Three Box Break - This Old MVP Left with Just a Little bit of Grey

[piper1]

I went to the Grey Cup Traders Night at the LCS in Kanata and it featured many of the Black Friday Sale Prices for the entire weekend. Therefore, I decided to take advantage and went with one box of Fleer Showcase and one box of Portfolio:

I started with the Fleer Showcase which, although there was nothing spectacular, was a somewhat decent box with the following:

15/16 Fleer Showcase Biega / Grenier / Pedan Hot Prospects Trio RC 106 290/499
15/16 Fleer Showcase Henrik Samuelsson Hot Prospects Auto Patch RC 161 237/499 3 colours
15/16 Fleer Showcase Jonathan Toews Flair Showcase #22
15/16 Fleer Showcase Wayne Gretzky Flair Showcase #35
15/16 Fleer Showcase Mattias Janmark Rookie Flair Showcase #48
15/16 Fleer Showcase Jamie Benn Flair Showcase Materials #13 White
15/16 Fleer Showcase Slater Koekkoek Flair Rookie Materials Auto Patch #59 31/65 Blue and White with Seam
15/16 Fleer Showcase Sam Bennett Metal Universe MU-5
15/16 Fleer Showcase Zachary Fucale Metal Universe MU-18
15/16 Fleer Showcase Colton Parayko Metal Universe MU-25
15/16 Fleer Showcase Mike Condon Skybox Prospects S26 147/499
15/16 Fleer Showcase Joonas Donskoi Ultra Rookies Violet Medallion U-10 13/25

It was then on to opening the Portfolio Box which was pretty darn good in my opinion with the following:

15/16 Portfolio Joonas Donskoi RC 208
15/16 Portfolio Andreas Athanasiou RC 210
15/16 Portfolio Garret Sparks RC 213

Now the reason for the title. In the third quarter of the Grey Cup game it looked like Ottawa had the game locked up so the owner said an additional $10 off the 2015 CFL boxes if Ottawa wins the Grey Cup. As the end of the 4th quarter neared we all figured that the additional discount was as good as gone. However, it was saved in Overtime by the amazing bobble catch and I took advantage. Since it was Canadian Football I won't post the entire break but halfway through the box I was already feeling pretty good about the two Jerseys and the Coehoorn Auto, when out pops a Patch Card of the games MVP Henry Burris. A nice three colour numbered 14/15.

This was meant for the Show and Tell if a Mod would like to move it. Sorry about that.
