    When I was younger, I tried to collect boogers and try to eventually accumulate one as big as a soccer ball.

    Yeah and it was a total failure. I barely got it to the size of a marble, and that took months! Then my mum was like "wtf" and threw it away...

    I also used to collect my fallen teeth when I was younger as well. Didn't wanna give it to the tooth fairy. My teeth are worth more than a damn quarter! Then mum saw it and was like "wtf" again and threw it away...

    I collect casino chips, mainly of the $1 variety, but some $5 if they are limited edition. I currently have $1 chips from every casino on the Strip and Fremont Street in Vegas.

    past: Basketball cards, Rockets Giveaways

    present: DVDs, I don't buy as much as before, but if I see a good deal on a movie I don't own, I usually buy it, my collection is about 250 with a wide range of variety

    Rockets hats, I have about 30 of them, I never buy a hat though thats more than $20, mostly off of Ebay

    Jerseys, mostly Rockets of course, ones I'll never wear that I own, but could still fit me? Ricky Williams/Dolphins, Stromile/Rockets (which I NEVER wore cause I bought it AFTER the 05-06 season), Bonzi/Rockets Swingman (may just wear it when I go swimming), and Moulds/Texans

    Rarest? Adam Morrison Bobcats Blue Alternate Swingman jersey, that jersey is so sweet is so many ways.

    I collect exotic percussion instruments and classic album covers (which I frame and put on the wall). My wife collects 45 singles (for her jukebox).

    This makes for a pretty interesting "music" room in our house.
