Post a picture and back story for your most Sacred of Big Orange Keepsakes.
I posted this in the "EB in an ATL Falcons Jersey" Thread, but thought it would be interesting to see what everybody else has. My most-prized Vol memento is a Black Vol Jersey, signed by Eric Berry.
I had gotten tickets to the 2009 game against Carolina at home(The Kiffin Year). All week, there had been rumors that the team would wear the black jersey's, but nothing was confirmed. I ended up buying a Black Vol Jersey the week before the game, just in case the rumors were true. Unfortunately, when I got to my seats (Which were pretty good) the team was warming up in the all-orange uniforms, which are still cool, but weren't what a lot of people were hoping for. But Wait! In what I thought was a brilliant move, after going back to the locker room, the team re-emerged through the T wearing the Black Jerseys. The crowd and the players were jacked and the Vol's put a good whoopin on Spurrier and the boys.
After the game I was talking with my friend who worked with the training staff for the football team. He said he might be able to get my jersey signed, because he was sometimes around the team. I wasn't expecting much, but my friend comes back a week later, and he had gotten EB to sign the jersey. I also have some post-its (its all my dad had on him) from after the Arky game in '97 with Peyton, Archie(Archie was outside the locker room to greet Peyton), Phil Fulmer, Joey Kent, Jay Graham, Jeff Hall, Jayson Layman, and Chad Clifton's autographs. But my signed, black, Eric Berry Jersey will always be my favorite.
Lets see what yall got!
