Holy Grail of Husker Memorabilia

[huskerhooligansdotcom]

I was wondering what folks thought would be the ULTIMATE piece of husker memorabilia. A friend said that one of the jerseys that the team gave to a president after winning the national championship. Having that 95 CLINTON jersey would be pretty sweet.

If you ask me, the Holiest of Holy relics is the corn cob that Dave Weber found on the field during the 1995 Orange Bowl. I believe he found it right after Berringer's interception and right before we turned the game around.

What say you?

Either the whale trophy or Bo's hoodie from the big Holiday Bowl victory. Would settle for one of the 9 win trophies.

The diary of Jose Ramos.

 

[Bugeater]

An actual game jersey from one of the NC teams would be good, or helmet.

 

[beerdawg69]

Hilarious. Douchebag. You belong on HPH making fun of the coaches families.

I'm not much of a memorabilia person. I'll always cherish the memory of Cory Schlesinger rumbling into the end zone for the game winner.

And then seemingly pretending to chug the football.

Thanks, I thought it was funny too. Not sure why you called me a name after the compliment but no big deal.

More typical nonsense from the bag of crap.

I've Osborne's signature across my three game tickets from his NC wins. (And an unbelievably funny story about his antics the day he signed them.) I'm satisfied.

Even though he's now an HO pariah. Maybe I should be prouder of the Callahan signatures across Illinois issued license plates.

 

[bigboxes]

Placemats that boxes used to eat on as a kid in the 70's.

Look at how clean that placemat is...must have used a bib to keep it looking like that.

My favorite memorabilia is a book of poems celebrating Big Red's first national championship co-written by Nebraska's first State Poet, William Kloefkorn and his colleague, Leon Satterfield. I imagine that might be a pretty rare thing to have by now.

This hat

 

[Shermski77]

A back to back 1994 and 1995 champs hat, original run flat brim. Signed by TO and him only, that's it.

 

[TheHuskeRed]

Easy for me ... last game day jersey ever worn by Brook.

The diary of Jose Ramos.

WOW! Wasn't sure if that subject would ever be brought up on this site. Lol

It wasn't nonsense, I appreciated that you found my joke funny.

I have one of those commemorative footballs signed by many members of the 1971 national champions, including Kinney, Rodgers, Dutton and a young assistant coach Osborne. Along with it, I have a mint-condition program from the game. I've seen a similar ball with a $1,500 price tag at Husker Hounds. Maybe I should call the Big 10 Treasure Hunter (love that show).

The panels on the ball are red and white, with "Nebraska, 1971 National Champions" stenciled on one of the white panels. In the spring of '72, Jeff Kinney made a public appearance at, of all places, a drug store just south of 114th and Dodge. I pedaled my bike down there and he signed it. I scored the rest of the signatures about the same time when I attended one of those senior football players versus high school faculty charity games at Burke HS. Ozzie was the best player out there, as I recall. I was 15. Neat memory.

Those two items are the favorites of my quite modest memorabilia stash.

 

[30BringsTheHurt]

The ball used on Dean Steinkuhler's fumblerooski in the 1984 Orange Bowl. Despite losing, it was the greatest play call ever in a national championship game, imo.

It was a point of conversation yesterday on sharp and benning...probably why it ended up here

I now live in the southwest so I don't listen to the show. I am curious as to how much detail they went into on the show about that subject....

There was a guy a few years ago in California, who had a serious husker memorabilia auction, like pictures of bob hope in Husker gear. can't find that page.
The best I have is Johnney Rodgers autograph on a 71 golden gloves card, I got from him ringside. and the 83 time article with the Huskers on the top of the cover.

Don Bryant had a lot

Was it really? Not that I catch that show a ton, but I'm disappointed I missed that segment. Had to be quite the dance around the subject...

That's all you got? I was hoping for a "Riley's dentures" or something. That made me feel like your SO, short-changed and disappointed in the end.

Oh they did almost immediately moved on to talk about Danny Nee....Subject was basically if anyone in Husker history could write a tell all book who would you want ..Carl Pelini was another, Mrs Nee was not but Danny was

Yes great answer.. or maybe his Jersey for the K-State game he played with a collapsed lung

In December 2001, upon receiving his Ph.D. from the University of Nebraska, my father somehow tracked down some of the football players after the ceremony including newly crowned Heisman trophy winner Eric Crouch. I was 13 at the time and a huge fan still am of course so in his somewhat broken English my father worked up the courage to ask for an autograph. As he approached, he realized that he only had a pen on him and no paper. In front of the players, he rips out his diploma and has Crouch sign the back of it. That's the best Husker memorabilia our family owns.

Does he have dentures?

I forgot, my best one is also a poster , against baylor, with the sunset. I think it was the first night game at memorial stadium. one day I got bored and stared at the people in the poster...and seen me in the poster...lol needless to say it is now framed above my computer desk.

 

[grayhairedfreak]

This hat

Sometime in the 80s, a buddy of mine got an incognito shot of the Bobfather watching practice wearing a Russian-style hat with the side flaps, that resembled a raccoon or wolf. A one-of-a-kind pic that he keeps proudly.

You're also a "bag of crap." Harsh.
