• The rip bug got me…

    I couldn’t resist ripping a couple of blasters of the new Bowman release. Bowman is one of my favorite sets.

    Here are the best cards from the first box. I didn’t even see the auto at first and was like “what’s that purple in that stack???” Turned out it was stuck to another card. And damaged, as you can easily see at the top. Yeah, it’s a stick-on and yeah it’s damaged but it was fun to get an auto (and numbered) of any type in a blaster.

    The serpentine cards in this set are pretty cool

    On to the second box…

    Photos from it in the comment below. Another auto!

    Second box. I’m not sure if I ever got an auto in a blaster before. Well today was for sure a record for me because I ripped two Bowman blasters and got TWO autos!! One in each box.

    The red Yanquiel Fernández is a fun redemption card IF he were to win Rookie of the Year. And I’m happy to get a 1st Bowman Chrome of a Braves prospect

    To be fair there are worse bugs to get lol I’m waiting on some Topps Basketball blasters to come in the mail for me! But nice cards for sure!

      I felt like I was pretty lucky with these two blasters. I hope you get an auto or numbered or both in your basektball ones that are on the way! It’s fun to rip, isn’t it? I always get something I’m happy to have, and today’s rips had more cards I’m happy with than maybe any other day I’ve had since I started collecting a few years ago.
