I was in the local card shop and pulled this beauty. We were playing Wax Pack Poker and I wasn't expecting to hit anything big...just looking to get more cards for my set. When I pulled it I saw that I had a box hit and waited till last to see what it was. Ironically I was standing next to the biggest Red Sox fan in town and his jaw DROPPED!!! Who's wouldn't?

Pulled this one out of a box of American Pie I bought a few years ago. Remember as I was opening packs thinking how cool it would be to pull this exact card. 
Also pulled a Mystery Cuts redemption recently and am hoping for a nice historical/author/ or old Hollywood autograph.

Pulled this from 1 box of 07 BDP when it first came out, my only box that year. Sold it for $350 just before he was traded to the Twins and when people still thought he was a great prospect. There was one posted on here a few weeks ago that had just ended at auction on ebay for around $70. I haven't actually bought a box since! I think I made out well.
I hadn't hit anything in the box except for a Detwiler chrome auto redemption and a green refractor of a nobody. I was getting pretty pissed and I pulled it out of the 2nd to last pack. I was pretty happy but didn't realize quite how much it was worth (I figured maybe $100) but I soon found out.
On a side note though, I had to look through my "sold/traded" section of my photobucket, saw some cards I wish I still had ::facepalm::

I'm sure everyone is sick of seeing this card, but I will always remember this pull because I pulled it the day he was called up to the majors (April 12, 2008). I remember it was a Saturday and I had just purchased a five box lot of 2006 bowman draft at Frank and Sons, my first visit there in over 3 months. My third box in, cracking at Fugazzi's table, I saw the serial number out of 5 on the back, and my heart froze when I saw "Longoria" on the top reverse of the card. I didn't even know he had been called up yet, but it was announced later that evening, and I've had the card ever since......It's truly a gem!

This card was and still is the biggest pull from a pack I did back in 2001. I bought a box of 2001 SP Legendary Cuts for $70.00 through Ebay. Had no idea if I was going to pull a relic or an auto card. 2001 was the year I became more into card-collecting world...
Anyways, I will never ever forget the moment when I opened a pack and I was very in awe of this card. Ran downstairs to show the card to my mom and my (ex-girlfriend) who had NO idea who this player was! :lol:
Still have this card in my posession, and will not probably sell it during my lifetime:

That card would make anyone on this board speechless.... That Wagner is fantastic, I would never get rid of it either.
Congrats on having one of the best cards I have ever seen
