First Jerseys Ever Worn
I just purchased the first jersey Von Miller ever wore in a regular season game. (Broncos Orange from 9-12 game vs. Raiders) Does anyone else own any first jerseys? If so of who? How much of a premium do you think they command if the player becomes a star? I am usually hesistant to invest in rookies because they are busts so often but I feel good about Von and he has looked great so far. I will enjoy tracking his career and one day I hope to meet him and show him the jersey and see his reaction. I am so excited about this jersey because my other jerseys are from random regular season or playoff games where the team did not win a title that year and are thus not really unique. This is the first possibly historic jersey I have ever had and noone but me will have Von's first jersey.

Re: First Jerseys Ever Worn
I might have the first jersey Mike Fontenot ever wore in the majors, in 2005 with the Cubs. He made his debut in a doubleheader, and usually in DHs the teams switch jerseys between games, but I have no way of knowing whether they wore the regular whites or the alternate blues in the first game.
It's Set 1, and he only played in a few games that year. I know that there are some fanatical followers who keep track of which uniforms teams wore in which games, but without someone like that appearing for the 2005 Cubs, or a photo, I'll never know if it was his first game or his second game.

I had Ryan Hanigans first home jersey he ever wore as a Red. It was cool to have it. I figured a bigger fan would enjoy it so I sold it.

I have a first ever worn Joe Webb Vikings jersey. I think he has the skills to eventually be a productive qb in the Nfl.
Congrats on the pickup legaleagle92481, Miller had a forced fumble and turnover on the first play of his first ever Nfl game as well. Ads to the history. He is looking to be the real deal.

I also got him to sign it for me with a nice inscription "first game Giants", it was pretty cool to see his expression
