It's the offseason and I'm bored. I'm sure this has been done before but oh well.

 

What are some of the coolest pieces of memorabilia you own? Colts/NFL or otherwise.

 

I'll start

- Tony Dungy personalized autograph on a SB 41 program (cousin got it for me who works with him at NBC Sports)

- Derek Jeter autograph on a bat I got in person at my first baseball game in 1997

- Edgerrin James autograph photo I got on amazon lightning deal

- Several Heisman ceremony items including an all access pass, replica letter containing the winner's name that year, press kit, and several pics with former winners

- Had a Yogi Berra autographed ball but it faded

- Henrik Lundqvist signed hockey puck I got on amazon lightning deal, also a calendar from the mid 90's filled with several Rangers autographs (not sure who, but one is possibly Mark Messier)

- Harry Carson signed football from his HoF induction in 2006, the ball is a special Giants ball but doesn't contain the two most recent SBs they won

- John Madden signed mini football I got in person at the last ever MNF game on ABC

- My ticket to SB 46, as well as my ticket to Derek Jeter's last home game

- Joey Chestnut (you read that right) signed photo I got on amazon lightning deal

 

What do you got??

1998 Topps Mint 10 Condition 

 

Peyton Manning Rookie Card 

Signed by the legend himself and my wife and I's engagement picture signed also. With a hand written letter from Manning to top it all off. 

 

For my wedding present my wife stole my prized possession, wrote a letter to Peyton about my special needs son and I, sent him a wedding invitation, mailed it all to Denver Broncos Training Facility. 

 

Peyton then followed suite with the above items. On my wedding day I cried for more than one reason needless to say. Lol.

I've got a framed picture of Manning breaking the TD record in 2004 along with our game ticket in there as well.  

 

I've also a framed cover the Sports Illustrated from the Super Bowl win over the Bears.  We have our Super Bowl tics to that game as well but have not done anything with them yet.

I have Hulk Hogans autograph. (And a few other wrestlers...I was young).

 

Not something I own and sort of a "claim to fame" but my father is the tattoo artist that done some of the work of the Colts Fan and forum member (name is escaping me) who was getting the Championship Team autographs tattooed on his body. They featured him getting Bob Sanders autograph tattooed during the SuperBowl coverage when we played the Saints. My Dad done that one.

What is your home address and what time will you not be home?:peek:

LOL, actually I am hoping that when Andrew wins a Super Bowl - I can somehow manage to get his signature on the Unitas/Maning ball too and make it a trifecta for the ages!

Lots of cool stuff mentioned in this thread. I'm a memorabilia/material history nut! I just wish I could afford to won more. 

 

I have an autographed Jack Youngblood picture. My aunt dated him.

 

I have a ton of football cards from the 90s. I've looked up the worth of a few that I thought would be worth something but didn't strike gold. I'll get around to looking up all of them 1 day.

 

What I lack in memorabilia I make up for in stories though. If you'll remember, I work at the biggest night club in town. I've met tons of football players. So far only 1 (Cam Newton) wasn't totally nice. The coolest meeting was BJ Daniels, who was the 3rd QB on the Seahawks SB team. He let me hold his ring, which means for a few seconds I actually held a SB ring.

An autographed Colts team ball, with the signatures of Manning/EJ/Reggie Wayne/Dwight Freeney/Dallas Clark/Polian/Saturday/Dom Rhodes/Glenn/ and about 20 or so more past Colts players on it as well. 

 

An autographed Eric Dickerson football from his HoF induction. 

 

An autographed official jersey of Mannings rookie season(Framed)

 

#1 Rookie cards for Marshal Faulk/Marvin Harrison/EJ(#1&2)

 

Troy Aikman's best rookie card. 

 

Autographed Nolan Ryan baseball. 

 

Went up to Indy 2 years in a row, and stood outside of the convention center to get autographs at the combine. Got the likes of Bree's/Brady and many other good-great players to sign. Even got a Heisman autograph. 

 

And much more, just don't want to type everything. I haven't collected in a very long time, most of my collection came around the time the Colts Tripletts were running roughshod over defenses. :)

An actual game football my dad caught in the grand strand of Baltimore Memorial Stadium.

The ball was kicked and my father caught it. Before the NFL put up nets in the endzones.

December 11th, 1971. Miami Dolphins 3 at Baltimore Colts 14

 

I believe this was the game in which Mike Curtis tackled the drunken fan.
