What is your most prized Bronco possesion?

[SoDak Bronco]

If your house was up in flames and you could run in and grab something from your Bronco collection what would it be??

I would have to go with my personalized John Elway authographed picture.

And I quote, "Al baby, thanks for being a great fan, John Elway 7"

:thanku:

[Clockwork Orange]

My picture of my son and I with the two Lombardi Trophies.

[El Guapo]

I have two, both the same concept.

When I was a kid I remember (was it #19?) Rod Smith, rookie. I got him to sign an authentic helmet and have a picture of him doing it w/ me in the foreground.

Same exact picture w/ Terrell Davis signing a helmet for me HIS rookie year.

8')

[-Slap-]

Wow, this is so easy.

[BizzyBone7]

id probably grab the jacket i got at the stadium. it has 2-time superbowl champions on the right chest and on one sleeve it has the years they won and on the other sleeve it has the logos of the superbowls. I donno y id grab that over anything else, but i love that jacket.

[SoDak Bronco]

My picture of my son and I with the two Lombardi Trophies.

Very cool, where did you get that taken at?

[gotfredson]

I'd have to grab my collection of Bronco playoff games that I have transfered to dvd. I have a lot of other things, but they can all be purchased back.

[SoDak Bronco]

Wow, this is so easy.

Bo knows best..

[Clockwork Orange]

Very cool, where did you get that taken at?

Broncos draft day event in 1999. You could get your picture taken with the Lombardi Trophies for a $5 donation to Children's Hospital.

I got a great photo that I'll cherish forever and the Broncos drafted Al Wilson. It was a good day. :)

[spdirty]

My Super Bowl 32 and 33 tapes...The only reason why I will never completely abandon my VCR

same here............. i sometimes even will watch the commercials......kind of sad i know.

[ludo21]

Prob my Broncos Flag, i love that thing.

[Crushaholic]

I have a framed and signed Elway picture. It's not personalized to me, but it is the most valuable piece of my paltry collection...

[2KBack]

I'm going to go with my USA Today newspaper clippings from the day after superbowl 32.

Though I may grab my pro football preview from earlier that year that predicted Denver missing the playoffs as well

[Bronx33]

My wife and kids and then my trials bike.

my rod smith signed helmet

[milehimike]

my autographed elway jersey, if I only get 1 pick. If not, my whole box of Bronco stuff out the burnning window,then jump into the shower to cool off!!!!

[Taco John]

My most prized Broncos possession is a memory.

Back in college, my wife (then fiancee) started going to Broncos/Seahawks games every year when the Broncos travelled to Seattle. My wife was working at the DoubleTree and got us this great reate for the Sutes there in Seattle... $39 bucks a night!

We got settled in, and decided to head out for a bite. As we got into the elevator, another Broncos fan got in, with this really cool Broncos polo. I asked him where he got it, and he said that he bought it in Denver. A light went on in my head, and I asked, "you're not with the team are you?"

"Yeah, they're staying here tonight..."

My wife says the expression of joy on my face was priceless. I ran back up to our room so I could put my recently purchased Elway jersey in the window of our Suite, so the Broncos could see it... As I put it up and closed the door on the way out, across the atrium on a level just above ours was THE MAN, walking across to his room with a big brown leather bag across his shoulder. I looked up at him, he looked at me and he pointed! I just grinned from ear to ear, gave him a thumbs up, and then pumped my fist. I was on cloud nine.

Later that night, I sat outside the room in which they were having team meetings. I just wanted an in person glimpse of these larger than life figures. They started filtering out, and I just gazed on in amazement, not really wanting to bother them like some fanboy... but taking in the moment as much as I could.

Finally, Mike Shanahan walks out and is standing between me and the elevator that leads back to my room. I take this as an opportunity and walk up to Mike to shake his hand.

"Good luck tomorrow coach," I smiled.

"Thanks son. See you at the game?"

"Wouldn't miss it for the world."

