Imagine being selected for the Hall of Fame in your chosen sport, and a card company decides to honor that achievement by producing something with this card number...
Hopefully it was just an oversight, and not an opinion of his worthiness on Upper Deck's part.
On the positive side though , I guess he should be thankful that it wasn't one of those nickname cards :)
WOW! And this is why they should use actual numbers.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. I really dislike card numbers that aren't composed of actual numbers.
DeleteHey, I think that it was intentional, as you can't Shutt without pi-ss.
ReplyDelete:D
DeleteI see what you did there!
DeleteThat dash makes all the difference, doesn't it!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly does!
DeleteHahaha!
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteIt took me 5 minutes to figure out what the heck you were talking about. I see it now. Ha.
ReplyDeleteDon't you hate it when that happens! :)
DeleteThat's great haha!
ReplyDeleteI thought so too!
DeleteThat's pretty funny!
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteOh, Upper Deck! I've seen some cards pop up during COMC challenges with comical "numbering" and thought about doing a blog series about them. But then I'd have to stop the challenge to screenshot each card.
ReplyDeleteI've got a few saved to a folder, all of which have been found while doing the challenges. I don't have enough for a series, but am gonna try to share a few more of them at some point.
DeleteKnowing Upper Deck it was probably deliberate.
ReplyDeleteSeems like it might've been,
DeleteHah! Good eye, Jon. But wait. If the insert set is called "Induction Inks", why wouldn't the card number be II-SS? I guess we wouldn't have the joke, then ;-)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I don't know where they got the "P" from?
DeleteLol this is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty good.
DeleteThanks for the laugh!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for coming around!
DeleteGreat pick up on that!
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteAnd here I am thinking - what's wrong with 11/25? Doh!
ReplyDelete11/25 is the absolute worst :)
