This will be the first year in a long time I haven't opened any Contenders football with no such chance in sight, but at least I got a taste of my favorite Panini product and their popular autographed tickets with basketball.
Guess it's time for you to sit back and see why this product is so hot.
In every box of Contenders basketball 2019-2020, you will find 12 packs per box with 10 cards per pack. Boxes will have 2 autographs, much lower than the six there used to be, and boxes can run you up to $400+.
BASE:
Typical layout design for the base this year with Contenders sticking with the ticket theme like it has for many years.
(Card Back) There are 100 base cards in the set and the set consists of veterans.
PARALLELS
Find the following parallels,
TICKET PARALLELS: Playoff /199, Semifinal /149, The Finals /65, Conference Finals /125, Cracked Ice /25, Championship 1/1, Printing Plates 1/1.
GAME TICKET PARALLELS: Green, Red, Blue /99, Purple /49.
Playoff Ticket /199
Conference Finals /125. I like the rainbow shine on these
INSERTS:
