So I was at the National Wednesday and Thursday and I'm glad I was there Wednesday because Thursday was a zoo. I can't imagine the rest of the week but it's a strong positive indicator for the hobby that it was packed early in the week. I saw plenty of cash being thrown around too. There was some hockey there however not enough for how big the show is. A lot of dealers listed their high end cards 3 to 4 times higher than recent comps which makes it difficult to even get a conversation going. My personal best pick up was a Jason Robertson SPA Black Future Watch Auto. My one gripe is the amount of people strolling a case in behind them, this shouldn't be allowed. It takes up too much space and now everyone has the enjoyment of walking around your case. It's just plain selfish when space is limited with soooo many people jammed in there. What was even worse, some people had the nerve to travel around with a large stroller for all their stuff. There was so much stuff in the stroller you would think they were dealers looking to set up but they were just regular customers.
Yes if you had the NHL package. I made sure to never miss Grapes, he was can't miss tv. It's an absolute crime he got booted off of Hockey Night. Ron Maclean is a sleaze ball for not backing him up.
@@bobbydice8934 Used to get so excited when the intro for Coach's Corner came on in the 1st Intermission....now I don't even watch CBC intermission at all..
I especially like Louie's background, that hockey stick cabinet is siiick!
Thanks! That’s the backsplash to my mini bar area!
@@78rlewi ahhh backsplash! I have kept my broken oldies and will try the same!!
@@cazschiller Do that!!! It was really fun but a mess!
Great show guys!
Appreciate that very much!
Great segment on Coffey. He is one of my all time favorites, so all this was nice to hear.
Score one for Fanatics Collect on their auto grade on non-authentic card policy amendment. Great pod boyz!
Glad you enjoyed!

It's card #1, so it's in fantastic shape just for that fact alone
...and didn't Bee Hive have cartoons on the back?
Did Americans see Don Cherrys Coach's Corner every Saturday during Hockey Night in Canada?
I don't think so....we barely saw hockey lol
