While browsing the internet yesterday, I stumbled across a very cool Veterans Stadium-themed collectible: Vet Stadium seat Christmas ornaments.

Growing up going to Phillies and Eagles games at The Vet during the late-80s/early-90s, made me love the place. I would often defend it to outsiders as "a dump (yes), but our dump." And when they started selling it off during the Winter of 2003, I was first in line to pick up a pair of blue seats. Since then I have bought a few pieces here and there - always on the lookout for new additions. What I've learned is it doesn't have to be expensive to be a quality collectible.

These blue, Vet Stadium seat ornaments offered by Cardz and Starz (Vineland, NJ) approximately measure 2"x2"have all the makings of a good value pickup. At a price of three ornaments for $15, you could buy a set and split them up as nice holiday gifts for other Philly sports fans - or keep them all for yourself (guilt free). One thing is sure, you won't find too many others who have this decoration adorning their tree.
