Bruce Springsteen and fans, circa 1980. HipQuotient.comOne bedsheet with the words Merry Christmas, Bruce Springsteen
One stuffed dog
Five Santa Claus hats, three of them stenciled Bruce
One box of a dozen Twinkies
One box of a dozen Hostess Cupcakes (you just know the roadies made off with the junk food)
Three two-foot Christmas stockings stenciled Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band
An 18-inch Christmas card with 4 rubber gnome musicians taped to it
Two ordinary Christmas cards
One gift-wrapped package the size and shape of a shoebox
One rubber duck

McDuffie reported that a dozen pairs of women’s panties were thrown onto the stage at Bruce’s Pittsburgh show on December 1, 1980. I was at that concert, of course…but kept my undies on. It was really cold that night.
