My Own 75 Mini Case Break

I bought this case from Steve back in the fall. Steve can verify this, of course. Anyway, I sent the entire case to GAI to grade the packs. I sent it to a friend of mine who knows absolutely nothing about cards and she walked it into their HQ. That's going to be a whole other topic later. I set a minimum of 8. Anyone want to venture a guess as to how many were graded 8 or higher? There's 576 packs in a case, btw.
I'll give you until Sunday evening, 9PM PST and whomever comes closest, I'll send a free pack......In case of a tie, tell me how many in each grade from 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5 and 10. I'll figure out a tie breaker if I have to.
Now I am struggling with what to do with the remaining raw packs. Any ideas? I am tempted to rip since I collect minis but I honestly am having a hard time for some reason.

I'm dying to hear the story behind the case being brought into GAI HQ by your friend. That ought to be good!

My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

I doubt he wrote that to throw you off the trail. I'll refrain from guessing myself b/c of my low post count.
