| That must have been a dealer box. I got retail and didn't get those
cards.

652.2 | Crash the Game Cards | TWOBA::HAYES | | Tue Aug 16 1994 15:26 | 19 |
| I was playing pack poker with a dealer. We were going by things like:
Heaviest Player, Most career Fumble Recoveries etc.... Inserts
were lost if you lost. The card facing the dealer in my pack was
a Bledsoe Crash the Game Card. Fortunately I won with Ronnie Lott
on an oldest player pack......whew......
I liked them too. Didn't know that retail didn't have the Crash
Cards. I'll be careful before I buy a box.
It's really getting where every box has some season long gimick.
Classic Offensive Rookie of the year, Proline MVP, TSC Teams cards,
Leaf BB MVP, etc..... The next insert wave is upon us......
I do like it better than the past insert stuff though. I was very
interested in the SB last year because I had a Cowboys card and no
Bills.

| The Crash the Game insert cards are in both.
I was averaging two per box on the inserts + 1 Gold card.
There is also a silver logo card in each pack.

652.12 | Gold Card Question | NEMAIL::PAVLOCK | | Wed Aug 24 1994 16:26 | 9 |

Just bought couple of packs of UDCC FB and pulled a gold Terrell
Buckley form the Packers.
Is this guy any good? Is this reasonable "trade bait"

| Since I was in a wax pack opening mood last night, I picked up a box
of these. Got a Lorenzo White gold card, a Shannon Sharpe Crash The
Card and some stiff named Barry Sanders Crash The Card. Also got some
winner card for an 8 card "Then and Now" Hologram set. Since I liked
the baseball edition of Upper Deck Collector's Choice I liked this
set also. Some of the silver foil cards I got were Jerome Bettis, Joe
Montana, Rick Mirer. I didn't sort the entire box, but I did get all
cards from the three subsets (cards 1-60).
By the way, I'm looking for the silver foil checklists of 381, 382
and 384.

652.14 | New image for UD?? | NEMAIL::PAVLOCK | | Mon Aug 29 1994 11:19 | 19 |

I opened and sorted a box of UD CC football over the weekend. I was
most impressed!!
I got 3 Carsh the Game cards, Thurman Thomas, Drew Bledsoe and Chuck
Johnson, a Holos mail-in, the Pat Harlow gold card and all but 9 of the
regular cards for a complete set!!! I got lucky as well with both the
Emmitt Smith and Shuler rookie Silver cards.
UD really blew their image (with me) on this box. Whoever heard of
getting 375 of 384 cards in one box from UD. I have to write them and
tell them of their screw up.
Seriously, this was very unusual for UD. Collated was really remarkable
for them.
Regards,
Denny

UD may be finally responding to all the complaints about poor
collation. Their regular football issue (330) also apparently
collates well. The guy at All Star Sports Cards in Merrimack (nh)
was amazed when he got a complete set from a single box.

652.16 | Maybe there's a problem with their collation ;-) | PENUTS::JST_ONGE | John St.Onge USDSL DTN: 297-9527 | Mon Aug 29 1994 22:02 | 6 |
| The regular baseball and second series Collector's Choice sorted
well also. I bought a pack of the regular football issue. I thought
it'd be like the regular baseball, but it was much nicer set. If
there's some decent prices Saturday at BG I may pick up a box.
