Old school break DISASTER
I have been busting old school football boxes lately and have been killing it!! I almost kept my streak alive with baseball but I finally ran into the dreaded redemption card. The base cards all sucked but the two GU and auto (redemption) rocked the box.

Do you think? It expired in 2004.

I might try to call UD and see if they will do something. But if they don't I think it could still pull a few dollars on eBay.

Upper deck, from my experience, will have you send the card in to be entered into a raffle. Considering that it is an unscratched card with his picture on it, I bet there is a Ripken Die-hard who would want ti.
PC Players: Alex Bregman and Christian Yelich. Looking for any and every I don't have.
Other Players: Luis Ortiz Jr., Rowdy Tellez, Touki Toussaint

I think I'd rather keep it than send it back only to have a chance in a raffle. I looked on the box and it is so old it doesn't mention redemptions so I think I can probably be a pain in the butt enough to get something. I hope so, anyway. Because if I dont I think you are correct about a die hard Ripken collector wanting this card.

It is a tough break. What can you do? I took a shot!
mgruber2 I have looked at your signature a hundred times before, but today for some reason, it brought back a flood of memories. I used to skip school two or three times every spring to go to a day game at Tiger Stadium. Watching Trammell and Whitaker turn two while classmates sat thru algebra or history made it extra special in my mind. Once I took a girl I had a crush on and by the fourth inning we were making out in the stands........No one wants to read this so I'll stop rambling but thanks for memories.
