Topps Box Extravaganza

I waited a few days to post this one, because...I really don't know. I'll just spill it now.

My dad's PR guy not only works for him, but also with Topps. So being that Baseball Cards were mentioned, one think led to another and on Friday, a box from Topps arrived at my house. Inside were:

3 Cereal Boxes of Topps Series 2.
1 Retail Box (Actually, by Retail I mean "The box of 24 packs that Target usually gets and has people take packs from) of Topps Update.
1 Hobby Box of Topps Football.

I started with the Cereal Boxes, and aside from 1 New Yo Mamma and a few base cards and inserts, not a lot was going on there. How ever...I did happen to pull a SHORT PRINT! I pulled from the 2nd one a Ernie Banks short print, which is pretty nice.

Then, I ripped Football. I'm not a football collector, but I keep some cards. Here are some of the Football Selects from the box:

From the Update box, I got a lot of rookies (Castro included), and a ROBIN ROBERTS SHORT PRINT, which was awesome.

Overall, a lot of awesome cards.
