Autograph Memorabilia
Stampede Inaugural Magazine Austin Wranglers
Acquired: Gift 2004

I am a big fan of football and even went to Texas Terminator games in 2001 of the IPFL, Austin Knights/Rockers in 2002, and then finally followed the Austin Wranglers of the AFL in 2004- but by this point, I hadn’t gotten back into collecting autographs myself yet.  That wouldn’t happen for another 5 years or so.  Thankfully though my cousin got me a game program full of autographs back in 2004, that I found recently when digging through some boxes.

Ramon Richardson played 5 seasons in the AFL after being signed by the Austin Wranglers in 2004. His best season came in 2006 where he recorded 21 tackles and 2.5 sacks for the team. Richardson played one final season in 2008 for the Cleveland Gladiators recording 12 tackles and a sack before retiring in 2009. In addition to his time in the AFL Ramon played 2 seasons for the Tulsa Talons in 2002 and 2003 notching 47 tackles and 9.5 sacks.
