None of my friends can come up with a good idea on this so let me know what ya'll think.
I like to collect IP autos of entire basketball teams provided they will stop and sign. Now I normally do this on a basketball but if any of you have ever collected autographed basketballs, they can take up quite a lot of room after a while. Especially if you do football and baseball stuff too. I also don't really do the photo crap either. My idea with that is after a while you get so many signed that you can't possibly display even a fraction of them so I don't bother with them. I want a team signed item. I also don't want to do a generic jersey or anything like that. I also don't want to do what I have seen others do, and go to Home Depot or Lowe's and buy a piece of wood that is similar looking to a basketball court, and get it signed. To me...where the hell are you even going to display that? It seems a bit tacky.
So my question is...besides a basketball(which is normally my preferred option), and not using any of the other above mentioned items, is there anything else anyone has an idea for using? I was thinking team programs or yearbooks would be a great idea but the last time I even went to a Rocket's game, they said they no longer even sell programs. I was stunned since football and baseball teams both do so quite regularly. But...I can't display a slew of programs either. But for some reason I'd feel more satisfied getting those signed rather than photos. I was also thinking of team posters but I think of the photo problem every time I think of posters. And those would take up way more display room than a basketball.
I know I am being pretty damn picky here but I am really just wondering what everyone does? I am always open to new ideas but it seems to me I covered them all. Anyone got any other ideas?
