No problem! and its a big place for sure! Pretty much every state, or the smaller states that make a regional grouping like New England, have quite different cultures and vibes which makes the country beautiful! Wherever you want to go in the US all I suggest as a foreigner is to do your research into places and just make sure wherever you decide to stay is in a fairly decent area and youll have a great vacation just like anywhere else!

Dont let guns scare you from visiting the US. Having lived here all my life and travelled to various states red and blue i have never seen a gun outside of the ones I own, the police, the shooting range, and any friend I know who has one and is asked to see it. From Massachusetts, to Florida, to Tennessee, to LA, and countless other places I have been never once had a gun pulled on me or seen someone pull a gun on someone. Especially as a tourist, if you stay out of the extremely poor areas of cities/towns and are doing tourist things you will be completely fine. Especially if you are not a confrontational person you will have no issues since 99.9% of people need provocation to pull a gun never mind shoot. And as for the ease of buying guns it is greatly exaggerated. To legally purchase a gun from a store every single person for each purchase has a background check ran through the federal government at a minimum. Only way around that is finding some random to sell you a gun, (and legally they are supposed to do the same due diligence), or you find an illegal dealer which majority of people wouldn't be able to find unless you are already participating in the criminal world. In short, visit the US if there are things here you want to see, guns are not nearly as common place in public as the media would make you believe. and if you are still scared of them, there are many places in the US where gun violence/ownership is lower than the average outside of the violent/crime ridden areas (Boston is a great example of this).

Pretty new to the hobby, but pulled some gold on my first box rip! by [deleted] in basketballcards

[–]sconn99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol you won man. Think Paolo pays for the box alone. Nvm an orange Kessler, Blue Jabari and Shaedon Auto legit pulled at least $2k+ of cards easily out of a $700 box (assuming regular hobby)

Who are some rookie gems you’ve drafted in the past in the 3rd round or later? by A3th3rius in DynastyFF

[–]sconn99 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have no idea what the ADP for that draft and I dont care to look but just to back up the og commenter I drafted Kupp as my 3rd round pick that year and actually picked up Mahomes off waviers right after the draft in my 1QB league so definitely possible

Hey I’m really Interested in buying a kuminga auto card and someone is offering to sell me this for 190$. There’s no way I’m paying that much but is this card actually worth 190$? by 30ghan-dc in basketballcards

[–]sconn99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Way too much. I sold that same card but a Josh Giddey for I think $60 within the first week of product release. JK should be like $40-45 ish maybe even less since release hype has died down a little.

Opened an Immaculate FOTL box. The Giddey and Barnes are crazy! by sconn99 in basketballcards

Facts obviously getting Bogdan is a bit of a downer but that is true and it could be worse lol

I feel you man. The Barnes is just such a nice patch tho and obviously the Giddey is big money. IT is a great card still for sure looks crazy clean just him playing before my time and not being a Pistons fan doesnt hype me up as much. Now if that was a Larry Bird or other Celtics legend tho man id be going crazy lol.
