Upper Deck Gears Up for NFL Experience/Super Bowl Card Show
Upper Deck will be giving away assorted single trading cards from its 2008 NFL SP Rookie Edition and NFL SP Authentic launches from earlier this season at the NFL Experience/Super Bowl Card Show Jan. 24-25 and Jan. 29-Feb. 1. Participate in any of Upper Deck’s interactive games and attendees could win various prizes like Upper Deck sample packs, fat packs, pull-string backpacks and more. Daily raffle prizes will be awarded during each day of the show.
As one of the league’s only football card manufacturers, Upper Deck will once again be conducting its popular foil pack wrapper redemption program during the course of the show. Fans who purchase three packs of any 2008 Upper Deck football products with the exception of Upper Deck First Edition can exchange their three foil packs for one of four exclusive Upper Deck NFL Experience trading cards spotlighting standout players from the hometown Buccaneers: Antonio Bryant, Derrick Brooks, Jeff Garcia and Aqib Talib.
In addition, Upper Deck will be conducting a second level of wrapper redemptions for a special set titled “The Franchise” highlighting six NFL rookie standouts from this past season including: ROY Matt Ryan, Jonathan Stewart, Chris Johnson, Matt Forte, Joe Flacco and Darren McFadden. To obtain the entire six-card set, collectors need to simply purchase five packs of any 2008 Upper Deck football products at the show (with the exception of Upper Deck First Edition) and bring their unopened foil packs to the booth for redeeming purposes.
To get football fans in the competitive spirit, Upper Deck will have its personalized trading cards station up and running during the second week of the show (Jan. 29, 30 and 31). Lastly, Upper Deck will be proudly displaying its Toy ‘R Us-exclusive line of NFL All-Star Vinyl figures at the booth. Newly sculpted players will include Tom Brady, Donovan McNabb, Eli Manning, Peyton Manning, LaDainian Tomlinson and Tony Romo.
