For example, the supposed NASA test capsule, has no NASA markings whatsoever and no proof of it’s origin. Historian expert Mark (Pawn Stars “beard of knowledge”), explain that replicas were made, but Lonnie refused to believe the facts. It was clear that Lonnie was not playing with a full deck; he had grandiose ideas about himself, like being the most interesting human to live.

I felt so sorry for his wife. As of the taping of the show, they were in $750,000 in debt and potentially about to lose of their three homes (bought side-by-side to expand his hoard). Understandably, they are no longer rich. Lonnie was only able to make about $4,100 during an auction he thought would net him MUCH more. He claims to have spent $10 million on his stuff, but the actual value is just a fraction of that amount. Lonnie has serious “hoarder” delusions about his junk, while his wife was very realistic…she teared up more than once. Like a typical hoarder, Lonnie was picking the stuff over the happiness of his wife that he claims to love.

Lonnie is a true Nevadan, and he is The Man.

Never heard of Hammeragren or his collection. He may be a horder but in this case he hordes something worthwhile. Must be a massive piece of property to store all this. Would love to check it out isomeday. Unfortunately only open for 2 days. Thanks for the great photos. This place may be better than the neon museum
.
