Tough day at the office - decided to rip

So. I have a 78 football wax pack where the back seal is messy looking. I truly believe it was unopened but don’t think it would grade high if I sent it in and I think I paid 30 bucks for it, some time ago. So I decided to rip it. I usually regret these types of decisions, but not this time. I Got some very nice star power !![](

I cannot hit curveball. Straightball I hit it very much. Curveball, bats are afraid.

    Congrats, pretty amazing star power for one pack! I've had good luck opening 78T FB. Last pack I ripped had a Payton too that ended up in a PSA 9 holder. IIRC, @rexvos has it now ;)

    Mine certainly doesn’t have the same centering. (Beautiful card btw) but very sharp still. Certainly got me in a better mood to start my weekend.

    ripping and a cold one literally go hand in hand for me.

    doesn't feel right w/o it! 😉

    Super cool! That's a good pack. When I was a kid, I would have went crazy for such a rip. :p
