Newest Vol in the Pros, Arian Foster's first Rc's are out!



I was lucky enough to pull both these, he also has several autographs in press pass, a letterman set in Bowman, and a manufactured Patch autograph in Bowman - Ive seen 2 versions of this one, one of the "T" and one of Smokey :D


My favorite piece of Memorabilia?


My favorite piece of memorabilia is also my newest addition. Thanks to Mom for finding a way to get Eric to sign this, and inscribe it :) 

There was no way he was inscribing at the O/W game, so it was really a blessing that the line was 2,000 deep when I got to it - 
"Record Breaker - Eric Berry '14 Go Vols!!!"

Thanks Mom and Eric :)

The best volunteer card I have?


I figure the first post should be the best Vol card I have so far.. 

2009 Peyton Manning Upper Deck Premier Premier Remanats 4 Autographs 9/15

If you count in person autos, I have another one of this guy, but this one is just sweet!

I pulled this card myself in a group break of a case of 07 UD Premier. Its #d 9/15 - and you may very well find me buried with this one LOL..
