The Duke jersey that Tupac Shakur wore is now on sell. The auction runs until August 5th, and the current top bid is sitting at $1,600. Get to bidding Duke fans. The detail is in the fine print of the auction though.
The jersey included in this framed display is not the one worn by Tupac in the historic photograph, but rather his personal jersey that he frequently wore during his down time and at home.
For those that think they're getting the jersey from this infamous picture, clearly that isn't true. That said, pretty interesting to find out Shakur had multiple Jeff Capel jerseys. I guess he wasn't one of those that were so hard on Capel during his latter years at Duke.
Multiple Duke jerseys would lead some to believe Tupac was a die-hard Duke fan. Of course if you watched the HBO Documentary Defiant Ones which wrapped up last night, you would have seen Shakur in a UNC shirt.

Regardless of the fandom of this legendary rapper, a Tupac owned Duke jersey would be quite the memorabilia to have. Get to bidding.