Brice I'll start looking thursday!!

[broncocalijohn]

same here............. i sometimes even will watch the commercials......kind of sad i know.

I did too and noticed the friend of Will of Will and Grace was in a commercial where all the men hide in the middle of the clothes circle rack to watch football. He mus tbe a great actor to "pretend/act" that he is a str8 male tha tlikes football while shoping with his WIFE!
My favorite broncos item...HMM, quickly I would say my SuperBowl ticket stubs that Elway and team won. Glad I went to witness his first SB win and was in MIAMI to see his last game. Have so many items but that is nostalgia at its best.

[broncocalijohn]

My wife and kids and then my trials bike.
Ah, they have feet and legs they can get out while you save your BRONCOS stuff. Trials bike is not a broncos possesion. Try again Bronx33.

[CBF1]

Since they are all next to each other in my closet, I do not have to make a choice. My autographed Al Wilson, Randy Gradishar and Tom Jackson jersies.

I will leave ashlie's in there to burn.

[Rausch]

The 10 or so Kneel Smith cards I still have.

I toss one in the toilet, piss on it until it breaks down and finally flushes, then toss in another...

[El Guapo]

Very cool, where did you get that taken at?

Ive got a pic with them as well. Im sure they're still in the same place, but they're located in the main broncos store inside invesco.

http://www.orangemane.com/BB/attachment.php?attachmentid=11846&d=1118122488

[Rock Chalk]

Well, with the qualification of "if the house is going up in flames" nothing.

Seriously, if the house is on fire I could give a rats ass about any Bronco stuff I have. From my chessboard, to my collector TD hot wheels Corvette to my autographed Bronco jersey. It can all burn for all I give a ****, im not going back for it and Im not stopping to grab it. And anyone in here that would stop and grab something like Bronco merchandise needs their ****ing head examined.

Now, if the old ball and chain was doing spring cleaning or something Id have to say that I would refuse to let her get rid of anything. Its my stuff.

[toad]

I don't have a lot of stuff, but if I was going to grab just one thing it would be my Al Wilson autographed football. My jerseys, Plummer (authentic) and Bailey (replica), would be next.

[Billy Clyde Puckett]

My tapes of Elway vs. Ohio State and Oklahoma. The two most amazing performances by a college QB ever.

[TailgateNut]

I would'nt know what to grab, but I think it would be a toss up between my autographed Howard Griffith jersey, or my old school flag, or my ancient seat cushions with the "donkey emblems"!

[TerrElway]

My autographed John Elway SB (first one vs GB) football (one of limited number), my game worn orange #7 jersey and my signed Elway photo...in that order.

[Hotrod]

Thats pretty awesome TJ

I was going to say the same thing about my most valuable thing is simply all the memories both good and bad.

[g00fyfoot]

I'd go with my ever-expanding library of Broncos games on DVD. I'd also grab this orange plastic visor that I got at a Broncos game in 1984. I think the deal was that they were supposed to be handed out at the Monday night Packers game on 10-15-84 (it says "Orange Monday" on it), but there was a blizzard that night, of course, so they opted to give them out instead at the 11-4-84 Patriots game (and what a game it was. Dennis Smith return a fumble 63 yards for the clincher.). It's just a cheesy piece of junk, but I've somehow become attached to it as a memento from my childhood.

[freak6]

I would prolly sit in my all orange and blue room and burn with it...

Now that is fkn dedication right there.

Mine would be my John Elway autographed rookie card.

[watermock]

I dip beezlebub in Orange Clairol hair coloring by dipping him by the tail. I suppose I would save him first. Ha! I'm not really huge on memorabilia. It's cool, but no big deal.

[CHEF LUIGI]

Thats pretty awesome TJ

I was going to say the same thing about my most valuable thing is simply all the memories both good and bad.there you go!
46 years of memories, my devotion and loyalty are my most prized posessions.
My kitchen is bronco orange, I have a 24 X 36 framed photograph, not poster, of john accepting the lombardi, but memories like being at the parade downtown after the first SB win can never burn or be taken away and they are a cherished part of my life.

