Sports Memorabilia collectors, get your check book out because this is a once in a lifetime piece of history up for auction.

Mike Eruzione, yes the Mike Eruzione, captain of the 1980 Team USA squad which pulled of the “Miracle on Ice” by beating the Soviet Union in the Winter Olympics, is selling his game-worn jersey.

The same jersey that he was rocking when he scored the game-winning goal against the Soviet Union could be hanging on your wall in the very near future. All you need is a cool $1 million, no big deal.

If you are looking to save a little, Eruzione is also auctioning off the hockey stick he used for the winning goal for an estimated $100,000, and the gold-medal jersey for $200,000.

Eruzione is reportedly selling the jersey so he can help pay for his grandchildren’s college education.
