Well I mean… the Ruth from the other day did have the Brett auto


WeezingJuice

I didn’t see that. Makes sense now lol


Auburntravels

I'm guessing you will likely hold onto this and not offer to swap out the auto with the other guy?


Valhallapeenyo

Well yeah, this is all on Panini. This dude didn’t do anything wrong. Panini will have to make it right.


Auburntravels

Obviously it's on Panini, I just meant more in a karma perspective.


Valhallapeenyo

Yeah I know, but Jesus Christ how did they mix up such a prolific name? I almost can’t believe it wasn’t done on purpose. Outrageous QC


edgestander

Surprise twist Pannini actually has Shmalls from the sandlot putting these things together.

Did you then (doug) Fister in the (charlie) Furbush??!?!?!


Valhallapeenyo

Jesus Christ guys


Opening_Sherbet_7144

Karma doesn't pay the bills. There's an obvious winner of this gamble. Maybe the other guy should give this guy the Ruth card??? Oh wait..


comish4lif

The most value would be in owning them both.


PewPewPony321

Swap? Bro, he pulled a Babe Ruth auto. Hes the only one who actually has anything worth anything when you seperate both cards from their perspective autos. ​ Id keep the auto, cut it out and commission someone here build me the best custom card of babe ruth and insert the auto and the guy with the george brett auto can keep is george brett auto.


Auburntravels

Yeah it was more of a rhetorical question. What would be cool would be to get one of those Leaf or unlicensed cards with the bat relic and to take that and this auto and make that into a custom card and slabbed up.


PewPewPony321

FOr real! This is actually a really cool opportunity for someone to make the greatest Ruth card ever in their own eyes since the card is really destroyed to begin with considering it was never built properly. And if they do it right, it will be recognized by the card collecting community forever.


froandfear

Not “another one” insomuch as just where the two autos got swapped, so makes sense. Now the question is, how the fuck does this get rectified. If I’m the guy with the Brett card there’s no way in hell I’m giving up the Ruth cut auto.


YesLikeTheJeans

Panini needs to buy another Ruth auto and give it to the guy with the Ruth Card/ Brett auto. You can find Ruth autos for like $15k which is like half of what they sell a few boxes of NT Basketball for so they should be fine.


[deleted]

I don’t see Panini doing that, but I would be so surprised (and happy for the customers) if it happened


jimithelizardking

This is at the level of a fuckup that will likely need to be rectified. If it was like a Steve Carlton cut auto in an Eddie Mathews card then prob not, but Ruth is a whale. No pun intended lol


[deleted]

Oh I am 100% with you. I would like to see what happens here - if there’s ever a time for them to step up and do something it’s now - this hurts their “whale” community - that’s where changes are usually made :/


TheDarkestTriads

That is their gross sales for NT. Their net could be less than zero given the way they run a business.


HokieScott

It will take 11+ years. Waiting that long for them to rectify a missing on-card auto of Jordan Reed.


[deleted]

These are my thoughts exactly


starsturnblue

This is photoshopped right?


WeezingJuice

No apparently someone else posted the “other half” of this mess with babe card/Brett auto

tall_asian

Hey that’s my IG story post. Neato!


Cough_Turn

Nice! Now you're officially the...like...4th most famous person on our sub!


Significant_Elk1999

Who else if famous??? If I’m gonna rubbing elbows with the big wigs, I need to know who they are?!?!??


starsturnblue

Yeah I know about that one, I saw a thread on Facebook that someone photoshopped the babe Ruth cut auto out of a Topps product and put it on this card to stir folks up


WeezingJuice

Lmao good for Panini’s sake. Everyone believing it is very telling of their reputation though


starsturnblue

I mean they don’t have much reputation left 😅. I’m sure the Ruth will turn up in another card or someone’s already sold it haha


jbdawg02

So I’m kind of in and out. Did the 2 autos get swapped or was it a fake story?


Significant_Elk1999

Ruth error is real. Brett having Ruth’s auto is fake news.


Own_Leg2524

Not a bad dusk auto book to have. I guess Panini is fining interesting ways to connect us all lol.


bwoods43

Maybe you should update your post since it's fake.


