The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled a very special, officially licensed College Basketball Game Used Championship Court Bobblehead Series on Friday. This first-of-its-kind bobblehead series features each school’s mascot standing on a piece of the game used court that each team played on when they won the National Championship with the National Championship logo and historic details on the top of the base.
The first series features the Baylor Bears who won the 2021 Men’s Basketball National Championship, the Kansas Jayhawks who won the 2022 Men’s Basketball National Championship and the LSU Tigers who won the 2023 Women’s Basketball National Championship. The individually numbered bobbleheads are being produced by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, an official licensee of each school. The court pieces are being supplied by Cincinnati based Artsman, a company that creates handcrafted artifacts from game-used elements of sports history including the Men’s and Women’s College Basketball National Championship games. The officially licensed bobbleheads, which are expected to ship in October, are now available at this link.
Baylor’s bobblehead features Bruiser standing on an actual piece of the court that Baylor played on when it won the 2021 Men’s Basketball National Championship in Indianapolis, Indiana, on April 5, 2021. The title marked the first Men’s Basketball National Championship for Baylor. Kansas’ bobblehead features Big Jay standing on an actual piece of the court that Kansas played on when it won the 2022 Men’s Basketball National Championship in New Orleans, Louisiana, on April 4, 2022. LSU’s bobblehead features Mike the Tiger standing on an actual piece of the court that LSU played on when it won the 2023 Women’s Basketball National Championship in Dallas, Texas, on April 2, 2023. Additional schools will be added soon.
“We are excited to be releasing this first-of-its-kind series of bobbleheads incorporating the court that the LSU Tigers won the 2023 Women’s Basketball National Championship on,” National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum co-founder and CEO Phil Sklar said. “These bobbleheads are the ultimate way to celebrate the thrill of victory and commemorate LSU’s championship. These will be cherished keepsakes that will be passed down from generation to generation.”
The bobbleheads, which will be individually numbered to coincide with the championship year, are $100 each plus an $8 flat-rate shipping charge per order.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum on this unique series of College Basketball Court Bobbleheads,” commented Chris Rose, Managing Partner for Artsman. “This partnership allows us to blend our passion for basketball and our dedication to craftsmanship, bringing to life a product that celebrates the iconic moments of March Madness. We look forward to fans enjoying these bobbleheads, each standing on a piece of history.”
