    Default trophies

    so.. from past shows, (and sports for me) what do yall (or did you) do with all your trophies?

    i hate to just trash em, but what else is there to do with them?

    ive got a TON in my storage room and its just taking up room!

    i had a bunch of tennis trophies that i took out to the court and used as target practice. i keep the ones that are important to me and if i throw them out i usually keep the plate that says what it was from.

    But seriously, my old sports ones are either in a box in the attic or in the garbage. The one I got from a national car show is the only one I display on the bookcase in my computer room.

    Jimmy, I'd take my more favorite/memorable ones and keep those and take the rest to a recycling yard. Maybe take your first trophy earned and some other "milestone" trophies and keep those. I recycled all mine except for a couple. Later, QD.

    Check the dates/years on them. If you can get the dates, you'll probably remember which one came first. Later, QD.
