Sean Taylor Towels.
 
Man if I would've been able to go to this game and received a towel I would probably treasure that thing forever. I cant believe how many people are selling theirs and how high they are. Its disgusting.

not surprising, there were guys offering to buy the towels for $10 bucks from Bills fans...

classless

You won't get mine. Those I hope are sold by Bills fans of which there were a few.

The Danny should make more available for $5.00 apiece at the Redskins store to remove any demand that the eBay opportunists would have.

I agree, even if they charged like 20 bucks for them. I want one but I cant justify spending over 50 bucks on one.

Um. You guys notice the ebay thread with a picture of the club level seat tickets? All of these people should be ashamed of themselves.

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
What sucked is that not every fan at the game got one like they had said. By the time I had entered the stadium the people at the gate said that they were out. I do not understand how that could happen. If your stadium seats 93,000 then you should have ordered more than enough towels for everyone. I would hate to think that the people supplying them were hawking extras causing a shortage.

I was in the stadium a little after 11 am.
Got my towel.
Keeping my towel.
Framing my towel.

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
well I hate to say this for those of you who didnt get a towel, but I unknowing got 2 of them. Just reached my hand out to get one, and didnt really notice at first and when I did, I thought, this is great, I can give one to my son. I agree they SHOULD have had more than 93000 made so everyone had one. Or maybe they made enough, but some dirtbags put them aside to try and capitalize on them, who knows.

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
My wife and I each got a towel, and we also each were given a Redskins hat.

The most disgusting thing I saw was when I walked into the bathroom at halftime, and saw over a dozen of those towels laying in the floor. Jerks.

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
I know I said I'd probably be gone all week...sue me...anyway, I just saw where one is listed at over $100...this week has really soured me on the whole "Redskins experience." I'm a fan through and through...but I can't wait til this season ends

Sammy Baugh Fan 12-03-2007 10:36 AM

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
There are over 80 towels on ebay now.
I hope these are all Bill's fans

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
I got my towel, and will keep it with my ticket stub as remembrance of being there. Maybe I'll get a shadowbox with an image or 2 of Sean...or it'll sit in a box, collecting dust. Much better there than me selling my soul on eBay...

AlvinWalton'sNeckBrace 12-03-2007 10:42 AM

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
yeah...I am trying to get one for my brother for christmas...but I'm not paying over $20

RiggoDrill 12-03-2007 01:11 PM

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
I was a little disappionted that I didn't get one. I got intop the stadium earlier than I ever have before, and even 40 minutes before kickoff there were none left.
Bets are you will see a few dudes in the parking lot Thursday night selling them. It's just the law of nature, anytime a truck full merchandise is headed somewhere, a few boxes fall off and into the hands of opportunistic capitalists.

AlvinWalton'sNeckBrace 12-03-2007 01:19 PM

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
If anyone happened to pick up any "extras" I would gladly pay $20 bucks plus shipping. Like I said, I'm trying to get one for my brother (somehow a bigger fan than I am) for Christmas. I would much rather pay one of you guys than somebody on Ebay just trying to make a quick buck.

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
My boyfriend and I wanted so badly to go to a Redskins game this year, however we simply couldn't afford it. We would love to be one of the lucky one's with one of those towels, but I will never, ever support the exploitation that is taking place on ebay at this terrible time. In his honor I bought 2 of the memorial t-shirts beings sold by the redskins shop. They now hang neatly folded on either side of the stadium flag in our living room. True fans keep their treasures and treasure their memories.

This is the state of the fans within FedEx these days, I'm afraid. They just don't care.

I've been to games before where they're giving away stuff. The people giving it away clearly don't care if you take one or 10. I guess they figure that once it's all gone, their job is over and can go sit down somewhere.

firstdown 12-03-2007 02:51 PM

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
THe selling of all this ST stuff would go on no matter what team this was. Its just a fact of life that some fans for all teams will do this.

There are scumbags from every walk of life looking to make a buck off of anything and everything. This is just another example of how money rules the world.

I think that would be a fair price (maybe $10). The revenue could go to the fund for Sean Taylor's daughter. I wanted to get one for my brother but didn't feel like I should ask for two.

It would be nice if all fans had the opportunity to have one of these.

It sucks to see the ebay sales prices. It shouldn't be about money.

Big sign on Redskins.com says any profits from sales of sean taylor gear will be donated to the trust fund.

ANOTHER class act by the Daniel, in the last week.

Am I missing something? What is there besides the jerseys...I would LOVE to have something to remember this guy by...especially if the money goes to the trust fund


...ps, I am getting already getting a jersey, that's why I said "besides the jerseys"

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
My wife just sent some guy from ebay this message-

"I think it's absolutely disgusting that you would want to profit off of someone's unfortunate death. Sean Taylor was a great football player and better yet a great person!! I went to the game yesterday and was lucky enough to recieve a towel but it's because of people like you that others who arrived later didn't. If you were any kind of football fan, or person for that matter, I can't see how you could do this. It makes me very very angry! I would love to have more than one towel to give to some of my family that couldn't make it, but its because of my nature that I didn't do this... have a heart!!"

She said that dude had 6 listed and they were all selling for crazy amounts. I think she said 2 or 3 went for over $100.00! Ridiculous!

If their mass produced and sold is it really the same as having one that was actually at the stadium that day and part of the tribute ceremony?

Redskins.com store has them now for $3.99

The Skins are selling them for 4 bucks... and the proceeds go to the memorial fund:

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
yeah...I bought 2. I guess it kind of sucks if you have the real deal...but I can't really get to games, and its something I'll have to remember #21 by.

Smooter 12-04-2007 06:41 PM

Re: Sean Taylor Towels.
 
Thats great they did that, it will really knock out the Ebay sharks. My fiance bought me one for like 30 bucks today on Ebay while I was at work and thought she got a good deal.

Becarefule...the towels on Redskins.com are not the ones handed out at the game. I was there and me and my girlfriend got one and it is a white towel with just the 21 on it.
