I love this hobby because I was an opiate addict for years and when I finally started to get clean, sports cards helped change my life. It gave me a community of amazing people that welcomed me with open arms. Lootbox tv was one of the first Sportscard RU-vid channels I found and y’all have been a big influence on me, so thank you boys! There is no better hobby in the world.
I am just a collector. Not just cards. I collect everything! For as much negativity that is in the hobby. There is so much positivity as well. I was an addict for many years. After 8 years of sobriety I can honestly say that the hobby has been a big part of my sobriety. Lastly, you guys are killing it!! Keep up the great work!
Same dude…I wanted to be better, but the cards helped me push thru. 4 years in December and I was pretty hardcore! Keep ripping and stick with it! Much love! We don’t all recover! Proud of you brah.
Collected when I was a teenager but now in my 40’s I’m now loving and appreciating the value and fun experiences. And learning a ton with the card collecting community. This is what it’s all about. Thanks lootbox
Started collecting all the way back in 1994. Born and raised in Indiana. Reggie Miller was my guy day 1. After school would always go over to my neighbors and we’d show off our collections and trade cards. The Hobby has always been about relationships and sharing things in common with people all over the globe. There are few things in life that can unite us. This is one of them. So happy you guys finally hit the #💯K!! You’ve brought me a lot of joy and laughs over the years. CONTINUED SUCCESS AND STAY POSITIVE. CHEERS! 🍻🧃
I've collected for 35 years and the best part of the hobby was getting my 2 sons involved into breaking boxes with me...Seeing the excitement on there faces from getting hits or their favorite players...My oldest son was killed 5 years ago when he was 15...Now everytime I open a box with my youngest I still get that great feeling and great memories and a reminder of why I love this hobby
I LOVE THE FACT THAT YOU GUYS ENJOY OPENING BOXES AND KEEP US AT THE EDGE OF OUR SITS WAITING FOR EVERY CARD TO BE AN EPIC ONE. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND VIDEOS!
I’ve been collecting 3-4 years now. I remember my first box it wasn’t anything big but my great uncle (who got me into collecting) gave me a 2008 score blaster and a complete set of 92 topps. I’m still in my collecting stage but here in a couple of years I will start to sell. I collect chiefs and lakers and I plan to do a Keon Colemon rainbow once 2024 prizm comes out because I think he will be sneaky good.
When I was young I had an older brother and with my father we would collect cards and go to shows.after my brother passed we stopped and didn't open another pack or buy a card for 20+ years.in 2018 we were moving and found his old collection and the memories came flooding back.we were back in the hobby and still going strong since I've added the new generation to our family.
Love the people you meet and the generosity of everyone. I got back in during covid and have met so many great people all thanks to cards. Also the nostalgia. Feels really great pulling a card you had as a kid.
I loved nothing more than collecting cards when I was a kid. Now I want to show my son how much fun it can be. Also, a great community to make new friends and be a part of.
I love this hobby. My grandpa used to take me every week to a card shop to get me a pack of cards. We ended up moving and somewhere and somehow all my binders of cards got lost. I have three kids now and they see me enjoying the hobby and pack openings or getting a graded card in the mail. Trying to pass along the hobby to the next generation of people as such my own kids to be able to keep it going
Came back to collecting in 2022-23 and was surprised how much the hobby changed. At first was a little discouraged with the high hobby prices, but have found a way to navigate ebay, cardshows, and other avenues of acquiring the cards. Along the way I've met some incredible people, and learned a lot as well.
I have collected since a young kid. Every Christmas would only ask for sports cards. Collected a crap ton of pokemon too. I enjoy the hobby because it allows me to take a deeper dive into the sports world/ plus the community is great and card shows are a lot of fun. 👍
I still remember the days when there were 10s of sports card shop near me, I just love the memories of collecting when I was young. Ripping wax and pulling your PC card is something magical lol makes me feel like a kid again. congratz on 100k
Found an old box of 17-18 Donruss in my closet with a Tatum, Fox and lonzo rookie in it which I showed to my dad who used to collect a ton in his day. He was interested and then started telling me stories all about what he collected, how he used to collect with his dad and how terrible and watered down the markets were 😂. Eventually we both got intrigued and started to focus more on sports and started collecting once again.