Lighten up Alec. Hypothetical thread. Plus, since you need everything spelled out for you, you are right next to all your broncos stuff ,steps from the back door, you dont own any pets, no wife , no kids and all your important paperwork is in a fire proof safe. Now answer the damn question and stop being a weenie!

[BIM]

My Broncos mirror.

[Atlas]

The 10 or so Kneel Smith cards I still have.

Still mad he went to Denver to get his TWO superbowl rings huh?? Well, can't say I blame you.

[broncosteven]

My 1974 (i think it is 73, 74, or 75) season scedule on a coin handed out by the bank my dad worked at. I think it is a Wells Fargo now, it wasn't back then. It was the bank that sponsored the Horse on top of the scoreboard.

It my oldest surviving Bronco memoribila from my youth.

[BarefootKicker]

When I was a kid we went to training camp every year, and I always stood at the rope line after practices were over in the hopes of getting a few autographs. I still have the ball from those times, it's this bright Orange and Blue nerf with the old logo on it. In black sharpie there are names like Rich Karlis (hence the username), Simon Fletcher, Dennis Smith, Karl Mecklenburg, Louie Wright, and a QB named Elway.

I love that ball. Brings back a lot of memories. Especially the one where Rich Karlis and Simon Fletcher played catch with it, with me for a little bit. Imagine me, a skinny seven year old white kid looking up at Mr. Fletcher as he asked to see my ball. It was a little intimidating, but freaking awesome nonetheless.

[Hogan11]

Old school dark blue D helmet and a signed Floyd Little jersey are what head up my personal collection.

[BMF Bronco]

this jersey, authentic, bought it prior to the 97 season and have worn it for every bronco game that I have watched since, which is 99.99995 of them.http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c334/bmfbuffalo/Bronc6.jpg

Kudos to you for keeping the jersey in good shape. My Lynch jersey is already starting to show some wear and tear after almost 2 years...:rofl:

dude, I treat that thing like my baby, hung up, delicate cycle when washed, etc. Ask BIM, that thing has some miles on it. Its so old, it's got the Nike Swoosh rather than the reebok symbol.

i got that helmet too. Used to run around the living room pretending I was Elway, Wilhite, etc..

LOL-I actually ran into John Elway at the Minneapolis Airport about 15 years ago. I had my North Stars Jersey on and he signed it. Nice, friendly guy.

[watermock]

I'm actually wearing a Dolphins gray T right now. It was dirt cheap and good quality with a tag. I'm about out of my half dozen bronco t-shirts that were 1 buck apiece...I suppose I will have to pop for a Cutler replica soon.

I know man, I had to buy that from Eric (cant remember his screen name)

[watermock]

http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c334/bmfbuffalo/Bronc6.jpg

I can't stop laughing. I got an old cowbell that weighs about 5 pounds and that thing, Tinkerbell could fly around with that. The PomPom only made the shot funnier. I'm not trying to start a fight, but give that man a real cowbell, I will send him one that is real. I don't know about what they let in the stadium, but a real cowbell isn't something I could hang on my cat's flea collar.

The pompom just made me laugh harder. This guy could probably throw me 5 yards but I can't help laughing.

[watermock]

http://www.bell-outlet.com/0k.htm

I got a real cool 1900's cowbell I saved and have hanging. I sprayed it in WD-40 and it's resting. I just might bring it out but I doubt they would let that monster in.

1.5 lbs for 13 bucks. That's what I'm talking about. :thumbs:

[watermock]

I would never biring that relic in, it would last thru pregame. I have no clue how old it is, but it's old. The handle is ok but where the bell rang is literally to the point you could crush it I think. I just thought that was a tinkerbell routine with a pom pom from a pretty beefy guy. I had to laugh.

[watermock]

The NSA probably has size limits of tinkerbells.

