Pizza Hut Helmet Collection

Recommended Posts

Not sure if this is the right forum.  But in 1976 my parents help me build the full NFL collection of mini helmets from Pizza Hut or Dairy Queen, can’t remember which.  Still have them stored.  Has the NFL done a similar collection in the last decade?  Just curious

I've never seen these before, though I'm very familiar with the gumball helmets you used to get from novelty vending machines. They're a slightly different style from the ones you collected.

It looks like they're still made in a modernized form. Here's an example built around college conferences.

Back when the entire AFC East, all 5 teams, wore white helmets.  Too many if you ask me.  Glad the Jets went Green, and then the Bills red.

DQ brought these back briefly in the early ‘90s. I became interested in football in 1993, and sometime before that we got two of them at our local DQ. My dad picked Bengals (closest to us geographically) and I picked Eagles (I liked the name). I would estimate that we got these in either 1991 or 1992.

I totally forgot that part of the Bucs problem in their very first season (other than that they sucked) was that they were stuck playing in the AFC west.
