NEW ORLEANS – The wall-to-wall football spectacular that is the Super Bowl XLVII NFL Experience kicked off in earnest Wednesday afternoon with a welcome address from New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham and Panini Authentic exclusive Andrew Luck, followed by a quick two-song set from Forever The Sickest Kids.
In the 24 hours that have passed since, the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center has been punctuated by tons of foot traffic from football-loving locals, a special visit from Forever The Sickest Kids lead singer Jonathan Cook in the Panini America booth and a healthy contingent of collectors standing in line to purchase the special Panini America Experience-exclusive sets.
For our part, the Panini America presence at this year’s show is quite large and includes two booths: One in the memorabilia show area and another in the kids zone just across from the Cartoon Network booth. In addition to selling the special sets, we’re also distributing free 2012 NFL Sticker Albums and a custom sticker sheet only available here.
For those of you who can’t be here with us this week, the following gallery is intended to help you feel like you are.
