Have you seen me?? I am that scary guy that gives baseball collectors bad name. That's right, I am the pack searcher. I personally like to feel up 2011 Allen and Ginter Packs at Targets in Maryland.

Caught this guy at my Target man handling all the new 2011 Allen & Ginter packs. When my son asked why we werent going to get any cards today, I told him, "Cause that sad man is feeling up all the packs and searching for the hits." My son, 6 years old mind you, looks up and says, "Why doesnt he just buy the pack like everyone else? It is more exciting when you get surprised." Needless to say the guy didnt like me, and my son got a Wrestler instead of some cards. Just had to share.

I think we need a sticky that has photos of people pack searching. We could call it something like "Caressing Cardboard".

Should have run him over with his own buggy.

I really should have, but my son was already in a good mood from just leaving the Harrisburg Senators vs Bowie Baysox game, where we were able to get a Bryce Harper auto on the picture his mom made him.

Actually taking a picture of someone and posting it on the internet is actually against the law. It is a form of invasion of privacy act that was just implemented a few years ago and could result in a lawsuit. Although i agree with you and i'm glad you put a face to the person i think you may have put yourself in a situation that could get you in trouble:
