Seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady made a special stop in Downtown Brooklyn this week, and local 5th and 6th graders got the ultimate surprise. To celebrate the grand opening of his new collectibles store, CardVault by Tom Brady, the football legend paid a visit to the Prospect Schools Downtown Campus. Joined by CardVault co-founder Chris Costa, Brady spent time in the school’s auditorium talking with students about their shared love of sports and the hobby of collecting.
