Think they picked up the pieces that hit him? Wonder what a killer meteorite goes for?

There is precedent.

Back in the 70's, the Peekskill Meteorite smashed a car.... the largest meteorite fragment sold for 65 grand (which was a lot of money in the 70's).

The smashed car also brought good money at auction, and was recently purchased by a museum.

Too bad he can't reap the reward from his demise.
