Texas Kindergartner Discovers Rare Paul Skenes Card

It’s not every day that a six-year-old makes waves in the baseball card collecting community, but Champ Stutts from Texas did just that. Little Champ, with a collection of over a thousand cards under his belt, recently uncovered a gem – a “one of one” Paul Skenes Onyx card that left even seasoned collectors green with envy.

The day of the big discovery seemed like any other ordinary Monday for Champ until he ripped open a pack of cards and stumbled upon the ultra-rare Paul Skenes card. Bursting with pure joy, Champ’s excitement was captured on video by his mom, Kristi, and shared on the family’s TikTok account, “Stutts Family Fun,” quickly making him an internet sensation.

The video didn’t just catch the attention of fellow collectors; LSU gymnast Livvy Dunne, who also happens to be Paul Skenes’ girlfriend, came across it. Livvy not only left a comment on the TikTok post but also shared the video with Skenes himself.

Thrilled by the discovery, Champ shared, “She showed it to Paul Skenes. And Paul Skenes commented. I think he said, ‘You’re coming to one of my baseball games.’” It wasn’t just Skenes who was excited; the Pittsburgh Pirates also jumped on the bandwagon of joy. They got in touch with the Stutts family, promising to send Champ a Paul Skenes jersey, solidifying this unforgettable moment for the young baseball fan.

For Champ, the love of baseball cards runs in the family. His dad, who kickstarted the hunt for a Skenes Topps Chrome rookie patch card last November, passed down his passion for collecting onto Champ. Now, Champ’s enthusiasm is spreading to his two-year-old brother, who insists on cuddling with cards every night.

Despite being a caring older brother, Champ sets his boundaries. “Bro, don’t bend it,” he sternly reminds his sibling, ensuring the more valuable cards maintain their pristine condition.

As the news of Champ’s remarkable find continues to spread, Texas Rangers fans have found a new team to cheer for. The heartwarming story of a young baseball enthusiast stumbling upon an extraordinary card has not only captured the attention of Paul Skenes, the Pirates, and fans worldwide but also serves as a reminder of the joy that the world of sports and collecting can bring.
