Inter Miami Sells Grass Touched by Messi's Feet!

Inter Miami is allowing fans to purchase pieces of its former playing surface, a move highlighted by the launch of 'The O.G.' collection. These unique memorabilia items feature sections of grass that once bore witness to the sweat and effort of iconic players such as Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba. The collection offers fans a direct connection to the team's history and legendary athletes.

The available memorabilia ranges in price, with special keychains priced at $50, containing loose strands of grass. More substantial offerings include acrylic boxes, with sizes varying the cost from $200 up to $750. This initiative allows supporters to own a tangible piece of the club's legacy, an opportunity rarely presented by sports teams.

This practice of selling stadium elements is not entirely new in the football world. Notably, Messi's former club, Barcelona, also engaged in a similar fundraiser before a major renovation of Camp Nou. They offered small boxes of grass from their legendary venue, with prices beginning at $60. Inter Miami's current offering provides another unique avenue for fans to acquire a piece of footballing history.
