Hopefully they have a team issued golf bag that sells for under ten bills or whatever outrageous price the one and only golf bag sold for during the victor e ball.

The Victor E. Ball is a fund raising event, so overbids are welcome! The garage sale is better for bargain hunting.

I call dibs on anything worn by Greg Barksdale and Connor Schneider!

Gol-dangit you beat me to it. I might have to settle for Billy Lowe gear.

Went to the gear sale. Nicely done! They had lots of tables and racks of stuff - new and game-used. I got home and away football jerseys, home and away basketball jerseys, and a great football sideline jacket. Things were reasonably priced. All jerseys were $25.

A word of warning: They're doing road construction on I-88. Down to one lane from Naperville to DeKalb and back. This will not be pretty when school starts, assuming they are not finished.

What no cheerleader skirts!

88 is indeed a mess, as is half of the other roads I drive in Illinois. Last I heard they were suppose to be done by the time school starts though.

Again, thank you for supporting NIU.


GO HUSKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great event. Lots of great deals.

Agreed. Hope they do this every year. Bought a couple of shirts and a pair of warm up pants that I don't think were ever worn. Each was $5.

Anyone with size 14-16 shoes needs to get out there. Never seen a rack of shoes where the smallest size basically started at 12 LoL

I had a big wad (of cash) ready for a pile of cheerleader garments, but there was none to be had. A disappointment, indeed, but maybe I can just order some. As with everything else, it can be yours for a big enough wad.

Didn't get there til 3, most shirts/shorts gone I guess outside of soccer. Liked the baseball jersesys but no xxl/52.

Saw at least 3 people with duffle bags full of merchandise.

One guy had at least 37 shirts (they counted at least that many I heard @ register) many of which looked new, decent. Some golf shirts. Bunch of jerseys too. His total was $525. Not sure if his next stop was for resale or that was XMAS for the whole family.

Some of those shoes were really nice. Guessing 10-11 is most common size as the had plenty smaller and larger.

Wish I had gotten their earlier.

Probably the next stop for the mega shoppers is eBay.

Did anyone get an email on the gear sale? I didn't. The only way I knew about it was on this thread. Like many others, I don't check niuhuskies.com every day.

I was told, that they had a flyer at the Paper Grotto. I'm surprised you didn't see it.

I also received an advance email.

Hopefully in the future they will sell some of this online so those of us who live far away can purchase.

I don't look at the flyers there. I know what I want and I go right to it. They really screw me up, however, when they move the multi-functional sex toys to another aisle.
