Only kinda cool thing I got randomly after a Michigan football game back in like 92. Went to watch a game at the Big House in like September and bought some random Michigan logo seat cushion cause the bench seats were uncomfortable as hell. Michigan won big and afterwards me and my friend decided to wander over to Crisler Arena just to check it out. We hear some people playing so we go in and look and sure as hell the Fab 5 (and the rest of the UM basketball team) are all in there shooting around. So I went down after they were done and talked to Chris Webber and had him sign the cushion that my ass had been sitting on for 3 hours.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03914758963177267247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-79050299910999838802007-06-05T15:20:00.000-04:002007-06-05T15:20:00.000-04:00Why would Bob McAdoo sign the same ball twice?Why would Bob McAdoo sign the same ball twice?Brian in Oxfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16053368055698118199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-71613015331102575332007-06-05T15:19:00.000-04:002007-06-05T15:19:00.000-04:00Not mine, but my dad has a team ball from [I belie...Not mine, but my dad has a team ball from [I believe] the 1984-85 Lakers.

In fact, my first "job" was sorting baseball cards in a shop when I was 7. I got paid in product, which was fine by me.<BR/><BR/>I've probably got over a million cards, plus figurines, pictures, posters, autographs, etc. But there are two things that stand out from the rest of my collection:<BR/><BR/>1) I have an official MLB World Series Baseball... from 1994. The year there was no World Series. It's pristine, in a hard plastic case, and obviously, never used. There were probably fewer than 1000 of these produced, so to me, it's pretty cool.<BR/><BR/>2) Some of you may have already heard the story, so I'll just post <A HREF="http://bigd29x.blogspot.com/2003/12/once-again-my-friends-my-internet.html" REL="nofollow">a link to it here</A>, but I've got 2 unused, untorn tickets from Game 3 of the 1999 ALCS, Pedro v. Clemens @ Fenway. They're not worth much, but he story to go along with them is one I tell all the time.Big Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11478232002387175988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-26231693898427879672007-06-05T13:25:00.000-04:002007-06-05T13:25:00.000-04:00I have a piece of the field from the Ohio State/Mi...I have a piece of the field from the Ohio State/Michigan game in 2003 (the year OSU won the national title).
