Hey All!
I’ve done something similar in the past, but I recently discovered that I have two Dallas Goedert signed mini helmets, and only need the one! In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I wanted to give one away. All I want from you guys is to share out your favorite Eagles-related story or memory. I’ve attached a linked pic to the authenticated mini helmet for those skeptical. Happy Thanksgiving and Go Birds!
I’ll select the lucky redditor this Friday, and DM them accordingly.
In September of 2017 I lost my dad. Just months after graduating college, and it had been years since his side of the family had all gotten together since the passing of my grandparents. All of his brothers were gathered at our house and we were watching the Eagles-Giants game. Yes, THAT Eagles-Giants game. September 24th, 1 second left, Jake Elliott (back when he was still proving himself), nailed that 61 yard field goal to win the game. My uncles were jumping out of their seats as that ball crossed the upright. And we SWEAR, my dad touched that ball to give it the extra bit it needed to clear the posts. It gives me goosebumps just thinking of that again because it was such a special with family that we hadn’t experienced in years. Followed by so many tears knowing we didn’t get to share that moment with my Dad. Then fast forward, to the Eagles winning the Super Bowl. Something my Dad always dreamed of seeing. But we all watched it together as a family and we knew he was right there with us
