Well, I HAD a framed autograph from Coach Stallings to my grandmother and a piece of the turf from that 21-0 was played on, among various other things. My daughter talked me out of all of it for her new Bama room. She also has the DM signed numbered print in my sig.
Funny thing about the turf. I bought it at the Bama/Mizzou game last year. A soccer group was selling pieces. They had bought it from the Superdome. The guy selling the pieces say they got it at a lower price than was offered b/c the Dome didn't want to sell it to anyone in Alabama b/c they didn't want people from Alabama to have it. They put most of it on their practice field and made almost enough selling the scraps to pay for the turf.

I had a large piece of the old hedge that used to surround UGA's field.
Went down to the field and tore a huge piece up and carried it with me as a trophy out of the stadium after AU won when I was a student.
Considered it revenge for when the asshats attacked Pat Dye field back when UGA won in the early 90's.

Brett Favre football, SB program from the year they won it, and his rookie card all signed.

Not sure if it would qualify as memorabilia, but I have a pic with JFF that was taken at the Rockets/Clippers game back in January. Good stuff.

Signed napkins from an SEC Sportsman of the Year banquet I went to when I was a kid. EJ Junior, Rowdy Gains, and the best one- to me from #34 from UGA Hershel Walker. One of the nicest guys I've ever met. I was so starstruck and that thing.

I got some grass from the Rose Bowl when we beat Texas.
My dad has a piece of the old astro-turf from Legion Field.
Tons of autographs my dad has gotten over the year (about 5 or 6 Bear autographs).

My dad collected autographed memorabilia during my childhood. Probably my favorite is a painting my mother did of the photograph "Down Goes Frazier" that was signed by Muhammad Ali. I have it hanging in my living room.
Some of my dad's best stuff. He seriously has a ton of insane shite:
-An Ali glove signed "Muhammad Ali AKA Cassius Clay". That's a big deal because he hardly ever signed as Clay.
-A football signed by most of the entire 1966 Dallas Cowboys starting 22.
-A complete set of the 1969 Topps NFL cards.
-signed jerseys of Unitas, Starr, Namath, Montana, Aikman (and most of the 90's Cowboys stars)
+tons of shite I can't even remember
