Largent Legacy Poster

[Hawkstorian]

This is an ebay image that I stole, but I have 3 of these extra. They were handed out at Steve Largent's final home game in 1989, a moment I had the privilege to attend (even though we lost).

I'll gladly mail them for free to 3 lucky fans, based on a totally arbitrary process where I pick my 3 favorite respondents from the Seahawks.Net community. My only requirement is that you display it proudly in your living space. Bribery will also gain you preference, but any such funds will go to my favorite charity.

I have one of those. Proudly display it in my office. Not even sure where I got it. Fairly certain I wasn’t at Largent last game.

What a cool thing to do. You, sir, are an effin badass .

This is the kind of thing (amongst others) that make .net the best online community available to mankind.

Thanks Storian.

That would look great next to my two Largent Blue Angel posters (the standard one with the post-retirement one).....but I don't even have a place for those.

I miss pennants. I remember back in the day my walls were covered in pennants. I had 1 wall for all the teams and 3 walls for just Seahawks.

Just WOW!

What a great poster for an absolute legend.

The haircut should date this picture (early 80’s). I had gotten his jersey for Christmas in my youth. I wore this out playing pickup tackle football. By the end of it life the letters and number were falling off and some burn holes from camping trips to close to the fire. I remember when Largent retired. I was at the football Hall of Fame in Canton Ohio and they had a massive 10+ foot trophy commemorating Steve since had had broken about every receiving record at the time of his retirement.

The poster my buddy had on his wall in junior high — that is the image missing in this collage.

I also have the Wheaties box in the poster. The cereal is long gone but the box remains.

As a kid, ANY time someone dropped something, football, baseball, any object.........we would say "Largent would have caught it"

Nice!

Dude was my hero growing up.. Same first name. I never knew until later that he also grew up without his dad around (we share this as well). The guys is a pretty inspirational person. For you youngsters that didn't grow up watching him it's time well spent digging into how great this guy was.

Very cool.

I have a Largent for Congress hat and that's probably the rarest SL thing I have.

I saw the game where Largent got clocked, then where he got his revenge! I can still remember somebody yelling "They said it wasn't a penalty!!" Something close to that...
