This is one of my favorite cards I have /99 

[Hank South]

Also have this one from the Texans 

Like to collect fun recruitments I've covered. Anderson and Henry T were memorable ones from my time covering the Tide.

Lol I'm new to the game probably no hits but pulled these guys a week ago.

That Dia card is absolutely money.

I keep forgetting that this thread exists. Darn.

All that stuff is so overpriced, man. Card shows used to be awesome, then COVID happened and private equity got into cards so everything is hyper inflated.

You can find good dealers there. There obviously are some idiots in the flip room. Over time I have met four or five guys I buy from.

I was a long-time collector cards of all things Houston and Longhorn. I remember my Dad taking us to card shows. One in particular I remember was in the Astrodome beneath the outfield seats. I still enjoy going to shows just to see cards that are out there, but mostly I enjoy taking the younger people in the family to them. I crack a lot of smiles watching the kids lose their minds with cards. 

I stopped collecting cards in the early 2000s when we started having kids. But I had amassed a huge collection prior. During the pandemic I sold off my Rockets and Longhorn collections. But I still have my Astros and Texans-Oilers cards. I am having trouble (emotionally) letting those go. But I told my wife I am having trouble finding a buyer. She seems to believe me...or is pretending to believe thus far.

I will post some pics when I get home tonight. Daughter is big into hockey and pulled a Matthew Schaefer Young Gun a couple of weekends ago and I got a Schaefer orange dazzler today. Already had a Celebrini Young Gun. 
 

I mostly grab Bowman 1st baseball cards and have a bunch of those in chrome and have about 8-10k coming in the paper form by the end of the week. Should have quite a few McGonigle and Griffin 1sts among them. 
 

I will buy random Texas Longhorn stuff when it comes up. Got some good ones recently. Just got a Skenes Chrome 1st that I’m pretty excited about. I’ll post a bunch of pics tonight.
