I am sure there are some cracking pieces of memorabilia and associated stories around the country and wider afield. An opportunity to share them as we settle in for an extended lockdown!

My Armagh jersey from 2002!
We where drinking the day after the final in Dublin with a few Kerry lads, they wanted to swap jerseys when a friend of mine stopped me saying “this is the jersey you wore the day Armagh won the All Ireland think of all the memories it will bring you in years to come” He was dead right

Match programme from All Ireland semi final replay against Roscommon 1977.
Was in Cusack Stand-the early game was a Dublin Hurling Club Championship match and during it my Dad pointed out to me the Armagh team who were standing a few seats away from me. They must have come into the stand to take in the sight and surroundings. I stood there gaping with eyes popping out of my head. Denis Stevenson obviously noticed this awestruck kid and came over and asked if I wanted my programme signed. He passed it around the team and they all signed. I remember being struck at how nervous big Tom McCreesh seemed to be, sitting almost biting his nails. Joe Kernan came across as very focused-he signed but just stared straight ahead out at the field. Like-wise Paddy Mo was getting into game mode. Colm McKinstry seemed very chilled. It was magical and that programme is still in my Fathers house. Always appreciate the kind gesture of Denis Stevenson of taking the time to do that

Pretty sure I've still got the armagh flag from the early 90s the one with armagh written on it and with a wooden stick which I'm sure is broken after hitting thems with it

Have all the official GAA match ticket stubs from 2002
Quarter final, semi and final. Official old school ones.
Might be worth something one day

Have all my match tickets stubs stored in a photograph album, my oldest is the 1992 All Ireland Final. Not going to lie, there is a gap between then until 1999 when I became a proper all in supporter or as my brother would refer to it "a bandwagon jumper" :) Mind you I haven't jumped off the bandwagon since & have become more & more obsessed as the years have passed.

I really miss "proper" tickets & even getting the old credit card style Season ticket. Printing a ticket in a piece of A4 paper or scanning your phone just isn't the same :(

Ah priceless!

Definitely miss the old stubs etc for nostalgia. The Ulster final ticket the last 2 years were old fashioned weren’t they?

I'm not sure. I was at them but near sure I had the A4 paper print out but maybe was a choice. Old school definitely the way forward. Wish they would go back to them

AM 13 ( or as I refer to them..bandwagon jumper) got me a framed pic of us and our dad ( not in the best of health unfortunately) taken at "The homecoming " for Xmas. One to treasure for the rest of my days.

I have an autograph book with all the signatures of the 77 AIF team. ( Very special).

So many programs from so many games.

Also all of the tapes ( now transferred to DVD) of the big ( and some not so big) games from 98-2008.
