Today, I want to talk about the 2023 Phoenix Football Checklist. I got my hands on it, and I’ve gotta say, it’s a pretty big deal this year. This thing dropped on January 26th, so it’s still fresh.
First off, I started by grabbing the checklist. It’s a monster, 200 cards in total. I heard some folks are already rating it, but I’m still figuring out where I stand. Anyway, I dove into the details, trying to make sense of it all.
What’s Inside This Checklist?
So, this checklist has a bunch of different card sets. It’s like a maze, but a fun one. I spent a good chunk of time just going through each set, checking out what’s what. There are price guides and all that jazz, which is helpful, but honestly, I was more into just seeing the variety.
Getting My Hands on the Cards
After mapping out what I wanted, I started hunting for these cards. It felt like a treasure hunt, not gonna lie. I managed to snag a few, but man, some of these are tough to find. I noticed some cards have these “SP” and “SSP” labels. From what a guy named Rodney told me, these mean they’re rare. Like, “SP” is “Shirt Printed,” and “SSP” is even rarer. Some have serial numbers, some don’t. It’s kinda wild.
Sorting and Organizing
- Pulled out all the cards I collected.
- Started sorting them based on the checklist.
- Checked for those SP and SSP cards, made a separate pile for them.
This part took a while. I mean, 200 cards are a lot. But it was satisfying to see it all come together. I even color-coded some of them, just to make it easier to find stuff later.
The Thrill of the Chase
Honestly, the best part was just the chase. The 2023 Panini Phoenix set is supposed to be a big deal, igniting the football hobby scene and all that. I get it now. It’s not just about collecting; it’s about being part of this whole thing. I’m not even a huge football fanatic, but I found myself getting into it.
Wrapping It Up
So, that’s my journey with the 2023 Phoenix Football Checklist so far. I’m still working on completing the set. It’s a process, but a fun one. There’s something about these cards, the different sets, the rare ones, it all adds up to a pretty cool experience. If you’re into collecting or just curious, I’d say give it a look. It’s a bit of a time sink, but hey, it’s a fun ride.
