These are among the first autographed items from the nation's #1 ranked college recruits. Every piece of memorabilia includes TTA's patented authenticity assurance technology and digital certificates of authenticity (COA), giving each item a one-of-a-kind sharable and engaging life of its own. Fans can scan a QR code to access a video of the athlete signing the item, imersive content about the item's history, and a chance for exclusive, redeemable benefits that can be unlocked through engaging experiences and social activations. This technology not only verifies the signatures, but also enables a continuous way for fans to interact, engage and benefit long after a purchase is made. "Collaborating with TTA has helped empower our athletes, giving them new opportunities to connect and engage with their fans on a whole new level," said Matt Hibbs, CEO of Classic City Collective. "The response from the UGA team and the excitement from the fans is a testament to the changing landscape of college sports and athlete engagement." "Our latest collaboration is in direct response to overwhelming demand and fan excitement from the previous UGA collection," said TTA Co-Founder Dima Azarenko.
