What should I do with my signed Lance Armstrong hat?

Mar 6, 2013 4:39 PM

A couple years ago I got a hat that LA actually wore and signed after a photo shoot. What do I do with it now? What would you do with it? Should I hang on to it in the hopes that some day there's a market for "disgraced athlete memorabilia"?

I'm not sure if his stuff was really worth all that much in the first place compared to other famous athletes. I'd say keep it, it'll be a good conversation piece in the future, and I'm sure with all the controversy it might still have some value left.

Save it to wear to Cooperstown to watch Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens get inducted into the Baseball HOF.

I'll put it next to my Pete Rose hat. Charlie Hustle gets no respect.

Take it to Pawn Stars. Even if it's worthless, you'll be on TV. Which is totally still the American Dream.

There is still a market, but not sure it was ever really worth a lot. I got a signed photo (one that I took the day before) from Floyd Landis. He even realized that it was taken during the time trial and spent a couple minutes talking with me. (of course this was 8 years ago). I'd put the hat right next to the signed photo of Landis. Cycling rules (no matter how corrupt).

Eat it while someone records and then post the video on Youtube.

Wear it when you mow the lawn, work on your car, etc.

Some day it'll be worth something. There will always be someone that feels he got a raw deal, was still great, etc., and you can make a profit off them.

Of course, this could take 20 years or more.

Change your name to Lance Armstrong and wear it proudly.

There are some interesting answers here. I don't think I can eat a hat though.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
