Okay, post up all the links to any great shirts, hats, other memorabilia you find online. Looking to discover some hidden gems, not the typical Fanatics garbage that shows up everywhere, or the locker room items we’ve all seen.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — More than 90 counterfeit Kansas City Chiefs, Royals and Kansas Jayhawks championship rings were seized this week by federal agents in Cincinnati.
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency says the rings — if they had been sold as genuine — were valued at more than $2.7 million.
A CBP spokesperson said agents in Cincinnati intercepted a package on March 21 that had been shipped from Hong Kong and was bound for a residence in Atchison, Kansas.
An X-ray of the contents of the package “yielded inconclusive results,” leading agents to perform a physical inspection. When they opened the package, they discovered 40 2019 Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl rings, 20 1969 Chiefs Super Bowl Rings, 15 1985 Kansas City Royals World Series rings and 15 2022 Kansas Jayhawks NCAA Championship rings.

I got mine today after delays and more delays. Quality is see thru. I can read this thread thru 1 side and made in Haiti. Says 100% thick cotton. :-) Might be cotton but thick? Will make a nice summer T-shirt. Goldan is the maker of the T-shirt originally. https://www.gildan.com/us/en/ [Reply]

$11.000 Even (especially) gifts are taxed. When the Chiefs got their rings in 2020, for example, Action Network's Darren Rovell noted the Chiefs paid $11,000 per ring, which came out of their paychecks. [Reply]
Crazy to me the players pay for it..............Reminds me of the services paying the NFL to have them have them honor Veterans/Service members. [Reply]
