What would you put inside the Martin Brodeur statue in Jersey?
As you know, the New Jersey Devils have made amends with Martin Brodeur and will honor the best player in franchise history (non-defenseman division) with a statue outside of Prudential Center that in no way will become a urinal for Newark locals.
The statue is going to be designed around Brodeur’s stick salute “at his last game,” which we assume means “as a Devil” and not wearing the Blue Note.
But the big news is that the statue isn’t just a statue – it’s a time capsule, and the Devils are offering five fans the chance to place their swag inside Brodeur.
From the Devils:
Fans can enter the contest at NewJerseyDevils.com/martymoments by describing their favorite Marty Moment and what piece of memorabilia they would like to enclose in the statue forever. Five winners will be selected and invited to be a part of the special ceremony on February 8 at Prudential Center. The statue is currently being built by renowned sculptor Jon Krawczyk, who designed the hockey figure that currently sits on Championship Plaza.
This is an interesting conundrum for a Devils fan: What if you have an amazing piece of Brodeur memorabilia – like a smoked-out post-Stanley Cup cigar, or the shavings from his rookie mustache, and you have to make the call between holding onto it or having the honor of placing it inside the ultimate tribute to Brodeur’s legacy? What do you do?!
While we hesitate to ask this, considering some of the expected answers, we’ll ask anyway: What would you put inside a Martin Brodeur statue?
