What 2003 paraphenalia do you still have?

I bought a poncho before the games on Saturday.
Maybe that's why I bought the Final Four windbreaker. I'm not surprised I dont remember the rain because I was bombed by the time I made it to the Marquette game. We were all chanting for Marquette on the walk up to the dome. We got there at halftime and the game was over. Kansas was winning by two dozen or so.
 
Wow! 3 out of 15. Who has 1 and 2? Nice piece of memorabilia.
I have no clue. Imagine 3 would be the 3rd most desirable number after 1 and 15 given '03 year. I actually have another 'Melo Syracuse and a rookie year Nuggets one from Steiner as well. Could probably let go of 1 of them if anyone were interested given they just sit in a closet on hangers these days.
 
I used to have that “2003 National Champions” mini poster that they gave away at the post-title celebration at the dome. Haven’t seen that in forever!
Does your wife make things disappear?

I don’t know where I got it. I didn’t go to that event, so I must have got it at the dome the following season?

I have a tee shirt that has never been worn. Got it at a discount store in Watertown NY. A size or 2 too small but I've lost over 40 lbs since then so it actually might fit right now. Also I know I have a magazine somewhere that was never read. I've been told it has the story in it how JB had a sit down with Melo and GMac to clear the air.
 
I wear the long sleeve shirt all the time. It was well worth the $30 I paid for it at Manny’s.

Everything I bought I bought 2 of. One to use and one to keep. Most of it is packed away. I don't have a mancave to display it in right now.
 
I believe I have three or four shirts, two hats, a few books and magazines, an 18x24 framed blow up edition of the Post Standard and a 8x10 framed photo of Melo and JAB which the coach autographed.

All of it. Too much to list. That said being a frosh that year there was tons. I have copies of the DO, PS, hats, magazines, etc and so much more from start of year to end. A lot was even from family not stuff I bought.

These were the shirts they wore on the court after the game. I have 2 - one worn, one never (and never will be) worn.
I ended up finding one of these on eBay for $20 including shipping (in my size!), it arrived today... it's in excellent almost brand new shape! I'm really pleased with it. Now I just need to get to your level & find another one for the collection, haha. It takes a little bit of the sting out of throwing out my original one back in 2004-ish because it was too big...

Official National Championship ring (the one the players got) with my name engraved on the back. Unfortunately, it has that stupid logo that SU was using back then. When non-SU people see it, they ask whether it stands for St John's or St Joe's.

I’m gonna respectfully disagree. The logo in question is a long used logo back to McNabb era. Lots of Nike gear had that. The confusing ugly angled one didn’t come until GROSS got here. I loved the logo above.
 
Yes, if you click on my image, & expand it, you can see his signature about the Syracuse logo.
 
I was able to get tee-shirts, hats, commemorative SI issue, Post Standards for all games played, mugs, shot glasses, etc. I also purchased a set of 2003 National Champion pilsner glasses from Syracuse China a few
days after (see below). My mother-in-law also got me an autographed poster of JB back in 2003 from the championship.
