Overwhelming Demand for Jack Hoffman’s “Star Rookie” Card Leads to Production of Actual Upper Deck Cards for Fans of “Team Jack” and Nebraska Football

 

By Chris Carlin

 

Upper Deck worked in concert with the Hoffman family and the University of Nebraska to come up with a way we could create traditional collectible card of this inspirational young man. Based on those discussions Upper Deck has been given approval to create a 5×7 version of Jack’s Upper Deck “Star Rookie” card that will have his stats, information about the “Team Jack” charity and his story.

 

And the copy on the back of the card will really be his story. Jack Hoffman sat down this weekend to write the copy for his first-ever trading card out himself.

The hits keep rolling in for the Spring Game MVP.

 

Little Jack and His Family go to Washington

By Randy York

 

So what does a 7-year-old pediatric brain cancer patient do after thrilling 60,000 fans at Nebraska’s Spring Football Game, plus nearly 8 million YouTube viewers, with an inspiring 69-yard touchdown run? After throwing out the ceremonial first pitch at Saturday’s nationally televised Nebraska-Michigan softball game in Lincoln, Jack flew to Washington D.C. with his dad, Andy, mom, Bri and sisters Ava 5, and Reese, 2.

 

On Sunday, the Hoffmans took in the sights of our Nation’s Capital in advance of a Monday noontime scheduled visit with President Barack Obama at the White House. “We were thrilled to get invited, and we hope it all comes off,” Andy Hoffman, Jack’s dad, said Sunday night.
