The seven time Super Bowl champion opened a Cardvault store by Tom Brady Premium Trading Card Store at the American Dream. It is the first flagship store located outside the Boston region.

Brady fans carrying New England patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers equipment flocked to the huge shopping center and filled the three levels just to have a legendary quarter of the Arrière. He spoke to the co-founder Chris Costa for a brief question and answer session before having a treat for fans.
He showed his legendary arm, pulling football balls in the crowd – showing no signs of rust. Fans were extremely enthusiastic about the possibility of catching football from one of the greatest players of all time.
Brady has talked about some of the favorite commercial cards of his collections. One, a double autograph with the legend of the 49ers of San Francisco, Joe Montana, and the other of the teammates Randy Moss, Julian Edelman, Rob Gronkowski and Wes Welker.
He first talked about his admiration for Montana.

“The 49ers of San Francisco were the team to beat in the NFL and they had a huge race from the early 1980s to the late 90s-they were a dynasty. When you grow in the bay region and you have that, it gives you a lot of reasons to love sport and love football,” he said. “And that’s where I fell in love with football, because of Joe Montana. And he’s still my idol today.
“He was an incredible quarter of a quarter and he set the tone every day for what greatness really looks like. And each professional football player, each quarter-arre who has ever played in the NFL understands how talented the Super Bowl appearances.
Brady then explained how he needed to count on his teammates when the patriots returned to defeat the Falcons of Atlanta in the Super Bowl Li.
The patriots dragged 28-3 when returned to darken the Falconons and win the title of the Super Bowl in overtime.

“We are in 2016, the end of the season, resolved to a match against the Falcons and it was quite tough down 28-3,” he recalls. “But I had a group of teammates who never left and we fought until the end. We played our butts in the last 18 minutes of this match and went from what would have been the most difficult loss of my career in the biggest victory that sport even saw.
“And we can make jokes with fans of the Falcons for the rest of our lives.”
Cardvault by Tom Brady offers rare and premium cards to exchange for amateurs who wish to raise their collections. The store also provides an environment for collectors of all kinds.
