B-day luck - hittinaway - 03-09-2015
I had my b-day weekend last week and had a great gift plus some luck. My wife and family pitched in a bought this Koufax card from my LCS plus a $50 gift card. Sorry for the large images as Photobucket seems to give me the wheel of death when trying to edit.

My LCS also has drawing every week and depending on what you spend you get a ticket into the drawing. My wife gave me the tickets to go see if I won anything. I ending up winning a $50 gift card so I now have $100 toward something. I also had some b-day money and decided to take advantage of my luck and get this guy.

Then my mom mailed me some bundle packs from Target. I got 2014 Panini Prizm Draft (I have never opening these before as I don't get into prospects but pleased and surprised to get an auto (redemption) as I have horrible luck when opening packs and have yet to buy a pack this year and don't plan on getting more anytime soon. Anyway I ended up getting Jhoandro Alfaro. No clue who he is but went ahead and redeemed it and see how he does. Google helped at least identify this 16-17 year old.
Blister pack of 2015 Topps and didn't really get anything worth mentioning.
As for my last bundle back I got 2014 Bowman Platinum. Here I got a Russell Wilson Toosly Die Cut and this guy...

Hanging onto it right now but not sure what I'll do with it. Looks good other than the top right corner but maybe a 9? I'm not sure if it's worth getting graded or not because of that and I have never sent anything in for grading before so it would be a learning experience. Overall a great b-day week!

Thanks everybody for the b-day wishes and glad to knock the Ryan off my bucket list.

Nice Ryan rook there. And this is the 2nd I've heard of someone pulling the Bryant auto out of a retail. The other was a blaster box, but to get it out of a single pack (albeit in a bundle) is just awesome. Congrats again.
