Alright, let’s gab a bit about this Pat Mahomes Sr. baseball card, you know, the one with the young fella’s picture on it. Not the football star, his daddy! People are makin’ a fuss about it, so I figured I’d chew the fat with ya’ll about it.
So, Who’s This Pat Mahomes Sr. Fella Anyway?
Well, he ain’t the quarterback, that’s for sure. This here Pat Mahomes Sr. played baseball, a pitcher, they say. Threw the ball hard, I reckon. Now, he’s got himself a show, “The Big Mahomes Show” they call it. Guess he likes to talk, just like me! Anyways, he played ball a good while back, and like them fellas do, they made cards of him.
- He played Major League Baseball.
- He was a pitcher.
- Now he’s got a show.
Why are Folks Goin’ Crazy Over These Cards?
Now, I ain’t quite sure why folks get so riled up about these pieces of cardboard, but they do. Especially the rookie cards, the ones they made when he first started. Seems like everyone wants the first one, like it’s somethin’ special. And I heard tell some cards are worth more than others, even if they got the same fella on ’em. Collectors, they call ’em, fussin’ and bickerin’ over which card is the best. Land sakes!
The Big Fuss About Rookie Cards
These rookie cards, they’re a whole ‘nother story. Seems like they’re worth a whole heap more than the ones they made later. And if a player has a bunch of different rookie cards? Well, that’s when the trouble starts. Collectors start squabblin’ over which one is the “real” rookie card, the one that’s worth the most. It’s like pickin’ the best chicken in the coop, I tell ya!
How Much are These Cards Worth Anyway?
Now, that’s the million-dollar question, ain’t it? I heard tell that a whole bunch of Pat Mahomes cards, both the son’s and the daddy’s, been changin’ hands on that eBay thing. Folks are payin’ good money, too. Average price they said was somethin’ like $177.47 in the last month. That’s a lot of chicken feed! But mind you, that’s for all sorts of cards, not just the daddy’s. The rookie cards, the special ones? Those could be worth a whole lot more, or maybe less, dependin’ on how much someone wants ’em.
Where to Find These Pat Mahomes Sr. Cards?
Well, I ain’t seen ’em down at the Piggly Wiggly, that’s for sure. But folks say you can find ’em online, on places like that eBay and somethin’ called Sportlots. They got all sorts of cards there, it seems. And I reckon some card shops might have ’em too, if you’re lucky enough to find one. But be prepared to shell out some dough, especially if you’re lookin’ for one of them fancy rookie cards.
Pat Mahomes Sr. Cards on Sportlots
Now, this Sportlots place, they seem to have a bunch of these cards. They even got a guide to help you figure out how much they’re worth. And they tell you which ones are sellin’ the best. I heard tell there’s a 1992 U.S. Playing Cards Rookies card, number 2H, that’s doin’ pretty good. Folks seem to like that one. It’s got all sorts of tags on it too, like “1992 Topps”, “National Football League” – which don’t make no sense to me cause he played baseball, and “Pat Mahomes Trading Card Values”. Confusin’ if you ask me!
Thinking About Buying a Card for Investment?
Now, some folks ain’t just buyin’ these cards for fun, they’re thinkin’ they can make some money off ’em. Treatin’ it like an investment, like buyin’ land or somethin’. But that’s risky business, I tell ya. Just like farmin’, sometimes you get a good crop, sometimes you don’t. The value of these cards can go up and down, just like the price of eggs. So, if you’re thinkin’ about buyin’ a card as an investment, you better do your homework and be prepared to lose some money too.
Pat Mahomes: A Strong Arm and Fancy Footwork
Now, I’m talkin’ about the son here, the football fella. He’s famous for throwin’ that ball a country mile and runnin’ around like a jackrabbit. Folks love watchin’ him play, and that’s probably why his cards are so popular too. And maybe, just maybe, that’s why folks are startin’ to take notice of his daddy’s old baseball cards too. It’s all connected, I reckon, like a big ol’ family tree.
So, What’s the Bottom Line?
Well, the bottom line is this: Pat Mahomes Sr. played baseball, they made cards of him, and now folks are buyin’ ’em. Some are worth more than others, especially the rookie cards. If you’re a fan or a collector, you might wanna grab one. But if you’re just lookin’ to make a quick buck, well, you might be better off stickin’ to chickens. At least you can eat ’em if they don’t sell! That’s all I got to say about that. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I got to go feed them chickens.
