When my dad passed I inherited his extensive collection of Sharks memorabilia as the only other hockey fan in the family. Almost getting taken out by a rogue puck as an infant in the Cow Palace stands really bonded me to the team I suppose lol
Anyway, through the sea of S.J. Sharkies and jerseys and pucks, this is not just my most prized piece of sharks memorabilia but maybe just prized possession period.
Yep, somehow my dad got his ticket from the day Gretzky tied Gordie Howe’s record signed by not one, but both of the legends.
I’m currently an east coaster and have nobody to talk about my team with, and the current upturn of the franchise has me feeling sentimental because I know my dad would be eating it up.
So since I can’t reminisce with pops I thought it would be fun to see if any of you all have any treasured pieces of sharks history or experiences? I’d love to see or hear em!

All Star Game banner from 2019. This thing is huge as it went inside one of those giant 6 foot tall pucks the nhl uses for special events.
