FINALLY! !!! Last night after work I drove over the local and got there just before closing and busted a couple boxes of SPA in hopes of hitting something great that I have had zero luck in pulling the last two years. I have been doing my best to pull an auto of the number one draft pick last year, Bedard and this year Celebrini. I have had ZERO luck and spent way to much trying. But with SPA, I thought one more try for this year.

Got there and didn't hit much other than this card:

It was closing time and I worked retail back in high school and college and I knew how I felt then about customers coming in late after I had worked all day so I paid and left. I didn't want the guys to have to wait on me. Got home and sorted everything and I needed three more autos to fill out a page in my autograph book so back on my lunch hour today.

Driving over there I knew the patch had not been pulled so I was thinking at least I might hit that, but when I got there they had opended a new 16 box case and mixed all the boxes together. Well bummer as I thought do I want to waste my money trying to pull the impossible?

Okay, I need three autos so I take two boxes, maybe something good.

Box one:

Well that needs to go in a holder, not my book so I go get a third box.

Box two:

Okay, now really this needs to go in a holder so I have the two others for my book and I have the third box.

FINALLY! Yes, after so, so many packs trying to pull # 1 I DID IT! and I had the third auto for my book as this certainly went in a holder!

Nice Celebrini, I tried 2 boxes didn’t get any Sharks, but I got a pretty Dallas Star 😁
 
Awesome pulls! Great story! Also interesting how close the serial numbers were on the two big hits. I had to go back and double check they weren't the same numbers, lol
