“Pin-Up” of the Week: Super Bowl XXXVIII Sliding Roof Media Pin

Super Bowl XXXVIII took place on February 1, 2004 between the Patriots and Panthers.  The Patriots won 32-29 and Tom Brady was named the MVP.

This pin is pretty cool not only because it was given strictly to members of the media, but because the stadium cover actually opens and closes just like Reliant Stadium in Houston.  That is always a cool effect.  As of right now, this pin has one bid on it for $30.00, but I’m sure it will go a little higher.

“Pin-Up” of the Week: 2011 LLWS ESPN / ABC Sliding Hill Pin

This has to be one of the most interesting pins to come out of the 2011 Little League World Series.  This ESPN / ABC pin features a kid sliding down the hill on a piece of cardboard.  This is a movable pin where the kid actually goes down the hill.  This pin is rare and can sell from $50.00 to 100.00.

The ESPN pins are rare to find each year.  I wish I knew how people acquired them.  The camera guy I met wouldn’t let go of his pins.  If anyone from ESPN is reading this (I know you are) I want some pins!!!
