The 8 year old kid in me is the reason I open the entire box, every time, pretty much right when it comes through the door…..

What. A. Day. 🤯🔥

Day 1 at @nsccshow absolutely delivered! We walked until our feet hurt, saw more cards than we could’ve ever imagined, and even laid eyes on cards worth OVER 💰 $1 MILLION! 👀

But the best part wasn’t the cards…

🏆 We got to spend the day with some of the best people in the hobby. The sports card community is truly something special.

✨ Mission accomplished! We tracked down the ONE card we came for—a gorgeous 1/1 Disney Sleeping Beauty artist sketch for my mom, @jessicatreatrealtor ! She is going to LOVE it!

And to top it all off… Liam finally landed his Joe Montana! 🙌🏈 That smile made every step worth it. We met some of our favorite breakers as well! @modarts360 @pullwax

Day 1 is in the books… and we’re just getting started! 🚀

Who’s at the National? What’s been your favorite pickup so far?

⚾️ The Mick. A legend on and off the field.

This 1966 Mickey Mantle card isn’t just cardboard—it’s a snapshot of one of the greatest to ever play the game. His power, grit, and impact on baseball are still felt today.

If you could own just one Mantle card, which one would it be? 👀

🚨 One of my favorite cards in the collection is this Tony Hawk 🃏🛹—not just because of what he did on a skateboard, but because of what he represents.

Picked this one up a while back w/ @debutsports_

Tony showed the world that greatness isn’t about avoiding failure… it’s about falling hard, getting back up, and pushing past limits no one else could see.

That’s why he’ll always be one of my favorite cards—reminding me that with persistence, passion, and a little courage, you can change the game forever 🔥

🏆 My most prized piece in the collection!

As a kid, my late parents would take us on family vacations to Lake Tahoe—still one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been. My dad, a huge golfer, would sign us up to volunteer at the celebrity golf tournament.

In 1992, we got paired with an epic group: Michael Jordan, Mike Schmidt, and Mario Lemieux. I was the scorekeeper, Pops was crowd control.

A couple unforgettable moments:
1️⃣ Watching MJ skull one on a par 3 and drill a fan in the head.
2️⃣ Getting demoted from scorekeeper to crowd control because Jordan thought I made a mistake 😂

But the best memory of all was sharing that weekend with my dad.

Cheers to the memories and why we collect!
