Matt Ryan leads the way with this box.

I purchased this Fairfield 75 Football Cards + 1 Pack Jumbo Box for $5.20.

On average, one in every four of those jumbo boxes includes a hit which is very easy to spot if it's a memorabilia card, as was the case with my box.

I'm predicting that 40 of my 75 cards is from the overproduced 90s era. I'm also predicting that I'll pull 10 inserts.

1999-topps-chrome-football-125-jason-elam

That card didn't age well. How is it Topps placed a removable protective seal on their 1999 Finest series, but didn't bother to do the same with their 1999 Chrome series?

One of Topps best looking designs for their standard series.

  • 2011 Topps Football 258 Randy Moss

  • 2012 Panini Gridiron Football 87 Blaine Gabbert

2012-panini-gridiron-football-87-blaine-gabbert

  • 2012 Panini Absolute Football 56 Beanie Wells

Insert Cards

  • 2008 Topps Football Black 5 Cedric Benson

2008-topps-football-black-5-cedric-benson

One of Topps worst looking sets.

  • 2011 Panini Certified Football Fabric of the Game 6 Torrey Smith (serial numbered 169/250)

2011-panini-certified-football-fabric-of-the-game-6-torrey-smith

Typical "Fairfield" hit.

  • 2013 Topps Football GL-RC Roger Craig

2013-topps-football-gl-rc-roger-craig

A legendary looking trading card.


Pack

  • 1990 Pro Set Football Retail Pack

1990-pro-set-football-retail-pack

That set includes loads of cool error and variation cards. Here's hoping I'll pull one of those cards when I open that pack tomorrow!


Although I pulled three bonus cards including a hit card, that was a pretty disappointing break, because my main card (2014 Topps Fire Football 93 Matt Ryan) was damaged, and I only pulled three insert cards.
