I was talking to a friend the other day and thought this would be cool to open up to everyone.

My favorite piece so far is a game worn glove that i caught after we blasted #7 Clemson in 2011 (Still has grass stains on it). A close second would be my tradition scarf signed by DT, Tommy, and Jules.

I am sure some of y'all have some awesome things, so lets hear them!
1985 NCSU Grad

Hard to decided - It would be between...DT/Monte Towe signed photo, PRivers signed Jersey, MWilliams signed Jersey, Tholt signed jersey or my DT sign Sports Illustrated Cover photo

My mother had class with Burleson, DT, and Towe while at State. They signed a random piece of scratch paper for her that she gave to me many years ago. It's packed away with all of my memorabilia until I get a chance to bust it all out and design our bonus room with all of my sports memorabilia.

I still have a full, unopened Coke bottle commemorating the 1983 National Championship. Unfortunately, my can of Wolfpack Red soda leaked while in storage several years ago. Even the can was ruined, so I had to get rid of it.

When I was a student in the mid-90's, I was in the basement of Reynolds Coliseum (I can't remember why, but I'm pretty sure I had a legitimate reason) and found a stack of old programs and unused tickets for games from the mid-70's. I snagged a couple and still have them at home.

Probably my plaque with the team pictures of both championship BB teams signed. And funny enough, my Les Robinson signed basketball has some sentimental attachment. I also have

Signed Cheerleading poster from the National Championship team - My deceased sister gave that to me when I was at State, so also sentimental.

Chuck Amato signed sneaks

TOB signed football

Mark Gottfried and the 1st S16 team poster all signed

I have the NC state bottles and like most leaky cans.

Now, ask my kid and he has one of the defensive back's gloves from Spring Day that he's framed in his room. Every friend that visits get's introduced to it

Have quite a few items but favorite would be a tossup between football signed by Rivers and Amato... and NCSU hat signed by the legend himself: David Thompson.

I don't have much. But I do have a piece of notebook paper with Towe, Thompson, Spence, Moeller, Stoddard autographs. When they came back from winning the 74 championship they came to Cary HS and we had a pep rally for them at the football field. They also came up to the gym and shot some hoops. I can't imagine a championship team doing that nowadays.
So the memento is pretty special...to me anyway.

A basketball signed by all of the players and Coach Sloan from the '74 season that my Grandfather gave to me when I was 13 years old.

Pictures of the 1900 and 1902 football teams that included my Great Grandfather (there were a total of 13 and 15 players on those teams).

Oil canvas of Sports Illustrated from 1974; depicts DT rising with the ball high above Bill Walton with headline End of an Era: NC State Stops UCLA. Also like my 1983 champs soda can with T. Gannon, Sidney, and Whitts signatures on it. Have a foul ball i caught at the Super Regional at the Doak in 2013 that I got Rodon and Turner to sign. Julius Hodge signed jersey. Sports illustrated from 1992 or 3 with Valvano on it when they did the long story about his cancer. 74 team picture signed by Monte, DT, and Tommy; i cut the page out of the Agromeck from that year and framed it. Recent addition is framed 8x10 of DSJ's dunk at Cameron with Dook students in the background doing the surrender cobra. I've got a whole room full of stuff and adding more every year.

Definitely what I worked the hardest and spent the most money to obtain.

I also have a helmet signed by Philip Rivers and a section of the old Reynolds floor.

I used to have a box full of the 83 championship soda cans (why I saved that many, I have no idea) but they were buried in my mom's attic and probably went with the house when she sold it.

In 1983 after winning the National Title, NCSU sent a picture of the team to all WPC members. It hung in my grandad's house for over thirty years. When he died, it was given to me. It's proudly displayed above my desk in my room.

I have a 1983 Championship painters hat that V signed at a WPC event when I was maybe 10. He made a joke about how dirty it was in the middle of his speech trying to sell the idea of the Centennial Center, now known as the PNC Arena.

I also have some dirt from the field the day we beat FSU in 1998 somewhere.

Plus a few of the 1983 championship records.
