When Upper Deck Series One hits, it is like a card collecting international holiday. Fans love to chase the Young Guns rookie cards and put together sets while discovering inserts and even Easter Egg surprises. This is a product where pack purchasers step up to open boxes and box purchasers will often try a full case. To open all of that product takes time, so many collectors will take a vacation day for the release and make an experience out of it. Upper Deck is happy to help make that process a little easier by providing collectors with a simple excuse template they can use with their boss*:

Many shops like Dave & Adam’s Cardworld will host break nights with special giveaways and prizes so make sure to check with your shop because even if you can’t make it out during the day, many shops will run promotions at night.

Also, many fans will be fired up to finish off their sets at the 2018 Sport Card & Memorabilia Expo in Toronto that weekend. Don’t miss everything Upper Deck has in store for fans there!

*Please note: Do not use this with a mean boss. If you have a mean boss, perhaps start coughing excessively today and make it worse each day leading up to Wednesday. Then you could call in sick on Thursday morning and as long as you DO NOT post anything on social media about your box breaking experience until the weekend, you should be good.
