I've been helping my grandfather, who brought me to my first 49er game back when I was 9 (1991) for my birthday, renovate a house. As we're clearing out a shed, he hands me a bottle of champagne and says he wants me to have it, knowing how much of a fan I am. I look down and see the SuperBowl XXIV logo engraved just above the brand sticker.
Was pretty excited. Montana's 4th SuperBowl. 55-10. Most lopsided SB ever, most ever points scored. Montana MVP and OPOY.
Thing is, I can't find any info on the bottle... Did they hand it out at the game? Was it sold after the fact?
Next thing I need to do is get it signed by Golden Joe hopefully. Maybe when the hotel deal goes through I can get down there for groundbreaking or something.
I'll try and get a picture up today.

Guessing they probably had a local run with the imprint afterwards. I'm sure you won't, but don't even entertain opening it. Champagnes even in their finest vintage's don't last more than 10 years, and that's when stored properly (not a shed)
