Anthony N.My most exciting time opening packs happened last year.
My son is 10. We've gone to baseball games together since he was 3 (we had Dodger season tickets for a few years, and hit a bunch of different parks every year) but last year was when he really started knowing a bunch of players. We bought a few boxes of Heritage and opened them up together.
We each open one pack at a time, and see who gets the best player. Packs these days occasionally have a GU piece or some premium in it, and he always seems to be the one that gets them. Seeing the absolute joy on his face when he opens a pack and sees a card of one of his favorite players- Gagne, LoDuca, Ortiz, etc is the biggest thrill possible.
