Default Topps Prediction: Live Game Active Player Box Breaks

I think they are going to announce the active players will be breaking product at various memorable events. First game, last game....

They will probably live stream it on a dedicated app/channel and create in the moment custom hits.

More and more players are on social media touting their own collections so I see this as a possibility. Imagine Trout opening a case of Topps Finest/Bowman's Best live. Every card becomes a third-class relic.

Didn't Matt Strahm do some live breaks on MLB network (I could be wrong on what channel) before he got hurt last year? It was entertaining watching him open Sapphire and comment on the cards.

I heard there is a promotion in Topps Big League this year where you pull a certain Trout card and he'll follow you back on social media. Means nothing to me but Topps is trying some stuff. And doing coordinated social media stuff with players like having them all post about Series 1 launch this year. I now most people here seem to want to hate on Fanatics but they do seem to have some fresh ideas.

He has a show on Bally's called The Card Life. I was fortunate enough to be on the first episode. I'm the guy showing Matt my 1990 Topps Partial Blackless cards. Crazy day.

I won't be surprised to see this become standard entertainment. I can't wait for halftime shows sponsored by Topps Chrome.

Here's the link: https://youtu.be/_DNEe31RiU8

I've never actually watched the episode myself and don't plan to. The cards we pulled were from a guy who pulled the NNOF. I'm not sure how they framed it but it was a day to remember.
