Was working Monday's White Sox @ Angels game on the upper concourse and was surprised to see this in the parking lot.
It was a Topps pop-up tent with the Topps Truck behind it. Of course I had get closer and check out what was going on.
The Topps staff were giving away 5-card sample packs of 2023 Topps flagship baseball cards. Guests could also win additional sample packs playing a game at the tent. Guests could also exchange cards for others as shown below.
Here's some pictures of the Topps truck. It was my first time seeing it in person.

The Topps Truck stops at each MLB ball park for one day except during the All-Star break when it will be in Seattle for about four days.
I was able to obtain a sample pack of cards and then won two more.
The "Derby Duel" pack is actually the reverse of the Tim Anderson pack. In addition to the cards, they also gave me a keychain.
Near as I can tell, each sample pack has only Series 1 cards. I already have a complete set of 2023 Series 1 and 2 (and quite a few dupes FS/T) so I don't plan on opening these sample packs. They may end up as trade bait or maybe small prizes in a future contest. Still, for me it was a very nice and memorable day at work.
Have you ever seen the Topps Truck up close or are you planning to see it during the tour?
