I have a few interesting jerseys -

Brendan "Big Show" Tedstone gameworn Flint Generals jersey Big Show is something of a minor league legend. A self-proclaimed goon for hire, he's known for his size as much as anything else. He was tipping the scales around 350 or 400 when he wore this jersey. He's a heck of a nice guy, one of the best I've met in hockey. He's also dropped quite a bit of weight since those days.

Just Van Parys El Paso "Cow Patties" jersey. The El Paso Buzzards, of the CHL, decided to change their name to the Cow Patties for a few games. I called down there to see if it was true, and then to ask if I could buy a replica jersey. Turns out they were only auctioning off the game-worn jerseys. I put in a bid without ever seeing a jersey, and three days later, there was a squishy, stinky UPS package on my doorstep. It was nice of them to go ahead and not wash it before shipping it thousands of miles

The last one I'll mention isn't really weird, just mildly amusing. It's a Brad Essex gameworn Mallards jersey. Evidently, they needed one of the "S"s off of the back of the jersey for another nameplate. So now it says E SEX on the back

The rest of my collection is here, if anyone wants to look.
