What's your best and/or worst piece of sports memorabilia, and how'd you get it...

[Dougnsalem]

I really screwed up when I did this post. What's show and tell, without the show part? There's some pretty cool stuff I haven't seen, or heard of before. I'd like to see a pic of HCP, wearing his hat

I don't collect memorabilia really. But I do have a Greg Oden signed draft hat from draft night! Love it!

Next to Slys dancer....

I have a former Blazer Dancer chained in my basement, I'd rather not say how I got her.

Best three are this t-shirt I got from Brandon Roy before he went off against the Nuggets on Christmas, a team signed ball won on S2, and another team signed ball my daughter won.

We know, she was the original and passed away 20 years ago....your basement must smell like embalming fluid...we know dogs love to dig up stuff

It brings the free pizza to section 318 or it gets the hose again...

Favorite is my signed pendergraph photo of him dunking. My buddy met him in portland during an event and i was a huge pendergraph fan so he made sure to bring it back for me. I loved how be psyched up the team pregame.

Least favorite is a toss up between my old oden t shirt and my lamarsha jersey. Both have oil stains from previous oil changes.

I still have a card collection from when i was a kid, but no l*ker cards, i burned them all during 2000 wcf.

I have a basketball signed by Lillard that was given to me by the members of this forum at our last Meet and Greet.

Best three are this t-shirt I got from Brandon Roy before he went off against the Nuggets on Christmas, a team signed ball won on S2, and another team signed ball my daughter won.

WTF? How do I get one of these balls??? THAT, would be awesome! I'd ask Sly to put me in his will, but I don't want to wait 50 years to get it......

I get swag from the Blazers and give it out on the forum a few times a year.

50 years in dog years is like 2.5 years. Enjoy sly's balls sir!

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I have that 2014-15 team pennant signed by the whole team, most of whom were gone by the time I won it. That's probably the best swag I have.

 

[DreamKillah]

My goofiest piece of Blazer memorabilia is a Bill Walton beanie baby that hit me on the back of my head when Bennett Salvatore ejected Pippen from the game . . .

 

[BlazerWookee]

Oh, and my Rudy Fernandez GI Joe's bobblehead came in a box with what looks like some high-quality professional photos, but they didn't bother to photoshop out his backne...

 

[Pinwheel1]

I don't collect much memorabilia other than tickets for great concerts and great sporting events. Among my favorites are tickets to the first ever Dream Team game. It was fun seeing them talk about it on the Dream Team Documentary knowing I was there with great seats.

And I still have my Blazer championship mug from 76-77.

That was my first-ever game at the Rose Garden. Did not go to another until Trader Bob was out. Still have that Walton beanie.

Worst piece is my signed Oden jersey. The team was selling it at a discount after his injury and figured it to be a decent gamble. Should have paid attention to the vibes he put out at the season ticket holder party earlier where he acted like he was being punished by having to appear. In comparison, Raef was cool as hell downing pitchers of Bud Light.

 

[Harry's Raincoat]

Worst: Full-price Oden Jersey!!

Best: Many
a) Framed Oregonian Front page from June 6, 1977!
b) Original pennant from 1976-77 Season
c) Signed basketball personalized for me, from John Wooden UCLA
d) Program from NBA Draft 1992 held in MC/Portland
e) Complete Topps collection of cards for 1972 Dolphins!

All are special to me!

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

I have the net from when jlprk's high school team won the state title.

 

[Mediocre Man]

My uncle was the Raiders team chaplain back in the 70's, and gave me mountains of memorabilia. I had a chance to visit the team several times, and have a picture of John Madden, Ken Stabler and myself which is my favorite.

I don't care who you are, that's funny right there...

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

A few weeks after winning the championship in 1977 my family attended a dinner and auction hosted by the Glickmans. Up for auction was the game worn jersey of Bobby Gross from game 6! My Dad being a huge Gross fan bid and won this jersey. It was given to me a few years back on my 50th birthday! Somewhere I have a game worn headband of Seattle's Slick Watts! LOL

 

[Jon]

Cliff Robinson signed jersey from when he went to my dads work, signed Terry Porter cards from when i met him at electronics universe (?).

(sigh) a greg oden signed hat from when i saw him at a bowling alley his 2nd year.

 

[BlayZa]

as im in nz, memorabilia is hard to come by, especially the types youre all talking about, and ive never been drawn to 2nd hand in person signed things, thats their memory etc not mine.

but in saying that, as most of you would know, i have a massive damon stoudamire card collection, there's like still 4-5 of us which battle it out on ebay for all the high level stuff, i guy in Hungary, some dude in Japan (i think), and american, a kiwi (me), and some other random. we're all constantly taking turns at sniping each other.

but for sure, id have the best collection sth of the equator at least ive tried to track the other guys down to see if i can get some pics of their collection, but its rather imposs with ebay often.

in addition to cards, i have 4 blazers caps and a ds jersey. used to have a rider one too, no idea where that went :/

 

[DaLong]

Best: Signed Steve Largent and Cortez Kennedy posters that I inherited when my brother moved out when I was in high school. Still have it 12 years later. Thought about giving it back as a wedding present but decided against it because he left them in a state that could've compromised their structural stability.

Worst: A Minnesota Wild pint glass that I inherited from an old college roommate when he moved out and forgot it. Many a beers have been drank out of it though.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Best: blazers pennant signed by the entire roster from the 98-99 season.

Have a framed signed picture of dennis rodman. He was one of my favorite players growing up. Got it as a bday present on my 18th bday.

Worst: signed limited print greg oden rookie card i got from a pack of cards.

 

[kjironman1]

My worst piece i threw away and my best piece my wife threw away so maybe i am not the best guy to talk about this subject with.

 

[BBert]

Ok, these aren't on my list. I have wanted a championship mug for YEARS though. (I just wasn't gonna pay 20 bucks for one....) Today, my daughter and I hit Goodwill. I tell her to look out for Blazer stuff (again....) I FINALLY scored a mug for 5 bucks, and an awesome, strechy sports shirt for 3.50!View attachment 9723

I have that mug.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I have that mug.

Unless Mrs Bert just gave it to the Goodwill. :MARIS61:

 

[BBert]

Unless Mrs Bert just gave it to the Goodwill. :MARIS61:

Ya know. That thought did cross my mind.

 

[Shaboid]

Best: My grandpa gave me two signed balls. Dale Murphy and Bob Feller. The Murphy ball has 3 other signatures on it too, I don't know whose they are.

Questionable: I somehow have one of those Walton dolls, still in the package.

Worst: A Ken Griffey Junior forgery.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Best...memories of the night I slept with an NBA player.

Worst....the Herpes I got that night.

I think that was me, I'm getting old and my memory is foggy.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Was it the same person that @KingAlbertoJrSpeed had sex with?

Could be, he said he'd slept with someone on this board. I figured it was HCP but I didn't ask.

 

[Uncle Spliffy]

I picked up a Nolan Ryan rookie card at a card show when I was around 12 years old. I think I paid around 20 or 30 bucks for it but he was one of my favorite players and I was pretty excited about finding one. I remember pricing it when I was around college age, and thought that if i sold it that it could sure help pay for my tuition. I think at that time it was valued at around $200 or so. I decided to keep it, and still have it now, I just read an article the other day about how prices for the card has skyrocketed in the last couple years. I'm guessing my kid will get it when I die and she can sell it to help her buy a house or something!
