Any other Florida Gator collectors?

Re: Any other Florida Gator collectors?

I'm pretty sure all they sell in Gainesville is racoon hats and eye patches.

Said the guy whose campus boasts a big top. What are the prereqs to major in clowning?

Re: Any other Florida Gator collectors?

I really would like to add an 08 Gators jersey or helmet, but don't even have an idea where to start looking. I will be in Gainesville this weekend, do they sell them at the team store?

I haven't ever seen any of the 08 jerseys for sale at the store. I did see quite a few of the players leave the stadium with family after the championship celebration with their jerseys slung over their shoulders - doesn't bode well, but I'll keep an eye out and let you know if I come across anything.

I am not so much, but my 7-year-old stepson is a fan (not sure where he got it being in Ohio) but I got him a game-worn helmet with the visor, some hit marks and BCS sticker on the back. He loves it!!!

Very cool. Where'd you find that helmet/do you have any pictures?

I think I may have gotten off of ebay a while back, not too sure. I will get some pics and post Monday!

Hello and welcome! Check out the web site www.theclassicstuff.com - click on game used college NCAA helmets. Larry Pet... forgive me the last name I quite cannot recall the exact spelling. He is a member here - class act! I purchased a 2004 game used helmet and love it. He may have one in inventory or can get you one.

Larry P. is a great guy and comes across Gator helmets every now and then.

By the way, Tom, I wanted to give a "Go Pack" shoutout. My sister is a junior NC State right now.

I am not a Gator fan but posted an awesome Gator collection in the Man Cave thread a while back. Worth finding it.

Found the above mentioned link for you Gators fans at the top of page 9 of this thread:

Wow, that's really sharp looking. Do you know when it was worn?

That's one hell of a man cave for sure. Only thing better would be watching the game in the Swamp.

I was in Gainesville last weekend, and they have the '08 helmets for sale (with the BCS decal) for $400 a pop.

Re: Any other Florida Gator collectors?

Was there any way to tell which player wore each helmet?

Re: Any other Florida Gator collectors?

Hello GoGator
I would venture to guess Cory Bailey as he had this number for four years, (01-04) and seems to have little wear more consistent with special teams play, but in this world, who knows... =) That is what I tell the kid anyway... lol
