Suffice it to say it got pretty crazy sometimes and it was easy to get caught up in the moment ... I can't tell you how many Topps Chrome LeBron James rookie cards I pulled and immediately traded (six, maybe?), for example.
One night they got this shipment of 2003 Signature Edition Football in, and I busted a few packs (I think it was one pack per box, maybe?).
I pulled a Walter Payton cut auto (the only cut auto I've ever pulled) and traded it a few minutes later, and have regretted it ever since.
I don't even remember what I traded it for.
I remember doing that back in the 90s at my LCS. Traded away a a 1994-95 Topps Spectralight Grant Hill rookie for a bunch of packs of 1991 Action Packed Update football trying to pull an Emmitt Smith RC. Why I didn't try to trade straight up for it I'll never know..... I did manage to hang onto my 1994-95 Topps Embossed Golden Idols Michael Jordan.

It's nice to have hobbies outside of my hobby
