Upper Deck Unveils Crowd-Pleasing Lineup of Football Giveaways at Super Bowl XLIII Festivities
Company’s interactive booth at ‘NFL Experience’ will be a popular destination once again for show attendees!
North Las Vegas, NV (January 21, 2009) – The AFC and NFC champions are now primed and ready for Super Bowl XLIII. The AFC’s defensive juggernaut Pittsburgh Steelers are ready to square off against the NFC’s high-flying Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, Feb. 1, at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay, Florida. And the off-the-field action at this year’s NFL Experience interactive theme park and football card show surrounding the league’s biggest game will be just as intense as the Upper Deck Company is ready to stoke the fires of passionate football collectors with its dazzling lineup of booth activities, giveaways and prizes.
During each day of the show – on Jan. 24 and 25, and again from Jan. 29 through Feb. 1 – Upper Deck will be a major presence at the 18th Annual NFL Experience. To get things rolling, the industry leader will be giving away assorted single trading cards from its 2008 NFL SP Rookie Edition and NFL SP Authentic launches from earlier this season. Participate in any of Upper Deck’s interactive games and you 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; winners need not be present to win.
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. Collectors should bring their unopened foil packs to the booth, open them and keep their cards and get a show exclusive in the process. Upper Deck only wants the foil pack. In addition, Upper Deck will be conducting a second level of wrapper redemptions for a special set entitled “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. Supplies are limited, so time is of the essence.
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) where armchair quarterbacks young and old, male and female can get their very own personalized NFL Experience trading cards produced from Upper Deck. This popular function will also be free of charge to show attendees who will only need to wait a few minutes before walking away with their very own football card.
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.
