison said. "It was sort of a whirlwind."
Harrison said he has collected everything from Japanese erotic art to items off the Titanic.
His favorites? Sports collectibles like Super Bowl rings. He said he has about 100 sports ring in his collection.
"You can't keep everything, cause if I did I'd be broke," he said.
