  1. I think if I hit one I would hold on to it for a little. But selling right now durning the hype might bring a higher price tag, as in the Rodgers on ebay now (also doesnt hurt that he won the Super Bowl and SB MVP). Tracy will Panini have a master list with all the tickets that are hit?

  2. Why didn’t they try to do a on card auto? Would it be to hard to write on it? It would be so awesome if it was solid gold with a auto. Congratulations on your monster pull.