[watermock]

Time for a mock story of another close encounter with death. We had this place called the Ponderosa we attempted to raise cattle, and we had this crazy as hell bull. We couldn't control him. Somehow we got a bell on him and he hated any human he ever set his eyes on. We had a corral made of creosote railroad ties with bolts and railroad ties tying them together. The idea was they wouldn't like the creosote.

Well I'm my usual crazy kid, and I jump in. That SOB (His jewels hung about a yard) charges me and I just get over the corral and he hammers it. I swear this is a true story. He cracked that railroad tie and fell down unconcious.

How do you crack a railroad tie? Then when the cows are in heat, you let him loose and he's a crazyman. He laid the whole herd and then went thu a wire fence like it was tin foil. This Bull was like that Gargoyle in GhostBusters. So he is on the loose. After he had his way with all the Ladies, he busted out for more fun. I swear this is true. We had to fix the corrall and shoot him up with a dart by the vet to get him contained again. We was a Bhrama or Big Holstein or something. Big Yellow thing. We had electric fence up which worked, but not for this monster.

How do you ram a freakin' railroad tie and crack it? I got my leg over just in time.

[footstepsfrom#27]

I'm not that big on memorabilia...and I certainly wouldn't pay for somthing to be signed. A jersey's about the extend of what I have, and a few caps.

About 6 or 7 years ago, my daughter...she was about 9 at the time...returned from a trip with her mom to one of these neighborhood garage sales I despise. She spent part of her meager allowance on getting me two stuffed bears wearing Bronco uniforms...one was Romanowski and the other was Sharpe.

They're still sitting on my desktop...pretty cool.8')

[broncocalijohn]

No, I am noticing that kook that decided to get into the picture with STG, her daughter and BMF Bronco. What a dick. Good looking guy though. Oh wait, there I am!

[broncofan]

I'm not much of a collector of merchandise, so it would have to be my raggedy blue Broncos cap that I love and wear all the time. But chances are it would already be on my head, so if I still had the chance to grab one thing, it would be my white Champ jersey.

[orange 4 life]

EASY question.

i have LOTS of stuff i treasure.
a 1977 afc champs penant, an orange crush hat from 1978, a signed photo of elway from '84, a signed george foster hat, a signed plummer jersey, t-shirts from '86, '87, '89, an earring that was my mothers, etc., etc., etc.
the list goes on.

still, above all has to be the football signed by the entire 1996 team.

a friend and coworker of mine was friends with lionel washington and randy hilliard.
it was around christmas time, and lionel and randy came into the restaurant i managed (i left the car business for awhile before coming back to it. long story..anyway) and sat down for dinner with a couple friends of theirs.

then their drinks came.....problem. drinks werent right.
their food came.....problem. it wasnt right.
i go over and get grilled. this is wrong, that is wrong, etc. etc. etc.
as lionel is complaining and im apologizing i see randy start to smile.
the smile turns into a chuckle, and then they all start laughing and annie (the friend and coworker) comes out from around the corner with a big smile on her face.
she puts her arm around me as lionel says "sorry man, she told us to give you a hard time."

i give a little sigh of relief, and as i do, lionel grabs a box and hands it to me.
he says "i know how much of a loyal fan you are, so merry christmas."

the box of course contains a football that he took the time to personally have everyone on the team sign.
its in a case on my mantle. it always will be.

[XXXII&III]

lol, john.

If my house was on fire I'd first grab my cats, then (in no particular order) my autographed Elway jersey, my XXXII and XXXII ticketstubs, and my 2 framed overhead blimp shots of Qualcomm stadium in San Diego (SB XXXII) and Pro Player Stadium in Miami (SB XXXIII). I can see myself in both pics. Well almost. I am sort of a tiny orange speck.

[REB]

I would have to go with my Autographed Elway Photo

[kamakazi_kal]

nice......i get real drunk by half time .... well i still do that.... oi
