Displaying stadium seats

Arsenal83 · February 10, 2013 8:37AM

I just picked up a couple of awesome orange Angels Stadium seats today and wanted to get some ideas on how to display them. I'm sure a few of you have some up in your man caves. Let's see some pictures so I can figure out what to do with mine.

Do you have a bar in your man cave?

Here are a couple of connected seats from Baltimore's old Memorial Stadium that I have displayed in my hobby room....On each of the seats I have a couple of signed, game used bases:

I like that Hot Dog Vendor Bin!

That Esskay vending bin is one of my favorite items in my collection! I obtained it like three years off Craigslist and when I went to pick it up, I found out that the seller was deceased Orioles Hall of Fame announcer Chuck Thompson's grandson, who was selling off some items from his grandfather's estate (which made it that much cooler!). To this day, I've never seen another one available (and I found the perfect spot for it too!...lol).

I built a stadium in my back yard to install and display mine in...

Doug - No bar (yet). Just finished building my game used bat display (I might need to build one more) and got a few pictures left to hang - Angels World Series panoramic, Nolan Ryan bloody face canvas, Reggie Jackson signed 3 HR 16x 20, and a Vince Papale signed Invincible movie poster.

IMF - Awesome pieces!!

Scott - Did you say stadium?? I gotta see this.

Keep the ideas coming.

Wow, that's a lot of GU bats. Any signed? Which is your favorite?

Arsenal83 · February 11, 2013 12:33AM

Doug - I actually have another 20 bats that I didn't have room for, that's why I'm considering building another rack. On that display in the picture are 17 Brian Downing bats ranging from a nice 1976 Bicentennial all the way to a 1992 bat from his last season. A couple of those are signed. Other than those my favorite is probably a 91 Griffey Jr that was the first big name bat I bought back when I was in high school.

Hiya Brian

I can - fer sure - tell you how NOT to display your seats!

Everything in my hobby world is "under construction" right now - I have a new room earmarked as soon as I get shelves in and stuff - so as I changed my small office in the house - stuff wound up being jammed into corners.

Wish I could be of help - but I can use help also.
