“Worked My B*tt Off”: Despite $3.97M Mansion in Colorado, Coach Prime Gets Real With Son Deion Sanders Jr. on Family Vacation

Despite a disappointing 4-8 record last season, Coach Prime hasn’t skipped a beat. He’s been all in for the Buffs, revamping the team with new recruits and leading them through intense spring practices. But Coach Prime knows the value of a break, too. He recently took his sons on a well-deserved vacation to the Dominican Republic.

While they soaked up the sun and explored the beaches, a little adventure was mixed in. Deion even had a hilarious “tropical escape” moment when he got lost for a few hours. Luckily, everything turned out okay, and the Sanders crew returned home with renewed energy. Now, Deion emphasizes that he pushed hard to give his sons this experience, even with their luxurious home offering a daily escape.

Coach Prime finds value beyond the mansion walls

Even for a busy coach like Deion Sanders, travel offers a chance to unwind and experience new things with his family. However, he also acknowledges the unique escape his luxurious home provides. “I love for them to experience places that they would have never experienced,” Sanders said. “You know we have all this at home right…why do we have to fly all the way across the country to experience what we experience at home?” he added. 

Sanders, a veteran of the game, takes pride in the life he’s built for his children. He said to Deion Sanders Jr., “I worked my b*tt off so that….you and your siblings could have all of this. We don’t need to take a jet across the country to experience this. We experience this right at the crib.” Sitting amidst his luxurious estate, Sanders acknowledges the privilege his success affords. Not many people can call their home their ultimate escape, but Sanders can. Why would someone want to escape what they “established as a dream?” Because Deion still values the importance of exposing his sons to new experiences beyond their fancy world.

The Sanders, from fields to million-dollar mansions

Coach Deion Sanders has certainly put in the hard work. Years playing in the NFL allowed him to achieve his real estate dream — a luxurious $3.97 million mansion in Longmont, Colorado. On 2.5 acres, the property boasts beautiful gardens with cherry, fig, pear, and apple trees. A circular driveway leads to the grand entrance, surrounded by stunning landscaping. The four-bedroom mansion has luxurious amenities, including a fireplace and a private terrace. Undoubtedly, this home is proof of Coach Prime’s years of dedication.

Recently, the three sons surprised their dad with a stunning 33-acre property outside of Boulder, Colorado. Now it’s pretty clear the Sanders family motto is “work hard and make your life a dream.” Let us know your thoughts on this in the comments below.
