I started out with cards but it is a slippery slope into memorabilia once you get fully engaged. It's easy to start pickup up 'companion pieces' to cards such as: original artwork for the card, original photos used for the card, wrappers for card sets, inserts used in packs, card boxes, mail-ins, etc.

Once you start doing that and get attached to particular sets, eras, players, leagues, or teams. its easy to start wanting other items associated with them: programs, ticket stubs, autographs, team photos, etc, etc, etc!

And if you bite the bullet and get a display case or two, you're gonna want enough items around a theme to fill your case with interesting stuff so will broaden your collecting to fulfill this wish.

Be careful card collectors! Again, a slippery slope into memorabilia.