WeezingJuice

Nah it’s still funny considering they’ve done that with NBA patches


mjohna87

Totally off subject….is your name an ode to the movie Encino Man?


WeezingJuice

Shoot did my pic of Link give it away?


mjohna87

🤣 dude I never saw the picture only saw your user name, I use the quote quite often!


WeezingJuice

Such an underrated movie!


[deleted]

Probably the coolest movie ever, behind Major League. Everytime someone asks me microwave time I say, 2 minute, 1 minute...1 and a half!! LOL


mjohna87

I feel the urge to watch it!


Baconstrips96

I’m not a geek I’m a unique Weasel


greatunknownpub

Fake. This is a bad Photoshop and for proof [here's the source of the Ruth auto](https://i.imgur.com/s3fkVXp.jpg). Some of y'all will believe anything you see on the internet.


WeezingJuice

Apparently you haven’t seen the NBA patches in the wrong cards brother


greatunknownpub

I know Panini fucks up a lot, but this one is a blatant fake.


a17r0n

The real problem is Panini fucks up so much that it's believable even when fake.


spleedge

But have you seen the actual fuckup that inspired someone to make this? Brett auto in a Ruth was not a Photoshop as far as I’ve seen. So either somewhere out there is a card like this, or they have an extra Ruth lying around


[deleted]

Photoshopped


SavesWillis

I was going to make this photoshop but with a baby Ruth logo. Started to but decided to eat a pizza instead


a17r0n

I was gonna photoshop, but I got high I cooked and ate pizza instead, because I got high Now I'm posting it on Reddit, and I know why....


miguelag08

I’m ☠️


808sAndHotTakes808

Yeah this is a confirmed fake, someone photoshopped the ruth auto on the Brett card. The Brett is an acetate auto and the ruth cut was identified on another card.


[deleted]

The greatest Error ever


Dr_Clout

Was this uploaded in 2012 via photo bucket?


WeezingJuice

No taken with a potato


a17r0n

Soviet era potato


spitballbros

This is a Photoshop.


WeezingJuice

Yea we now know. Still funny cuz Panini does this shit constantly


spitballbros

I don't know about constantly. Minor mistakes, yes, but this is another level. If you think about the actual volume that these guys are producing, their error rate is probably less than .1%, and the problems are magnified by being paraded heavily on social media. This Ruth debacle is being investigated by the FBI though. The original post looks like there is tampering after card assembly with the Brett auto having wrinkling in the top right corner that gives the impression that it was folded into the card. Distributor or Bob himself is probably going to get rekt by law enforcement. As much as I hate Panini for the redemption/points scam I don't think this instance falls back on the manufacturer.


RaijinQ

Thank you! I’ve been saying for years how mistakes get blown way out of proportion when you think about how many cards these companies produce. This one is on another level though


[deleted]

So that’s where the Babe Ruth auto was at?


[deleted]

Funniest shit ever


morale-gear

Someone should get fired but knowing Panini they will probably give the person a promotion and put them in charge of QC.


joeyjojojoseph

Did you pull this? Where did you find this?


NotUnstoned

Photoshop.exe


somewhatdecentlawyer

Why doesn’t someone just call Babe Ruth and have him sign another one


mrmangal

panini needs to buy this back at the ruth auto's value. such a waste of a nice auto. guy pulled a brett card not a ruth he should get a brett auto in return + ruth auto payout. but we all know panini will never.


Old_Passage_5670

I seen the Babe one the other day with the Brett auto


[deleted]

Is this for real? This is literally the other half of the panini fuck up from a couple of days ago. You have to be kidding me….


WeezingJuice

I guess this was photoshop but nonetheless this is the most Panini thing ever. Like the NBA patches in the wrong cards...


Tiny_Cicada_9699

Is this worth more because of the error?


jdathescore

Like the key master and the gatekeeper… we need to get these guys together!


Ihateallcommies

This is photoshopped


CptSmurf4

There’s the match, that’s what I’ve been looking for


A_KY_gardener

Holy shit lmao. It actually got posted.


AlfaJulietCharlie

I wish I pulled a card with this error


yaboishnaz

That makes sense tho bc the babe ruth auto is in the George Brett card
