I've always wanted to see what stuff other State fans have. What kind of NC State stuff do you have in your collection?

I just ordered the last large one of these off the GoPack online store.


It'll go great with my 1983 NC State National Champions beer mug that I found a few years ago in the back of one of my parents cabinets.

I have a little NC State nerf ball autographed by Chuck. Probably close to half of my t-shirts are State shirts b/c my family members know that any kind of State paraphernalia is something I won't be disappointed in. The trash can in my room at my apartment is a State one. I have a snow globe of State's campus that plays the Red & White song when wound up. I have a Block S sign that lights up, a red rug with the old block S, a paper weight with a drawing of Holladay Hall, and a traffic light sort of thing that lights up saying "LETS. GO. STATE (but it's the in the form of the Block S logo)." I also have this blanket with the old Tuffy.



There's too much more to list.

I, too, am interested to see what sorts of things you other fans have. I plan to have a State room (man cave) when I get a house. I'll take/find some pics of some of my stuff and get back to you

7" of WRAL's 1983 Wolfpack song

it's a horrible, horrible song

but it's a cool record to have

9/13/2010 1:09:55 AM

like the throwback adidas shirt

9/13/2010 1:26:50 AM

^agree

9/13/2010 1:27:57 AM

I have an LP called Where Winds of Dixie Softly Blow: Sounds of North Carolina State University.

Has all kinds of weird stuff on it, like a recording of the nuclear reactor.

9/13/2010 1:35:29 AM

I have the MP3 of "Life on Campus at NC State"

9/13/2010 1:37:42 AM

i have two junior wolfpack club shirts, a herb sendek basketball camp shirt and ball signed by people, a signed leroy harris glove that he threw to me after some game, and some other shit.

9/13/2010 1:38:09 AM

I want to find some State gear with old logos on it (diamond S, old S on the FB helmets, old Tuffy, 2 sideways profile views of the wolf, etc.).

I've got a bunch of football stuff from the Amato years though (Mario autograph, football with entire '02 team, Rivers autograph) and some random assorted stuff I've picked up through the years for dorm room walls and things like that.

9/13/2010 7:45:50 AM

I have an LP of the radio recordings in 1983. I think it also has the fight song, etc.

i must have deleted the pic in my photo gallery but i have a sweet 1983 championship belt buckle.

9/13/2010 8:21:08 AM

"Swag" is stuff you got for free, aka "Stuff We All Get"

9/13/2010 8:37:10 AM

I had the 7" of the '83 song too, but haven't seen it in a decade or two, hopefully it's still at my parents' house somewhere. Was it called "The Cardiac Pack"? Around the same time as the Bear's "Super Bowl Shuffle". Why aren't there songs for teams anymore?

I also had a '83 championship clock that got stolen off the wall at a party. I've still got a banner from '83. I drew all over it in pencil when i was a kid though. Also have the cola in wolfpack bottles and cans from '83.

9/13/2010 9:38:37 AM

I have a pretty sweet 1988 Peach Bowl game shirt that I found at a Salvation Army. I wore the hell out of that thing in college. It got old and had some holes so I cut the sleeves off of it and now it is a working in the yard shirt.

I also bought this old school NC State wolf head logo that was hand stitched probably back in the 70s based on the discoloration and the frame it's in. I'd post some pics if I had any, but I got it off ebay for about $5 back in early 2000s. I love that picture.

9/13/2010 10:38:22 AM

9/13/2010 10:48:12 AM

I have a couple diff sets of basketball cards featuring talent like Lakista McCuller and Ishua Benjamin, plus posters from basketball seasons dating back to '85 and that poster from the "last" game at Reynolds. Also wolfpack soda from 83.

9/13/2010 11:06:33 AM

i have the julius hodge bobble head...also a signed bball from the melvin/hodge team during melvin's sr. year

9/13/2010 11:19:07 AM

-poster from the first game at the ESA/RBC Center
-bball posters from 1993-2000, all procured from Bojangles
-a football poster from 1994 featuring Eddie Goines
-balls signed by the 1996-97 and 97-98 bball teams (luminaries such as Ron Kelly, Cornelius Williams, Kenny Inge, and Damon Thorton).

a sidney lowe autographed bball (please hold your lols)

a few nice framed prints

autographed 8X10 from rivers (ncsu, not sd)

83 coke bottle

9/13/2010 1:14:24 PM

Well I know that swag is often free stuff, but I like to use this version of the definition.

May include t-shirts, stickers, promo CDs, posters, etc. Often free, but not necessarily; a t-shirt or record purchased at a concert might still be considered swag, especially if it is a design or release that is not readily available in the mass market.

...

The chief difference between swag and regular merchandise is that its purpose is not to make a profit, but to promote the band/label, and reward its supporters by giving them something cool and unique.


