The stuff was all kinda related to the Susan G Komen foundation. I have a soft spot for women's cancer related stuff, or really any cancer related stuff. Now add in Steelers memorabilia? Well, it's a no brainer!

And while the money goes to one of the greatest causes of all, that hardly means this comes cheap!! But it's one of those once in a lifetime purchases for me, to add to my other 2,000 once in a lifetime purchases!! But seriously, I don't have a lot of signed stuff. My best prior to this is a signed Rod Woodson plaque.

Now I have a sweet and very large photo of Big Ben & Antonio Brown - and BOTH of them signed it!!!

Then I found a pair of gloves signed by Antonio Brown - in pink because it was donated to the SK foundation. Not exactly cheap, but they're now all mine!!

And right next to them was another pair, who would have thunk it?

So costly. And yes, everything comes with certificates of authenticity, from very reputable places of course. The only thing possibly better than this would have been if Le'veon Bell was in the photo and signed it. All three Killer Bees in one. :) :)

I think I'd call it an 'investment.' One you're going to hang onto. ;)

True. I don't think I would sell any of my Steelers stuff. They're all just for show, and my weird superstitions!! Now that the season is over, and the playoffs start for them this weekend, my living room has slowly been invaded by all my helmets, towels, figurines, hats, plaques and even my massive flag is outside, and the smaller on the wall above the tv.

The woman thinks I'm bonkers - but after all of these years, she is now a huge Steelers fan and puts up with my weirdness. LOL

Now I'm REALLY REALLY in trouble!!

Signed by James Harrison. Yeah, he just left the team, but he WILL retire and go into the HOF as a Steeler!!

TJ Watt - JJ Watt's brother for those that don't know. GREAT rookie year for the Steelers.

Ryan Shazier. Praying for #50 Shalieve!!

And perhaps one of the best things I will own now, my childhood hero easily - Terry Bradshaw

I need to lock you in a room with my brother. Y'all can throw Cowboys and Steelers memorabilia at each other all day and he who has stuff left last wins.:laugh:

Getting either of you to throw one of the precious little gems would be the feat of the century:laugh2:

Hollywood Henderson.#56. MVP one year, kicked off the team the next for cocaine. If he was using as much as he said, I could play that well too :badsnort:

Jim ... I think I mentioned this in another thread. My daughter went to the Steelers Ravens game last month and one of the balls that Ben threw to Antonio Brown that he touched but missed bounced in the end zone and up into her lap. So it's now at home in a trophy case. Not signed but an actual game ball.

I think she's probably as much of a fanatic as you.

That's a keeper. I would have ran with it as fast as I could right out the stadium in fear they would take it back!! LOL

She hid it in her plastic bag and the put underneath her jacket and her sweatshirt .... she said it made her look pregnant and was afraid that they would bust her before she did leave. It was in the first quarter so she had a long time to hang on to it. And it has a little bit of the chalk or paint or whatever the white stuff is that use to mark the lines on the end of the ball so she wouldn't let anybody touch it because she was afraid that they might brush it off.

Oh, and she got a video of Santonio Holmes, my grandson's favorite football player on the Steelers, talking to my grandson and telling him how sorry he was that he didn't get to come to the game with his parents. She also videotaped him signing one of the terrible towels for my grandson.

A couple more goodies!!

A Dick Lebeau signed seat cushion from the SB!! He drew up a play on it and then signed it. And so ya know, he went into the HOF in 2010, and is still coaching.

This is a used NFL pylon from when they played. Todd Haley is the Steelers OC, but back then he coached for the Arizona Cardinals. This pylon is signed both by Dick Lebeau & Todd Haley!
