Has anyone ever had a piece of Bills paraphernalia that someone tossed?

[WG]

I had two bottles of champagne that I bought that were bottled by Batavia Wine Sellers that had a special "AFCE Champs" label on it from 1991.

Well, long after I had moved out of home, my mom decided that "the wine shouldn't 'go to waste' ". So they drank one w/o my knowing it.

Fortunately I caught on as I saw the open bottle on a visit home, and ran screaming into the basement where the other was. Figured I'd emerge w/ a shotgun if that one had been drunk as well.

I saved it and it proudly sits today on the top shelf of my newly made baker's rack. Much to my wife's dismay! Could have had two of them however...

I also made the mistake of telling her that I was in 4 FFLs this season. That wasn't a good idea!

Actually, as many of you know, she's a sweety. She does have a limited number of issues, as w/ most wives presumably, once football season arrives.

Oh well, what can ya do...

I don't go picking through garbage looking for things. If it's in the trahs, I don't want it anyway.

Consider yourself fortunate, I would have used it as a rag in my truck.

You know, greasy oil spills and other stuff...

Besides, I said "Bills paraphernalia", not trash!

I think wys means has anyone thrown out your goodies, not did you find goodies in the trash.

What time does it tell?

Well I don't know what the heck happened to my Thurman Thomas jersey. Perhaps my parents tossed it. I'll interrogate them later.

Oh, I guess I was confused. No, I've never had anyone throw anything Bills stuff out. My brother (the other twin) took about 50 of my matchbooks and used them to light his cigarettes. Boy was I pissed! I collect matchbooks from all the places I've been and I could've killed him for taking some of the ones I saved.

Even broken clocks are right twice a day

My wife bleached my Gil Perrault Original Authentic Sabres Jersey. It was a home jersey so now the numbers are purple. I was/am not a happy camper.

At least she didn't turn it pink!

My friend had an old bruce smith poster that had gotton badly wrinkled and I saw it in his trash. It is hard to get Bills stuff here in NH so I had to grab it. Flattned it out and now it is good as new!

However I must admit that I gave away much of my bills things when i was younger before i moved from buffalo. Man, if I had realized the importance those things would have to me now were I still to have them.

In addition to some really cool posters of Andre, Jim, Bruce, Thurman, etc, I had lots of cards, a few signed pictures, and I had collected every single fullpage picture that the D&C put out each week of the postseason in the superbowl years. If I had tehm now I would laminate them and line my walls... regrets regrets...
