Well, after working all night and being completely wiped out, my neighbor wakes me up after an invigorating 40 minutes of sleep. Seems UPS left a note with him that I have a package I need to pick up at their office. I'm thinking, "well I know it's my box of Contenders, but why did they leave a message with my neighbor?" So I get back up and head down there to pick my package up. Lo and behold, I'm informed "it's out for delivery." I inform the guy that I've just worked almost 15 hours, and could he possibly find out which driver has my package. He radios around for 35 minutes and finally finds the driver, BUT, he's on lunch! I calmly explain that I really don't wish to be woke up again when he does deliver it, and ask if I could meet him where he's having his lunch? He sounded kinda iffy, but finally agreed. So now, I'm off to one of 3 local Taco Bell's (he just happened to be at the one furthest away from my current location.) I finally meet up with the guy, apologizing for interrupting his "me time", and alas, I'm on my way back home, Contenders box in tow. This whole process took a little over 2 hours (that's 2 hours I could have been dreaming about pulling a Bush RC from the box!) Anyway, I got gome and started ripping packs. Here are the results with the "consolation prizes" listed first.

Will Blackmon (Could have been a better 5th bonus auto, but look above one more time and ask if I care!)

The lack of sleep as it turns out, was worth it. And yes, I'll take actually pulling the card over losing 2 hours sleep dreaming that I pulled the card, any day of the week! The only downside....these things do not scan worth a crap with that foil front. But hey, I got the Bush

cant ask for anything better than that! nice hit!

AWESOME PULL !!!!!!!!

Maybe i'll open my next box on 40 minutes sleep. lol

Wow....that made up for the lack of sleep!

Very nice..looks like that Bush made your hair fall out.

Thanks guys

Just noticed that myself! Looks like I left a little towel debris from cleaning my scanner

Finally a good break of Contenders.... this stuff has been brutal to most....

I've heard that too. Before this, the best card I'd personally witnessed anyone pulling was a Colston RC

Very nice break!

Thanks

wow nice box..how much u pay for it?

$135 w/ shipping

Forgot to ask.....has anyone else hit a 5 auto box of this stuff??

SWEET PULLS!!!

Thanks. Definitely a fun box to bust

VERY NICE!!!! I would have been exited pulling the first hit, but then comes the BUSH!!!! WOWSA!

Need the Fasano!

First off: super pulls I like them all .....but the blackmon
Next where did you get it for the 135?? lmk Id like to get a box or 2 maybe

I buy my boxes from championcard.com I looked last night, and their Contenders was already up to $155

Incredible box, very nice... id lose a little sleep for that! Now if it turned out like my box which the best was a demetrius williams, I wouldnt of been a happy camper

Didn't I get my Demetrius Williams from you?

Lol, I think so!

Thought I did

Nice Break! GREAT BUSH!!!

Blackmon could be really good...injury prone Rookie year though...

Thanks. God knows I was due to finally pull something!
