LSU Items Of Memorabilia Are Available For Fans

By Jerry Barnes


Super sports fans are like nobody else. They cheer their favorite teams on through championship seasons and disappointing ones. If they have the time and the means, these people will travel across country to support their teams. Nowhere is this truer than in the South, where Friday night football is a religious experience for many. Louisiana State University alumni and those currently enrolled at the institution are no different. That is one of the reasons that LSU items of memorabilia are so highly sought after.

Tiger fans who have the means, and the room in their homes, might dream of replicating the stadium in a special screening room complete with redesigned coliseum seating taken straight from the bleachers. These types of seats can be purchased whenever they are removed because of wear or remodeling. It is usually not too difficult to restore them to their original condition. Many fans are happy to spend the time and money to do so.

While football is probably the number one sport for most fans, Louisiana basketball enthusiasts will let you know right away that number thirty-three means only one thing. This was Shaquille O'Neal's number when he played for the Tigers in the nineteen nineties. It is not unusual to find an oversize photograph of the legend, working his magic on the court, hanging somewhere in their houses.

Shaq is only one legend to come out of Louisiana State. Football fans revere the name Billy Cannon. With the help of the internet, they can even watch the halfback's amazing Halloween night touchdown in 1959. That was the same year he won the Heisman and saw his jersey retired. It is possible to purchase a signed photo or mini helmet in appreciation of his talent.

The signatures of other talented athletes is sought after as well. Most Louisiana sports enthusiasts would love to own a photo of Odell Beckman or Patrick Peterson in one of their signature moves. The most popular pictures of course, have been taken while they are on their way to a winning touchdown or celebrating in the end zone.

Signed helmets and footballs are available. Some are quite expensive, and they are not as plentiful as the pictures of sports figures. Signed jerseys are fairly rare and extremely sought after. You can purchase an LSU jersey with your favorite number on it though. Of course, Mike the Tiger items are popular. The mascot is beloved by all Louisiana State fans. Photos of Tiger stadium, famous for being one of the noisiest in the world, are readily available.

People who have purchased valuable sports memorabilia should find out the best way to preserve it and keep its integrity intact. Framed photographs are already protected as long as the glass is non-reflective. When you buy a helmet, a ball, or a jersey, a protective case does not usually come with it. You can purchase this item separately, and it is important that you do so.

If you don't know what to get a sports fan for a birthday, anniversary, or holiday present, consider a piece of Louisiana State's athletic history in the form of signed memorabilia. It is sure to be treasured and appreciated.
