A change of pace from the summer threads:
1. What is the most unique or interesting Hoya memorabilia you own?
2. What is the most unique or interesting Hoya memorabilia you'd like to have, if available?

I have the autographs of Dikembe Mutombo, Alonzo Mourning, and Roy Hibbert on the same sheet of paper. (Unfortunately, it is on common notebook paper). A friend of mine ran into Mutombo and Mourning at the St. Louis airport and got both their autographs for me. I got Hibbert's at the Hoop Club Banquet his senior year. I would have gotten Patrick Ewing's at the 100th Anniversary Celebration for Hoya basketball but forgot to bring the sheet!

My diploma? I have t-shirts for the two NCAA titles won by the Hoyas: 1984 NCAA bball champs and 2011 NCAA women's XC champs. 2. What is the most unique or interesting Hoya memorabilia you'd like to have, if available? A picture with all the sub-4-minute GU milers.

I want the basketball Pops kept in his office.
I am not a huge memorabilia person, so I don't own a lot of Hoya basketball related swag, but if I got to choose from anything I could own, that would be it.

I have a program from the 85-86 season with a ticket stub Feb 26, 1986 v. BC in my office.
I love the deflated basketball idea.

I have a few:
1. One of Allen Iverson's All America plaques. A good friend used to work in McD and after the coaching change in 2004, they cleaned out the basketball offices and he gave me a few pieces that were going to be trashed otherwise.
2. A ticket stub from the GU-Croatia game in McD in 1995. The stub itself isn't remarkable. It's the fact that I found a stack of them on Prospect Street by Village A in 2004.
3. A Brendan Gaughan autograph and pic from when he brought his Georgetown truck to a football game a few years ago.

I have a throwback Allen Iverson G'Town Jersey (Navy Blue) and tons of ticket stubs from various years. One of the coaches at St. Anthony's H.S here in Jersey City also gave me the Hoya program guide for Jeff and Roy's frosh years. It's pretty cool , has alot of history inside it. I cherish that book.
Not sure this falls under the same catagory , but I also have Ewing Jr , D. Summers , Roy Hibbert and Greg Monroe Autographed rookie cards.

1.Autographed Georgetown Basketball Camp shirt of the 94,95? Team. With most of that Hoyas team including AI, victor page, Othella, Jerome Williams Jahidi White, etc. I got at the banquet my parents took me too when I was younger.
Tie for 1. Autographed program from Big John
Whoever said a picture of a future Natl. Championship team is spot on for something I'd love to own!

2. What is the most unique or interesting Hoya memorabilia you'd like to have, if available? I'd kinda like to hang the 2000 NIT banner over my toilet, to be honest.

long time lurker here... love the board, and figured I'd add to this thread..
I was able to get my hands on the game ball from Georgetown's win over Syracuse in the dome on February 9, 2011... While I'm fully confident that the Hoyas can win up there again this season, it's kind of cool to have the ball from JTIII's only win in the dome.... and perhaps (but hopefully not!) Georgetown's last win there before the traitors slink away from the Big East and leave for the acc.. Now, I just need to get some Hoya signatures on it...

1. I used to have Kevin Millen's black Nike socks, but I wore them out. 2. My seat from the 2007 NCAA regional game. I'd watch every game from that chair.

I have a bunch of Georgetown tobacco silks from the early 1900s. They are framed and hanging on the wall. Pretty nice.
