Would items out of the Astrodome be of any value outside of Htown?

They're having a big sale this weekend and I'm already planning to go and get a few things for my bar. But I was wondering if anything would be of value to anyone else? They're selling pairs of seats for $200, 12"x12" patches of turf for $20 and auctioning off the bigger items.

Thanks!

I dont think I will be able to head out to Houston this weekend, but I have a cousin who lives that way and this would be awesome if she could get me some of the red seats possibly. It would be great for our gameroom/playroom. I always wanted some stadium seats.

I wouldn't mind getting my hands on a set of the old rainbow seats.

I wish they'd sell some of this online. I'd love to have some turf. Fond memories from my many days of my childhood spent in those seats, too.

I'd be willing to pick up some extra stuff but I have no idea how I'd get this stuff to yall. And not sure who I can trust (no offense).

My bar has a lot of purple and going to get some yellow seats to compliment the prevailing LSU theme.

I'll paypal you $20 for a piece of turf, $5 for the US Postal flat rate shipping, and another $20 for you to go and buy a case of beer to say thank you.

smart man....

Just the authenticity of the seats with the Texas logo on the side is unique...Definitely something cool to have. I think alot of people will try to do something similar and get different colors to match different areas.


What would be cool is to buy a pair of each and have them set up stadium style and have the rainbow setup

I grew up in the stadium watching every Central Division title right in Lefties Pub. Ah, the memories, and oh how everything went to shite when we moved.

Postseason shortcomings aside, the late 90s Astros were so much fun to watch.

The 98 team will always be my favorite, even over the World Series team.

Damn now I'm getting all nolstagic