I love collecting Ozzie Smith. That's who my Mom collected back in the 80s-90s and passed the collection on to me, so every time I pick up an Ozzie Smith, it feels like I'm keeping the tradition going.
It was fun to pick this hobby back up during COVID and am having a great time just busting packs, meeting new people, and occasionally hitting some crazy cards
I love the hobby because it brings back my childhood , I’m 35 and I’m yet to open a hobby box but watching you guys rip retail always inspires me to pick up a box and try my luck .
I collected when I was a kid when Big Mac hit his 70HRs I got older and went on to the military and when covid hit my PTSD/Anxiety got real bad being stuck in the house all the time, well I started ripping cards and watching videos like yours that really helped me get through a touch time. Now I open cards all the time and recently dabbled in making my own videos here on YT!! Keep up the good work and congrats on the 100K
I’ve been collecting on and off since 1985. I love my Wisconsin sports teams, love hunting special Giannis cards and now J-Love. The resurrection of the industry the past four years has been crazy. I love content creators like you guys that bring the positivity and make lots of interesting content. Personally, I still get that “fizz” every time I rip a pack and occasionally get a big hit that keeps me going. A sincere congratulations for 100k, it’s very well deserved! 🥳
The hobby is a fun way to connect most of us with childhood memories. I enjoy watching card channel content, so much real drama, suspense, excitement, and entertainment!
Use to rip when I was a kid.... got back into it about a year and a half ago. My daughter came to visit me this summer and is showing interest. Brings back memories and it's awesome to share with my kids
Started collecting again after a 30 year break. Love my hometown hero Corbin Carroll. Been fun getting back in the hobby and helping my son start his collection. Go Birds!!
Congrats on 100k, Homies!! I have been a collector all my life pretty much. I grew up in the Seattle area and was a huge Griffey Jr fan and collector. Unfortunately I had to sell off my collection a few years back do to a cancer battle but trying to rebuild. Still to this day collect anything Seattle sports. Thanks so much for all the vids. Really enjoy watching them all.
I’ve actually only truly been in the sports card hobby for about 4 years.. I love how it’s helped form new friendships! It gives a little bit of competition between my wife and I as we pack battle every time we find some retail product. You both are absolutely some of the best in the hobby right now! Keep it up! Thank you for all the laughs! Love you guys!
Congrats on the 100K! This was one of the first channels I subscribed to when I got back into the hobby a few years ago. One of the best parts of collecting is the added connection I get with the sports I love watching, whether it's cheering on players I've hit big cards for, or PC'ing players I've become fans of through watching.
My grandfather got me into collecting. We would spend hours looking at cards together and it’s something I remember to this day. Loved watching braves games with him and thankful for him getting me into the hobby. Congratulations on 100k
I love meeting and making new collecting friends. It has been fun helping each other attain collector goals. Especially when my PC is Ichiro! Thanks for all the fun and informative videos!
Just started collecting cards about 4 months ago, I have a lot of cards now, I collect Broncos cards, Reggie Miller, Micheal Jordan, Bo Jackson, Marvin Mims, Bo Nix, I bought a lot of baseball cards from around 1989. Never pulled anything good out of any breaks. But, love your shows, and energy! Best wishes, My Brothers!
I got back into collecting agian to have a hobby while retiring from the military late last year. I collect all types of cards cuz I want my channel to be for everyone!!! I played baseball from 6-12 years old and collected baseball cards until high school. Love the channel and the peace yall bring to a lot of us!!!! Congrats on 100K subs!!!
I love how this hobby can connect multiple generations. My nephew is starting to get into card collecting and I gave him his first ever slab a PSA 10 Brock Purdy rookie card and his face lit up from ear to ear and he was so excited and he gave me a big hug, and it made me feel great. Then we opened up some blaster boxes and just had fun talking about the players and football.
I love the hobby for so many reasons. I worked a job that was super physical on my body and beat me up everyday, and after getting injured I flipped through my PC and realized I should take a shot at NFL media. I quit my job and am now on "the chase" to be in media, and a lot of that love is fueled by my love for football cards. The hobby has truly completely changed my life.
