Evil Doctor Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Now I'm curious about what is the oldest Grey Cup ring (which might in fact be 1928) or the oldest Stanley Cup ring?1893 Stanley Cup http://www.greatesthockeylegends.com/2010/04/1893-stanley-cup-ring.html Does this mean that championship rings started in Canada and then migrated to the U.S.? Are there even older rings for any sport out there? And only $60,000 for that ring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a look.I met a recruiter from another college who played for the Lions and Baltimore Colts who wears his NFL Alumni ring every day. He told me he lent it to his friends a lot when they were in their 30s to help them pick up chicks at bars!

sacker12 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Screencap I took from a video for FIU's 2010 Sun Belt Conference football championship rings. It reads "CHAMPIONS" on the top row and "2010" on the bottom row.EDIT: Better pick I found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I don't think I would wear my ring everyday. Not because I wouldn't want to, but because they've gotten so large and obnoxious they're not really practical for everyday wear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least MLB hasn't quite reached the NFL level of absurd championship rings. I haven't gotten to see a Giants ring on someone's hand yet but in the pictures it looks like it might actually be small enough to wear.

infrared41 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I didn't go back and read 11 pages to see if this one has been posted but... This is an interesting design. I'm guessing it's modeled after old Busch Stadium. I'm not sure if I like it but I have to admit it's unique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
