Sports Cards and Stuff | What's New?

Welcome to the Adventure Stadium Blog. I’m your host, Samantha. Did you know on average golf balls have 336 dimples? The dimples on a golf ball are designed to make it more aerodynamic, allowing it to travel further in the air. There are no official rules about how many dimples a golf ball can have and most feature between 300 and 500.

In sports this past week, we have had a lot going on. At the Ohio State Scarlet and Grey game, the halftime was a sweet tribute to the late Dwayne Haskins and his years there. His family is holding a memorial service April 22nd. 

The NFL has some amazing prospects for their draft this year. It is being held in Vegas and will be televised. Set your calendars for April 28-30. Will your favorite college player get picked? 

In baseball we had some amazing games. No dramatic upsets but over all, a great start to this years season. Our Astro’s were defeated, but that’s okay. We can still come back. 

In NASCAR the race at Bristol was a wild ride. What is normally a pavement track was turned into a slick dirt track. With a rain delay and a little confusion on the pitting rules the race over all was a blast to watch, from the comfort of my own home of course. 

In the store we have a lot of great new products and great incoming products. First we have a 2021-2022 Topps Chrome Overtime Elite Basketball Hobby. The first traditional set for the growing league, 2021-22 Topps Chrome OTE Overtime Elite Basketball highlights top NBA prospects on chromium stock.