Congrats on 100K! I just got into the hobby. My grandpa was a huge collector, and now I see why. It's a blast, and I've been enjoying all of it. Excited to see the 200k journey!
I’ve been collecting for about 5 years now and it’s been a pretty good experience. The guys I’d say I’m collecting the most right now are Ant-man, Kevin Durant and A.J. Brown and that A.J. Brown card would be nice for my collection. Also congrats on hitting 100k subs, I love watching your guys videos so just keep doing what you’re doing.
To me the hobby is not just about the players you collect, it’s about the people you get to connect with. You can collect whoever you want, but when all comes down to it I think that majority of people are in collecting for the connections. I love collecting players that are on the come up and stars prizm rookies.
I came into this hobby at a time when life was crumbling in 2020. It has meant so much to me to not only see it bring people together, but feel like we are all sharing a mutual love of something when we go to shows or watch videos.
I grew up collecting as a kid, and recently my oldest son has taken an interest, so we have been ripping together! That and opening packs for the thrill is always fun! I'm a huge Ozzie Smith fan, and have been collecting him for decades!
I started as a kid and now I get to share it with my kids. You can enjoy the hobby at many levels and if you are doing it for enjoyment even the antics and whatnot aren’t so bad.
Started collecting NBA cards in the early 90’s. Something about opening cards as a kid that was so special. It wasn’t about the hits but about the players you loved. I remember spending my summers at my LCS growing up and just watching people open packs all day. Now I get to enjoy the hobby with my kids and watch the joy in their eyes as they get their favorite players
Congrats on the 100k, keep it up! Positive about the hobby is I started collecting with my dad in the late 80's when he was diagnosed with cancer & I will forever cherish the memories of collecting with him. Sadly he passed away a year & half later but I still have some of the cards we collected together & they mean the world to me. I also love the way the hobby brings people together.
First off, congratulations on reaching 100k! Why I love the hobby is because of the many amazing people that I've met through sports cards. A couple I now call my best friends and never would've met them without football and baseball cards. I personally collect Herbert for the chargers and ducks, and Julio Rodríguez, Mariners, and Acuna Jr. Just started collecting a few years ago and don't see myself stopping anytime soon!
Congrats on the huge milestone of 100k subscribers. That’s amazing and well deserved. Love this hobby and the bonds it creates. I mainly do baseball but all cards and collecting is great in my eyes.
I've been collecting since the '80's and have past my love for card collecting to my son. It's great to have access to so many videos on utube like Lootbox TV to watch different way's other collectors share what they love to collect and open different kinds of product. Each channel also helped educate my son on all the different type of cards from numbered to variation and even how to get a card graded. Great to see this hobby continuing to grow. Congratulations on reaching 100K subscribers!
CONGRATS ON 100k. I love the hobby because it’s so diverse and there are soooo many things you can collect from baseball to Star Wars to Pokémon. And I like to collect Roberto Clemente, he was such a great player and a great person.
Started collecting in about 2002 (sophomore year of high school) stopped for a while and started again around 2018 and been watching that channel for a long time now. Gets me every time when I hear “phenomenal!!” And “homie Bologna” 😂😂😂 I love having a hobby I can share with my son and both be excited about. Keep the great content coming! Congrats on a 100k fellas 🙏🏽
Started collecting in 2013 and I’ve got the route of buying and selling sports cards but didn’t find as much joy as just collecting my favorite players/cards. My favorite part of the hobby is the hunt for the best/coolest card for my personal collection. Also the people I meet during the hunt. Congratulations on 100k subscribers, you guys deserve it & ps I love the short videos juice.
I love the hobby because there are cards for all levels of collectors. Been collecting common Jordans for almost 30 years now and have more recently started buying slightly more expensive ones, but love them all.
I've been collecting on and off since I was 6. I got back in the hobby when covid hit just like tons of other collectors and I haven't looked back since! I PC every single card I open. I've never once sold any card. Obviously, I'm aware of the values and I pay attention but to me, the value comes from the experience, the nostalgia and excitement! My son is only 3 but he is starting to pay attention. I'm looking forward to sharing everything that comes from the hobby with him! Those are the positives for me in the awesome hobby of ripping sports cards!
