I am looking for an Alabama football helmet stolen off the sidelines at the 1969 LSU/Bama game at LSU. It was 100yr commerative anniversay helmet. Belonged to a friend of mine who was carted off after being hurt by Godfrey Zaunbrecker At least would like to see it and know where it is.

sorry, but the family has been "using it" all this time, and not about to break a family tradition.

Of all the message boards this dude comes to TD to ask this, and my Dad stole the helmet while he was in college.

Send me your address and bank # and I'll happily send it back. Your bank # is just to pay the shipping.

Why is it stolen and not just lost?

Also, don't let the people fool you. Everybody on TD knows about this helmet. It's a running "inside" joke. I think Chicken was wearing it when he came up with the idea for TD. But last I heard, THATLSUBOY stole it and is keeping it in his dorm. It inspires his raps. So you can't have it back

... And you know for a fact it was "stolen"?
I mean, I know 1969 was the stone age, when even I was young, but they DID have equipment managers back then.

I think it's buried with Jimmy Hoffa.
