one of the most famous cards ever:

LOL. That was THE card to have when I was a kid.

There were like 4 different versions of that card. The one you see above, one where "fuck face" was scribbled out, one w/ a black box over it, and one with a white box over it.

I can remember buying an entire box of '89 Fleer in hopes of getting that card. Never did though.

Also, anyone remember all the fuss over the Brien Taylor draft pick card? He was a pitcher in the Yankees minor league system who was supposed to make a huge splash, but never even pitched in the majors.

Best cards I ever got from a pack had to be when I was buying hockey cards back in 1986. My friends and I were really into street hockey and we used to buy hockey cards as well as baseball cards.

I pulled a Patrick Roy rookie and a Mario Lemieux second year card from those packs.

Also, I pulled a Jerry Rice rookie out of a pack of football cards from the same year I believe. I didn't even know I had it until I was digging through my cards years later. But being that I was into hockey at the time, I traded away the Rice rookie card to someone at school for a Brett Hull rookie card. Still kicking myself for that one.
