I have a story about a card only in reverse of yours. 1974 Topps baseball Winston Llenas was his name. It seemed every time I opened a pack of cards, I would get a frickin' Llenas card. It was nuts how many of them I had 20+ last time I counted. It could not have been some other loser like Jackson, or Rose, or Bench or any other players of their ilk. Nope good ole' Winston and me.

Makes me laugh every time I see him in that set.
