well, I have a box of 2012 Crown Royale (and some packs) coming within the week, so I stopped by Wally World and picked up one of my favorite retail boxes, the 14.98 Topps Football box that contains 5 packs plus a Platinum hobby pack and a Griffin refractor. Went to Kmart, which I hardly ever do, and who should I see at the card section but the "pack molester", as I call him, feeling up the packs cuz he has no girlfriend or life. I saw 5 rack packs of Crown Royale and before he could snatch those, I ripped them off the racks and checked out. I hadnt seen any Crown Royale anywhere around here (Ive seen blasters on the bay thats about it). Got home and opned the racks first. The base are kinda bland, but thats to be expected for retail. Did like the inserts, especially these two:

Then there was this one:

And a few others:

Then of to opening the Topps box. Got a very well centered RGIII and Mo rookie, plus a few decent Platinum cards:

The reason I buy these boxes is in the hope I pull a Platinum auto. Iv'e pulled two so far (Marvin McNutt and Watts from the Texans), but for some reason, I end up pulling these instead:

This is my second pull, the first being my pink Reuben Randle Auto. I'm hoping that one day they knock the prices down on the boxes like they did last year and Ill scoop em all up