The hobby for me is a reminder of family and friends and all the great sports moments in my life. What I collect and how much I spend has gone up and down but my love of the hobby hasn’t changed
Been collecting since I was 11 years old. I started football cards, but soon started collecting baseball, basketball, and hockey. I collect Bo Jackson and Frank Thomas cards. Two most favorites of all time 😃
Congrats on 100k subs! The answer is very simple, it's because it's still fun to unbox even if the pulls were not that good and the hobby community is awesome. 💯
I got back into the hobby a year ago and have loved every second of it. I love the community of fellow hobbyists from young to old that I’ve met. I enjoy collecting my local teams and especially being a resource officer at a local high school collecting kids that have made it to the big leagues.
Congrats on 100k! I love this hobby because of the joy of ripping with my uncle! He's been collecting since he was a kid and his face lights up when we look at his collection!
Just started out as a 80's kid collecting the overproduced wax products, but loved every minute of opening those packs and just smelling the gum inside. Very good memories of those moments. I started watching live card breaks around 7 years ago and they just got me excited about where the hobby was heading. Watching a classemate's son getting drafted by the Dodger's a few years back just sealed the deal of being a collector all over again. Never thought I would get to collect someone in the hobby that I actually knew and gave pitching lessons to both of my sons.
I did sports camp back in the early 2000s at the end of each day the old coach gave everyone a pack. On my first day I hit a Kevin Garnett patch. For the next three years I would anticipate the sports camp so I could get a new fresh pack of cards to open. I plan to give my kids cards after there sport practices in the future
I like the hobby because it's nostalgic, and it takes me to a time when I was a kid collecting during the junk wax in late 80s to mid 90s. If I can't get a patch or memorabilia of a player, or watch them play live, at least I can collect their cards. I collect Stephen Curry, Will Clark, Madison Bumgarner, Kevin Johnson, Andre Iguodala, Latrell Sprewell, Chris Mullin, Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, and players/celebrities that went to my alma mater, went to my high school, or are from my small town. My experience has been good. There's a small cardshop in my area and the owner saves me cheap mullin, KJ, and Sprewell cards. I don't talk much to people at shows, but I like hearing what people like to collect and their stories.
I love the hobby because it’s the only thing that makes me feel close as home me and my brothers use to collect all type of cards when we were kids . Now being in the military miles away from them , we still call to show each other our collection. I now collect all Phil eagles , any rookie baseball cards, Anthony Edwards and Kawhi Leonard
I love the hobby because as I get older it makes me feel like a child. I remember ripping packs when I was like 10 years old and I feel like that kid again when I collect. I collect all kinds of players from baseball, basketball, or football. My two big PCs are the Timberwolves and the Twins! Recently I also got into vintage baseball.
Collected as a kid during the junk wax era. Came back around to collecting last year. I've always liked 'games of chance'. Opening up packs is the ultimate gamble. Congrats on the milestone.
I love the hobby because it keeps me back in touch with my youth and what I used to do with my late grandfather. I now do it with my daughter and it’s a feeling that’s unimaginable. Really only get the packs and cheaper boxes but it’s more for the experience than anything
I collect mainly Star Wars. That community is awesome. It is a smaller then sports. I watch your channel to get excited about sports and dabble as needed.
I've loved collecting cards every sense my first pack of 1986 topps baseball. Ripping packs making complete sets every year. I also like finding out that people in your life collect that you wouldn't expect too
I just recently started collecting and selling sports cards. My brothers and I have fallen in love with the hobby. I’ve always been a fan of the Georgia Bulldogs and the Braves and I love collecting cards of some of my favorite players from those teams. My favorite memory while collecting sports cards is pulling an Acuña gold mirror image variation from a hobby box at Crank’s. I found your videos and instantly subscribed. I’ve loved watching all your videos while learning more and more about the hobby. Thank you for your amazing content.
congrats on 100K! been here since the early pokemon days and still enjoy the sports hobby openings that you guys do now! love the many different collectible hobbies, been collecting for the last couple of years after taking a break when i collected in my childhood. again CONGRATS
