Talking Major mojo I forgot I had!

Ok, short story first. I use to collect baseball. Then in '99 when Ricky was a rookie with the saints, I dove in head first. I collected almost every single card he has out from inserts to low numbered to some kick butt gu and autos. From all 4 contenders to all 3 sp auth, to the edge leather back that had the huge swatch of fb with 90% of the lettering from the ball. The only thing I didnt have were 1/1's.
So, remembering I still had a stash of cards left that I didnt get rid of during his last good season, I dug them out and when I saw this card I remembered exactly what I had-
1999 Collectors Edge Masters holosilver rc /3500

It was given to me by a friend as a funny joke. Being that I needed it for my collection I gladly accepted. Little did I know the numbering would hold something significant for the future. While I was putting together sets of my wwe chrome case breaks, it popped in my head that I "should" still have this card, and I did. What makes this major mojo? Nothing really however the first part of the numbering is totally legit I assure you as if its one thing I wouldnt bs on, its my past Ricky Williams collection-


If you wanna hate, thats fine but theres no photoshop work to it. Totally legit and funnier now more than ever.

Frank, what's the significance of the number 420 and how does that relate to Ricky?
