Default what do YOU do with your trophy's?

i got lots of trophy's and plaques from racing my S2000 in Honda Challenge and each year my wife and I do this goofy "capital city challenge" (run, bike and canoe) where we win a trophy each year.....

what do you do with your trophy's? display them? put them in a box? throw them in the garbage? (i am leaning towards the garbage option).

I put shelves up high on my garage walls and stuff them up there. There's way to many of them now and they seem to get tossed all over the garage. I really need to get toss some of them out.

If you have children I would suggest putting the trophies in their room. That way they can act as a constant reminder of what goals they must achieve in your eyes and that they will never live up to the expectations set upon them.

Donate them to the Boys and Girls Club of America or a similar organization.

I just threw away a bunch of old Bowling trophies that were stored in a box in the basement...I never displayed them. When my Oldman was alive he had all his Bowling trophies displayed.

ya, i feel pretty dorky putting up plaques and trophy's (screw you magic man...ahahh)......... they just don't mean much to me. the guy that my wife and I do the challenge thing with (it is a 3 person team) throws his in the garbage.....i will probably do that tomorrow.....

I would probably keep something like a "NATIONAL" win, or something that was very meaningfull.....(not sure what that would be)..... driving a car better than a handfull of other retards is not very newsworthy.

Oh my God thank you. I was thinking...My trophy's what? Trophies can't possess anything. I'm confused. Now I'm not alone.
