2001 was a great year!
My second story is in 2001 the All Star game came to Seattle. My dad, bless his heart, agreed to buy tickets to the card show that accompanies it as my birthday gift (he bought two days of tickets).....my dad doesn't collect cards, btw..... We went and had a blast getting autographs, buying cards, and hanging out. That year, Fleer Tradition had a Negro Leagues insert set that included relic cards. I pulled a Jackie Robinson pant swatch that I still have. Just the place, the companionship, and the pull make that the best card pull of my life.
I stopped buying packs at the end of high school. Now I just buy singles and get what I want each month.
