Skeeters don't bite bb card packs. I vote for Katrina. :D

Well, I used to chew the bubble gum that came out of Topps packs that were several years old (and I'm still here).

Just how addicted to tobacco would you have to be to consider cracking the case to get at what remains?

:eek:

Yeah, that looks like it was quite literally floating in a basement for a least a few days. The label is even waterlogged.

Not too impressed that the seller makes zero mention of that.

Who knew "crack addict" was a relatively new baseball card phrase?

Not the same seller, but .......

Once the NM seller saw this listing, he increased the price on his NM pack by $600 ............

Or maybe he raised the price, because he realized his listing was now being viewed by the men of Net54 with their deep pockets.:D
