Watching Deion Sanders turn around the University of Colorado football program has been fun to watch, but his relationship with one of the team’s longtime fans has been even cooler!

The team’s super fan, Peggy Coppom, jus turned 100-years-old, and to celebrate she was invited to crash Sanders’ press conference today (Nov. 19). They also unveiled a special line of apparel to honor Peggy and her late sister, Betty.

Fans will now be able to celebrate Peggy with special “Peggy100” custom apparel, headwear, and promotional items, including a replica of Peggy’s iconic gold Colorado Buffaloes sweatshirt.

“Peggy100” items will also feature a special logo featuring Peggy’s likeness as well as a tribute to Peggy’s beloved twin sister and fellow CU superfan Betty Hoover, who passed away in 2020.

Items are available now at participating stores throughout the month of November. You can also buy “Peggy100” merchandise online at the CU Buffs Online Team Shop, the Fanatics Team Store, and Rally House.
