Former Coach Merchandise: Trash it or Keep it?

[derek4tide]

Since it is the offseason, I was cleaning out the garage storage this weekend and found a box of "junk." Most of the items were Bama coach (post-Stallings era) merchandise, such as a Fran bobblehead, a "got Shula?" t-shirt - that was a Christmas gift (never liked that one), a "Fran's the Man" t-shirt (another little brother Chirstmas gag gift), etc.... What do you do with this stuff? I mean, come-on, gotta have some fun getting rid out it, right? Any sugestions? Or maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I should keep it along side my Coach Bryant and Coach Stallings' memorabilia....... Fire away.

Being honest, for future reference, I figure the best idea would be to just not get that stuff in the first place.

As for the stuff you have now, I don't know if I would trash it, but I probably wouldn't be wearing it either.

Try eBay. You never know, a Texas A&M fan might buy some of the Fran stuff just to destroy it...

If it is autographed I would keep it. As for the t-shirts they will make very soft TP.

Derek, put it all in one package, do a Dirty Santa this Christmas and make sure Ryan gets it all back.:biggrin:

I've got a Alabama Nike hat autographed by DuBose before his first season started. He signed it "Mike Dubose". It's got to be worth something since the "B" is lower case. I'll start the bidding at $1000.

burn it

My first thought when I read the Fran Bobblehead part. As for the shirts, use them as grease rags or something.

Send the bobbleheads to frannie via Mike McKenzie

Just remember, even Edsels are collector's items now.

I just remembered all the obscene Edsel jokes I can't repeat here...

Maybe we should have a Potty-Mouth forum.

I don't buy coach stuff. I buy BAMA stuff. So this is never a problem for me. The "got shula" shirt is a joke.

I never bought coach merchandise until Coach Saban arrived. I thought it was well worth it.

I'm still wearing a coach's shirt from the Shula years. I think I'll get a new one this year though. I didn't like the coach's shirts last year.

T-shirts turned inside-out make for good detailing cloths for your car.
I say keep 'em.
