I'm currently dealing with an infected wisdom tooth that broke off. Extreme pain, even for me, someone who has lived in pain 24/7/365 for a couple of decades now. It has not been pleasant for me here lately.
After a trip to the dentist, I stopped at my local card shop and bought myself a "pick me up"...a box of 2024-25 Clear Cut, which is one single card in a box. For $85. Totally unlike anything I usually buy, and not something I do often.
The main draw of this set is that the cards are clear, which is why it's called Clear Cut. Except when they are not. The UD Canvas insert is not, and that is of course what I pulled, which I am sure you have figured out by now.

This happens to be the Red Ink parallel, which is numbered to the player's jersey number.
It's a nice enough card, but after tax it was $90. Not a card I would expect to pay $90 for. At least it's my first Kraken autograph, and it's not a player I dislike...I don't really know enough about him to know if I would dislike him. I did see his first career game, which is kind of cool.
It will probably be a long time before I do something crazy like this again.
I'm sorry about the pain in your tooth and the sort of disappointing pull. Maybe try a hobby box instead once that tooth gets ripped out. The title on this is hilarious!
