BACKAnnouncing This Year’s Panini Kid Reporter: Louis DiVito
Written by Isaiah Lucas
Congratulations to this year’s Panini Kid Reporter contest winner: Louis DiVito!
Louis, a nine-year-old Massachusetts native, will make the cross-country journey to California for Super Bowl LX, embarking on a week-long adventure that’ll give him the ultimate experience of being a media member, along with a super fan. His winning entry came from 2025 Donruss Elite NFL Trading Cards.
On Monday, Louis will brush shoulders with some of the biggest writers in the business while taking part in Media Day festivities. He’ll team up with Super Bowl-winning quarterback Trent Dilfer to interview players on both the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots. The rest of his week will feature him, along with his father (John), attending Panini activations like the 2026 NFL Experience and Prizm Lounge, along with the Pro Football Hall of Fame Brunch. They’ll cap the week off with a trip to Levi’s Stadium for the big game on Sunday.
With Louis being a New England fan, this could turn into an even more special experience if the team comes out on top. While most longtime Pats fans are used to seeing Super Bowl wins, this one would mark the boy’s first time witnessing his favorite squad lift the Lombardi.
Here’s a little more information on Louis: A third-grader at Westminster Elementary School, he has a stout card collection of his own, featuring stars and legends from his favorite New England-area teams. He’s also quite the athlete, participating in basketball, hockey, baseball, swimming and flag football. He’s known for his nonstop energy, something that’ll certainly help him shine at his role of Kid Reporter. Good luck, and congratulations, Louis!
