SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – As the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots prepare to face off Sunday at Levi’s Stadium, tens of thousands of fans are celebrating this weekend \u2013 along with some high-profile guests.<\/p>\n
Tom Brady store opens <\/p>\n
Football legend and Bay Area boy Tom Brady cut the ribbon Friday evening on his brand new store on 3rd Street in San Francisco, CardVault.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The shop features sports cards, trading cards and other collectibles, and is the 12th location across the country.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The former Patriots quarterback and San Mateo native says the store’s location right across from Oracle Park makes it extra special.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“It’s our flagship location. It’s right across from where the Giants play. They were my team growing up. I was a freshman in high school when Barry Bonds came to the Giants.\u00a0And I was the biggest Giants fan, biggest baseball fan. To have this home for our business across the street from the home of the Giants is pretty special,” said Brady.<\/p>\n
I asked Brady what it’s like to be home for the Super Bowl, surrounded by Patriots fans.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“You know, it’s what it’s all about. That’s what sports does. It’s all about community,” said Brady. “This game coming up on Sunday is a game that I can’t wait to watch.<\/p>\n
Brady confirmed he will be in attendance at Levi’s Stadium on Sunday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“I’ll be there. I’ll be there. It’s going to be exciting,” said Brady.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There were plenty of die-hard Patriots fans gathered outside the store, hoping to catch a glimpse of their hero, Tom Brady.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“I don’t think I could speak. I grew up watching him, so it’d be surreal, for sure,” said Jacob Dunkley.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“He’s meant so much to the organization for 25, 30 years. It’s an unbelievable experience to watch him play,” said Ben Rawlins.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Shaq’s Fun House <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal hosted a big party Friday night at Cow Palace in Daly City. “Shaq’s Fun House” returned to Super Bowl weekend for the eighth year in a row, featuring DJ Tiesto, Rapper T-Pain and others.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Thousands of people showed up to the party, including plenty of A-listers like Ludacris, Benson Boone, DIplo, Rob Gronkowski, Jon Hamm, Julian Edelman and Kevin Hart.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In addition to a big party inside, the event also featured a full carnival with rides and games.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Shaq’s Fun House kept the party going until 2 a.m. Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
