A family's shared hobby is now a storefront inside Arlington's Choctaw Stadium. Ballpark Cards, co-owned by Rebecca Gallagher and her husband, Paul, has soft-opened at 1725 E. Randol Mill Road and plans a grand opening on Friday, November 13, according to the Fort Worth Report. Their son Davin helps with pricing.
The centerpiece is a 40-seat card bar where collectors sort through bins by sport or player. The shop sells full boxes and single cards, buys directly from Topps to stock the latest releases, and carries game-used and signed memorabilia contributed by the Texas Rangers.
Rebecca Gallagher says sales are growing steadily, though many game-day passersby are unsure what the shop sells. The family hopes to turn them into regulars and plans activations, with no specific events announced.
The report lists no store hours, so check the shop's Instagram page before visiting. Read More... |
