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.
