This isn't just furniture; it’s a tangible piece of college football history that belongs in the ultimate fan cave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrafted from the original seating of Memorial Stadium, this bench is built from ultra-rare Alaskan Yellow Cedar (historically referred to as Alaskan White Pine).
