I rarely ever buy these because most of the cards are duplicates for me...but my brother got me one recently where I ended up pulling a jersey SN to 100. Only time I've ever seen any SN cards come out of a repack.
ReplyDeleteOnly 4 of these cards would have been new to me...that's why I rarely buy them.
By the way, that Sharone Wright Stadium Club card is his 1994-95 base card, not 1995-96.
I remember buying a lot of Big Mac value meals to get those McDonalds cards.
ReplyDeleteAaron Gordon was the deserving winner of this year's slam dunk contest, though he technically finished second for what it's worth.
What was the pack?
