Got a sweet Notre Dame item on ebay during the final few minutes of the Super Bowl

I made a sweet Notre Dame pickup during the final couple of minutes of the SuperBowl on ebay. It is an authentic Notre Dame “Letter” jacket. I graduated from ND in 93 but I wasn’t talented enough to earn one of these by playing and after seeing Chris Zorich and Michael Stonebreaker walking around campus my freshman year, I decided I didn’t want to pull a “Rudy” either as I valued being pain free, ha, ha. I’ve always wanted one and have watched a couple sale on ebay over the years for $500-$850.00 dollars. I’ve been a rabid ND fan my whole life and have worn a ND jacket of some type most cold days from the time I was old enough to go outside. I saw this one listed and fortunately it was ending during the Super Bowl so there wasn’t a lot of competition. I got it for $253.00 plus $20.00 shipping which is an absolute steal.

I see people all the time selling supposed ND Letter jackets on ebay but they are not real, they are letter type jackets but not the real thing. I know most of you probably don’t understand why I’m so excited over a jacket, but hey, its kinda like having a Super Bowl ring of your favorite football team or something like that.

ND game used jerseys and helmets and even National Championship rings (salesman models) are fairly easy to get if you’ve got the coin, but these jackets are tough because they usually have a sentimental value to the athlete and they are usually only allocated 1.

    image Hail to the Victors! My wife doesn't understand why I cheer for our rivals when they are not playing us. I tried to explain to her the respect the programs have for each other, but she's a Texas A&M Aggie and they have a HEAVY hatred for the Longhorns so she just doesn't understand. I spent one Saturday of my life in Ann Arbor. I don't remember the year for sure but I think it was 91 or 92, my roommates and I drove up from ND for the game without tickets and none of the Michigan fans would sell us one. We didn't get in until the 2nd quarter and we got tickets directly from the U of M when people didn't show up to pick up their "Will Calls". Then, to top it off, Desmond Howard made an incredible diving catch to beat us, and we had to endure the insults on the LONG walk to the car back after the game. Good times though,
