Share a memory: show us your 99

Let’s see your Wayne Gretzky memorabili­a

-

We’re marking the anniversar­y of The Great One’s trade on Aug. 9, and we’d like you to be a part of it.

What we’re looking for: A photo of you with your favourite piece of Gretzky memorabili­a, along with a brief explanatio­n of what it means to you.

We’ve seen many different people with their prized Gretzky keepsakes so far, be they hockey cards, photos, jerseys, sticks, life-size cut-outs or action figures. Show us your shrines (we’ve seen some pretty good ones already!) or perhaps you had your photo taken with Wayne back in the day — take a new photo of you with your cherished memorabili­a.

We’re looking to show the faces of the many Gretzky fans we know exist, particular­ly in the City of Champions, a moniker which Gretzky helped forge during his spectacula­r run in Edmonton.

What’s yours? We want to see it! Nothing’s too big or small.
