Sports card collecting is coming to Cincinnati’s Great American Ball Park (GABP).
Ft. Mitchell’s Hit Seekers Sports Card Shop announced it’s expanding to open its second location inside the ball park this Reds season. It’s one of the first known card shops located in a major league stadium.
The shop says this new location is also an expansion of its relationship as an official Cincinnati Reds partner. It’ll be located in GABP’s main concourse along the third base line. Unique in its size and location, the expanded kiosk aims to attract card collectors of all ages and backgrounds and will offer a frequently updated variety of sports trading card boxes, raw cards and graded singles during all Reds home games. Along with Reds and other MLB cards, Hit Seekers will also have MLS, NFL and NBA cards.
Hit Seekers is owned by father-son duo Greg and Jake Rouse — Jake is also the co-founder of Braxton Brewing Company in Covington. The team says Hit Seekers is more than just selling collectibles; tt’s also about building community.
“At Hit Seekers, our mission is based on making baseball cards cool again,” Greg Rouse said in the release. “We are more than a broker to sell and trade collectibles through; we build community around the love of sports and the history behind them. We can’t wait to meet so many fellow collectors this season as we root for the home team at Great American Ball Park!”
Hit Seekers’ GABP kiosk will be open for every Reds home game. You can also visit its shop at 2501 Dixie Highway in Ft. Mitchell. Learn more at hitseekerscardbreaks.com.
