    Nice hits. Did you have an audience when ripping? Good luck with the grades.

    Well is was certainly good to hang out with Doug, Mike' Eric n Tim. Great to have finally met Doug n Tim.
    We had a blast opening the racks. Note the use of the steak knife to cut open the racks. I thought Mike was gonna puke when we did that.

    Got nothing from the 77-78-81 racks worth mentioning. The 79 wax tray was terrible. Warped cards and a smell of must that brought out our allergies. And it was FASC--our 2014 group rip. Just goes to show you FASC ain't always the best thing if the case wasn't properly stored for years

    Manny, Manny, Manny. Fool me once.....

    The 76 rack rip was a LOT better than that 69 basketball pack, LOL!

    That '69 pack rip always makes me smile. Manny is having so much fun, regardless of the outcome. It's exactly as it should be.

    Not who we wanted! LOL...

    Actually, some of those commons looked pretty sharp...on the right day, a low pop PSA 9 or 10, and you don't even need a star to break even..

    Anthony, that was awesome. Thanks for sharing. Manny, I'm sorry we didn't get who we wanted, but that was exciting!

  • DboneesqDboneesq Posts: 18,219 ✭✭

    Anthony ... I remember that '69 RIP and often remind Manny of it!

    STAY HEALTHY!

    I always get a kick out of that video. Sending this link to Alex (24 and living in NYC) and Megan (21). They haven't seen it in a while either. I may have to track down those cards and submit them since Eagle eye Timothy thinks they may be worthy. Maybe they were WHO I WAS LOOKING FOR after all

    I"m betting an Alcindor RC. Wish there had been a Bill Russell!
