  • Any Shocker memorabilia collectors out there?

    Hey guys,

    My father has been a Shocker fan for as long as I can remember. He was raised that way and I've been raised that way myself. I've already got my 2 boys running around the house yelling "rip 'em up, tear 'em up, let's go Shox!" on game days!

    Anyway, I was just wondering if there were any fellow Shocker memorabilia collectors out there? My dad and I have some pretty cool stuff, my basement living room is almost full! What is your most prized piece? I have a framed Yellow jersey from around 1974. I also have a poster I proudly point out to Chicken-hawk fans our victory in 1981 down in New Orleans!

    Would be pretty cool to maybe have a "swap" meeting sometime if there is enough interest out there.....

    Enjoy the holiday season and GO SHOX!!!

    I am not, but I know two persons, who are collectors.

    I will send your message to them.

      When my great uncle died, my brother and I found a team photo of the 1964 final 4 team autographed by the team. That was a pretty cool find.

        In case you are interested, WSU is currently auctioning a PJ Couisnard game-worn jersey.

          I am not a collector by any means, but I do have a prized possession, and it has, IMO, a cool story.

          This ball was given to me by my mother when I was ten. My mother knows Jennifer Kaczka, and Jennifer got the ball, and asked Randy to sign it to me for Christmas. Needless to say when i got that ball, along with the official jumpsuit and #5 jersey, I was speechless. Best Christmas ever.

            As dorky as this sounds- my prized possession is a knit WU Shock stuffed toy I've had my whole life. Collegiate predestination, I say!

              I've got more WSU crap than I know what to do with, coolers, toilet seats, all kinds of framed pictures...

              Congrats to whoever got this. I've seen a few sell on Ebay for upwards of $700.

                  Does it have to be of something WSU related? ...or can it just have been purchased at a WSU event for way too much money? :(

                    Now that is a pretty interesting piece! Someone should buy it, before I must : P

                      I ain't touching it. It's contaminated. Probably make your hand fall off, and your house will probably catch on fire.

                        Great find! I'm surprised this isn't already in a university collection.

                            I don't care who has it... buy it! Offer $70 bucks and it's likely yours for $80.

                              I love old WSU football stuff but it's hard to find.
