The Easter Bunny also brought a few packs of 2009 Upper Deck Series 1 and a pack of 2009 Topps Series 1. This was one of five Phillies cards within the Topps pack, and I've already addressed this particular feat here.The strange thing about this card is the Dodgers' fans in the background. This was definitely a night game, and Matt Stairs' home run happened in the 8th inning, long after the sun had set for the day. But the fans in the background (some even wearing sunglasses) appear to be basking in sunlight. Why would Topps replace the original L.A. night fans with L.A. daytime fans? Were the original background fans not appealing enough? Very strange.

Very interesting. How did you pick this up?
I'm just very observant . . .
We think maybe the people in the first few rows had already left the game? Or maybe there was a celebrity seated there and they didn't want him/her on the card?
