A piece of Philadelphia sports history is up for grabs, with a Super Bowl LIX championship ring now available for bidding. The coveted souvenir was created in honor of the Eagles' 40-22 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs and features an impressive array of diamonds, including twin football-shaped ones representing the team's two Lombardi trophies.
Former rugby player Laekin Vakalahi, who joined the Eagles as an undrafted free agent in 2024 but saw action in just a few preseason games before being cut, is now auctioning off his championship ring. The unique piece boasts several custom features, including a hidden button that triggers the release of pop-out wings etched with head coach Nick Sirianni's motto "You can't be great without the greatness of others."
The ring, valued at an estimated $80,000, also comes with its original custom box featuring LED lighting and a turntable. With bidding now open through December 20, fans looking to own a piece of Eagles history may have just two weeks to get in on the action.
As the current price tag is $40,000, it remains to be seen how high the auction will go. One thing's for sure: this ring is a one-of-a-kind treasure that will likely appeal to die-hard Eagles fans willing to shell out the cash.

i mean, who would've thought some rugby player would be getting rid of his super bowl ring lol. i guess you could say he's moving on from the gridiron to the auction block 
. anyone thinking of splurging $40k for that custom box tho? it sounds like a work of art 
. But $80k? That's like, crazy talk! Maybe it'll go up to $60k and then stop 
Guess some people are more interested in flaunting their fandom than saving a buck.
. Laekin Vakalahi might not be a household name, but he's getting rewarded for being part of the team's history 
. Its also super cool that the ring has a hidden button and pop-out wings - sounds like something outta a superhero movie 
. Whoever buys it is gonna have an amazing conversation starter! 
Can you believe Laekin Vakalahi is selling his Super Bowl ring? I mean, the guy was cut from the team in like 2 games, but still gets a piece of history... guess that's what they call 'greatness of others' right? 
. Seriously though, $80k is steep for just a ring, but hey if you're an Eagles fan and want to flash that cash... go for it! 
. And $40k is already pretty steep 
. I mean, what's next? A person auctioning off their used sock collection 
? Just saying... the hidden button with Nick Sirianni's motto is actually kinda cool though 
. Maybe someone can make a DIY version and save themselves some cash 
. I'm not surprised it's already at $40k, though - these rings aren't cheap 
️.
. I mean, I get it, not everyone can afford all that fancy stuff or have the connections to auction it off. But still, I guess it's better than just letting it collect dust in some old box 
. And hey, if you're an Eagles fan and can afford $40k, go for it! It's definitely a unique piece of history that'll be worth something in the future 
. The fact that it comes with this sick custom box too is just the icing on the cake 
. Maybe I'm just being cheap, but 80 grand seems like a lot for me 
.
i mean, who wouldn't want a piece of eagles history in their life? 
. Ultimately, though, this auction feels like a win-win for fans and Vakalahi alike – they get to own a unique piece of history, and he gets to share in the nostalgia and appreciation that comes with it 
.
The price tag may be $40k but trust me it's WORTH IT 
. I'm tempted to bid, but $40k is still kinda steep for me 
.
