Rice Memorabilia Sales On The Rise

I think some people thought that after leaving Oakland, Jerry's Raiders Memorabilia would be hard to sell. The fact is that Raider fans, who are some of the most loyal fans in the world, still love Jerry Rice and are sorry he is gone. In the last game they were chanting his name, wanting him to play. Rice never wanted to be traded, he was just lied to by the Raiders regarding his position with them.

Since Jerry has been traded, Raiders memorabilia sales have soared, actually Jerry Rice memorabilia overall is up on this trade. Raider fans feel that it will be harder to get Raider items from Jerry since he isn't there any more, so they are out collecting whatever they can.

As we reported here on Oct 19, Steve Largent let Jerry wear his #80. That jersey has been retired for over 15 years in Seattle. That is the kind of respect Jerry Rice has in the NFL and he will continue to be one of the most collectible players in the NFL for many years to come.