I have a diamond S Gator Bowl sweat shirt. I don't know what year it's from though. I also somehow got some boxers with a sewn in diamond S at the bottom of the right leg around the Summer of 2003, which looking back now was a rare find since the school had stopped using the diamond S after 1999. I have a pair of nutcracker ornaments with block S logos painted on them. Then there's the Tuffy ornament which goes just under the Wayne Gretzky ornament on the tree.

I'd like to one day have an NC State room/man cave with a red pool table and this pool table lamp hanging over it, and a set of NC State pool sticks.

9/13/2010 4:27:26 PM

Man oh maaaan, can you relate?

I have an Adidas hat signed by the current football coaching staff and hopefully my ACC hat from last year is coming back with basketball signatures. I have a Hodge bobblehead somewhere and then we've got some 2001 tangerine bowl swag of my husbands lying around as well as his bowl game jersey on the wall. I have a few statues of Mr Wuf hanging a ram or the state fish eating the unc fish etc.

Had to have been 1992. We had a great team, but we played Florida in the Gator Bowl on a crazy foggy night in Jacksonville. You literally could not see the field on TV. Lost by around 30.

My uncle was seen wearing a 1994 Hall of Fame Bowl t-shirt as recently as last year. We lost by even more in that game.

9/13/2010 8:59:12 PM

Anyone have a TOB or Chuck cardboard stand-up? I'll buy it from you.

9/13/2010 9:11:43 PM

Not NC State, but i've got a classic ESPN2 poster that they put up when they do games

"ESPN2. slightly hotter."

9/13/2010 9:38:08 PM

Lots of cool stuff on the walls at Amedeo's, even a Jimmy V shrine above the urinal.

9/13/2010 9:40:32 PM

I own a sweat-stained visor featuring the "diamond" NSC logo discarded by Coach Mike O'Cain after a particularly frustrating practice during the 1995 season.

9/14/2010 1:25:48 AM

I bought some shoes from Chris Washburn

9/14/2010 1:36:27 AM

mike o'cain was autographing pictures at crabtree when i was a kid, so i have one of those. also, todd fuller autographed jersey, WHAT WHAT?

9/14/2010 3:07:08 AM

just picked these both up off Craigslist for $450 for the pair. Both game worn, autographed, framed and authenticated

Signed Thomson jersey, signed Thompson national championship picture (framed), 1983 coke bottle

Also have a ball autographed by 2002 team, a P Riv. ball, a P Riv. signed framed magazine cover.

Tons of little stuff I've collected over the years, street signs, tons of hats, pendants, unsigned helmets, banners, stuffed Tuffy's, etc.

I love my Wendy's Junior Wolfpack club certificate (from like 93') and my Game hat with the Kelley green underside that I've had since 3rd grade

I was gonna buy some from him too, right after I got off work from Domino's, but Lorenzo Charles beat me up.

9/14/2010 1:02:55 PM

thanks to the heads up from this thread, I too now own the adidas throwback shirt. I very rarely find sports teams / college apparel that I actually like the design of and want to wear. Thanks!

9/14/2010 1:28:36 PM

Schwag?

9/14/2010 1:30:22 PM

9/14/2010 1:36:30 PM

I still have PRiv's belt/crotch/whatever towel with the block S on it somewhere in my closet.

9/14/2010 2:25:48 PM

^^where was this spotted?

9/14/2010 3:12:06 PM

i didn't know the ratio was 6 to 4

9/14/2010 4:41:05 PM

i have one of the original lockers out of the RBC center, when it was still the ESA

also...
Sports Illustrated of the 74 and 83 championships
83 coke bottle
the red "Howl Towel" from the Indiana home opener in 2001
others i can't think of

9/15/2010 11:22:12 AM

Anyone know of a good store in Wilmington to buy some State gear?

That towel is in my roadside repair kit in the trunk of my car, ha.

9/15/2010 4:33:09 PM

Oh I do have that somewhere. I think it's at my parents house.

9/15/2010 4:39:18 PM

i'm planning on a NCSU themed room at some point... been collecting for a while, here's a couple of things:






I want to get the last two SI's autographed at some point.

9/17/2010 3:10:14 PM

last night at the game I saw a guy with a shirt that said on the back

It's as easy as 1, 2, 3 with the scores from the last three UNC games....anyone know where I could find that?

9/17/2010 4:50:15 PM

I own a 1983 championship poster (not an old poster) but it's signed by Sidney Lowe and about half of the '83 team

9/17/2010 8:11:32 PM

Oh yeah, here's an odd one.

I have a CBS Sports hat like this one, just a navy hat with this logo in gold:


My dad got it from a guy in the press box at the Clemson-NC State game in 1988(?).

Only now, it's signed by Billy Martin.

Yep, he was wearing it when he ran into Billy Martin in Chicago. He just had him sign the hat.
