Have You Had Your Photo Opportunity?

[Midostouch]

Went to the Spurs shop today to have our photo taken with the Carling Cup. Was expecting to stand next to a cabinet with the Cup in it but we got to hold it - awesome! I know some of you will think £15 is a lot for a photo but in my opinion it's well worth it - and going to a good cause. And anyway my daughter got it for my Mother's Day present so can't be bad! :grin:

Thought it might be fun if people posted their pictures up here - I can't do it until I get to work and use their scanner....

It's pretty cool that you got to hold it. What was it like lifting the Keano Cup?

 

[nightgoat]

Aaaaah, so that's why there were people queueing outside the shop at 10am this morning...

I've got one of me with the FA Cup from 1981 somewhere. If you got the chance to go get it done, don't miss it, it's well worth the money.

It was an amazing feeling - the cup is quite heavy - but just the thought that the lads had held it - and all that it meant to everyone - well worth the money. It will be in the shop again tomorrow until 3pm.

When we had our picture taken we were thinking of Keano and for once it was really easy to have a natural smile in a photo!

In 1970 the then Chelsea manager Dave Sexton and player who scored the winning goal David Webb brought the FA Cup to our school in Enfield. We all got to touch it.

For just five quid you can come round my flat and touch the cup. Admittedly, it's not the Carling Cup, it's just a cup I bought in Woolworths for 99p, but I have drunk quite a few coffees in it.

Working for Barclaycard in 2006, I got a photo with the Premier League trophy - for free.

Did you know that there are two PL trophies? Although only one now has the words 'r scum' scratched after "2005/06 Chelsea" :wink:.

I wasn't allowed to take free picture. Disappointing. Then I looked at the CUP and it was not original CUP in Megastore. It was replica. There were no names of the teams on it. Just plain pot. I felt deeply hurt by such profanation.

The winners are inscribed on the base of the trophy,not the cup.
On the picture,i took of cup and its base you can clearly see Liverpool 2003.I dont know how to post a picture but its clearly there!

 

[Midostouch]

The base was on a podium next to the cup and that had all the winners on it. I am sure it was the genuine cup.
