Greg Biffle Memorial and NBA Advent Calendar day 18

 Such sad, shocking news today. Greg Biffle, his wife Christina, daughter Emma and son Ryder were killed in a plane crash today, along with three other people. Although mostly retired now, he was the first to win the championship in the Truck and Busch series, and came 1 spot short of winning all three major touring titles in NASCAR, something that no one has ever done. Ever since retiring he has dedicated his life to humanitarian work, and was especially active in helping people after Hurricane Helene devastated the area. That's not all, he did a LOT of work to help people that never got publicized. I saw someone in Jamaica who said he was there helping after the earthquake they had, which I wasn't aware of until I saw the memorial post they put on Twitter today. 

He was named as one of NASCAR's 75 Greatest Drivers during their 75th Anniversary season in 2023 and is sure to be inducted into the Hall of Fame...it's only a matter of time. It's such a shame that he won't get to experience that though. 

Here are 10 highlights from the 173 cards of him I have scanned. 

Although I have to admit that my heart wasn't in it today, I did do the NBA Advent calendar and got a first today as well. The base card and the plaid parallel in the same pack.
