A great story of a jersey going home

[perlman9]

Just to let people know who may stumble across this site, I received an email from a wife of a former NFL player (don't want to say name because it will be a gift). She was Googling his name to try and find a photo of him in his playing days in the NFL. In the google search, a photo of a jersey I posted here came up. She followed the link, saw the post, contacted me and is buying the jersey for her husband as a Christmas gift as he never had anything from his playing days. He didn't play long in the NFL and for those that know, I am a huge MSU Spartan alum collector and while this was the only jersey I had of this player, I am excited that the player is getting it back.

Just thought it was a neat story of how this site and our collections are being seen by players, spouses and family members.
