I won four packs from the innistrad league we had here.
First pack - Nephalia Drownyard (ehhhhh)
Second pack - Foil Garruk and Essence of Wild (holy...)
Third pack - Snapcaster and Mayor (Are you...)
Fourth pack - Liliana
Yeah. I've pretty much never had luck like that before, and if I weren't there myself, I'd call myself a liar. But it's true.
In 2 consecutive FNMs, the pack I get for playing (it's $6 fee and we get a pack of our choice) I let the store owner (a very old and good friend of mine) open my packs for me.
My friend and I just split a box of Innistrad. Before we cracked it I asked him if he'd prefer to pull the rares and split them by value, or to just trade off pack for pack and keep whatever we open.
He opted for the latter...
Well I go on to open up a pack that had both a Snapcaster Mage and a Garruk Relentless.
Needless to say he wasn't happy with his decision =P

It wasn't a pull or anything, but I was at a flea market today and a booth had a old box of MTG cards. Bought the lot for 5 bucks, got 3x Force of Will. Now, I just need to get rid of them, lol.

I am a firm believer in the philosophy of a ruling class. Especially since I rule!
I would not have believe this had I not seen it with my own eyes*****
I watched a guy pull a foil damnation and an extirpate.
What was even nuttier was one of the commons was anther damnation. He didn't even notice at first because he skipped to the back and the second damnation was the second card from the front.
So
1 foil damnation
1 damnation
1 extirpate
At this point damnation was $25, foil was ~$45 and the extirpate was about $12. Mostly it was just crazy because it had 3 rares.

Are you sure the regular damnation wasnt a double faced card?

this was several years ago.(out of the planar chaos set)
this was apparently a packaging mistake because you should only be able to get at max 2 rares in one pack.

Bought my first box (Mirrodin Besieged) and I can honestly say I'm very pleased.
Notable cards:
2x Inkmoth Nexus
One of each Sun's Zenith, what are the chances of that...
1x Sangromancer
1x Sword of Feast and Famine
1x Hero of oxid Ridge
1x Massacre Wurm
1x Phyrexian Crusader
1x Blightsteel Colossus
1x Slagstorm
2x Mirran Crusader (1 foil)
3x Go for the Throat
5x Signal Pest (1 foil)
No references from the past, but I think this was a very good box.
I calculated the price, got it for 90 dollars, and when I added the price of all relevant cards, it amounted to about 147.50 dollars.
4 boxes of Innistrad. 1 Garruk, 1 foil Snap caster, 1 non-foil snap caster, 1 geist. And a BUNCH of **** rares. On the plus side, I got two of those boxes for free sooooo ehh.
Seeing that today is christmas, and most of us likely got some cards for christmas I figured let's start a thread and share what we got?
I got a pack of new phyrexia, innistrad, and a fat pack of new phyrexia. Pulled a foil phyrexian obliterator, batterskull, and a spellskite. Was bummed I got two Fresh meat's, but I think the rest makes up for most of it pretty well.

First, I'd like to thank everyone for contributing to this forum. Though we all argue and disagree from time to time, I think we all have a lot of fun here overall. Thanks to everyone for keeping this forum thriving.
I didn't see another thread about this and though it might be fun to share what MTG stuff people got for the holidays, regardless of which ones you celebrate.
Personally, I got a $25 gift card (yesterday) to Barnes and Noble that I used to buy a 2012 fat pack. I managed to pull Sorin Markov, Frost Titan, Primordial Hydra and a few of the dual lands. Three mythics out of nine packs is a nice surprise.

I saw one of those goofy overpriced "Vintage" repacks at Target. Bunch of Scars + M11, but in the back I found a Mirrodin + Odyssey. Can't pass that nostalgia up.
I open up the Mirrodin, nothing too exciting.
Then I go for the Odyssey. I feel a foil in the back as I pull the cards out, sweet. I'm flipping through quickly just to get to the foil when I stop at the rare. Bam, Gem Mint Entomb.

He opted for the latter...
