I had hit my 10-year award with my company and got to choose from a catalog of gifts. I chose a mini safe. I store some of my high-end cards in that as well as some important items and documents.

Nice. I remember buying packs of these at the local card shop. I believe this was the first baseball card set to feature an autograph in every pack.

Was a little bummed when I got outbid the first time this went up for auction. Luckily, it got relisted, and I wasn't going to be outbid the second time around.

SNES. When rental stores were a thing, we did that a lot. Final Fantasy VI is my ride or die. Probably spent the most hours playing and replaying that one over the years.

It's not even that. IMDB lists "Friends" as airing from 1994-2004. A 1992 Bowman card can't possibly be a rookie card for the show. Not sure what the OP is on about.
