I stopped by the LCS for the first time since I pulled my Sanchez SPA RPA a few weeks back (see my other thread in this forum if interested) and the first thing I noticed (after seeing they had hockey on the shelf for the first time in over a month) was that there were two boxes of SPA on the shelf.
My friend Tom and I decided to each rip a box and being the adventurous sort, I let him go first. He found his RPA early and put it aside to reveal at the end. 23 packs in, he'd pulled the standard Rookie Authentic Autos #/999 and base SPs.
When it came time to reveal the RPA, he reminded everyone that he was a Jets fan and how jealous he was that 2 Sanchez RPAs had already come out of the shop (mine and sojuking75's, which was also posted in this forum).
So he slowly moved the base cards aside to reveal...
A MARK SANCHEZ RPA!!! :Confused: :giggity:
So 3 Sanchez RPAs had come out of the LCS. I figured what the hell, this box is gonna suck compared to his but I said I'd rip it so I did.
I found the RPA and set it aside, and after 23 packs, I'd hit the base SPs and these:
Chirography Auto
Jason Smith :|
Rookie Authentics #/999
Chris Ogbonnaya (a double from my case) :| :|
It appeared as though my prophecy had come true and that this box was a true junker. But it was time for me to reveal my RPA, so there could be some redemption (so to speak)...
And redemption there was...
For under the base cards lay...
ANOTHER MARK SANCHEZ RPA!!!!
:giggity: :dance:
Un-freaking-believable!! Two boxes, two Sanchez RPAs, 4 from the same shop out of the approximately 10 boxes they'd brought in!!!
As further proof, here's the two that were pulled together:
And my previous Sanchez pull:
Between these boxes and the MONSTER UD2 boxes (see my post in the hockey show-and-tell section), it was just an amazing day at the shop. None of the Sanchez cards pictured here are FS/FT, sorry.
Thanks for making it through this long read and, as always, comments are welcome! :beer:
