The College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta is set to unveil a new specialty exhibit to honor the 90th anniversary of the Heisman Memorial Trophy. The temporary exhibit will showcase rare artifacts, priceless memorabilia and interactive experiences that highlight the history and legacy of college football’s most prestigious individual award, which is given annually to the outstanding college football player whose performance epitomizes great ability combined with diligence, perseverance and hard work.

Among the highlights of the exhibit is a jersey from Yale’s Clinton Frank, who won the Heisman in 1937, making his jersey the exhibit’s oldest artifact from a Heisman-winning player. In addition to nine replica helmets spanning nine decades of Heisman winners, fans will also get to see unique campaign memorabilia such as Ty Detmer’s tie, Byron Leftwich’s bobblehead and DeAngelo Williams’ diecast NASCAR toy. Joe Burrow’s jersey, Bryce Young’s helmet, Ron Dayne’s cleats and Tony Dorsett’s shoulder pads are just some of the uniform pieces on display, as well as infographic posters detailing the origin and sculpting of the trophy and an interactive kiosk exploring the impact of the trophy on college football.

“The Heisman Trophy represents the very best of college football and is synonymous with excellence and tradition in the sport,” said Kimberly Beaudin, CEO of the College Football Hall of Fame. “For nearly a century, it has honored the players whose talents continue to inspire fans across the country, and this exhibit gives us the opportunity to share the legacy and importance of the award with visitors to The Hall.”

The exhibit will also contain details on the Heisman voting process, the programs boasting seven or more winners, and some of the most memorable moments in Heisman history, while a wall of portraits showcasing past Heisman Trophy winners will provide insights into the portrait process. Just outside the exhibit, guests will be able to see a display dedicated to the most recent Heisman Trophy winner, Suwanee native Travis Hunter, check out an exact replica of the Heisman Trophy, and can use The Hall’s interactive technology to virtually pose with the trophy.

“We created an exhibit that highlights the history of the Heisman and shows the creativity and culture surrounding the award,” said Denis Crawford, Lead Historian and Exhibit Designer of the College Football Hall of Fame. “Now, The Hall is proud to use its platform as a leader in the college football landscape to educate and excite fans with stories from the Heisman’s history and what the trophy means to college football.”

The Heisman Trophy exhibit will be housed in the Andrea and James Clarke Family Gallery on the second floor of the venue, and will be available to guests starting on Thursday, Oct. 16 until the spring of 2026. During their visit, fans are encouraged to strike their best Heisman pose, share it on social media, and join The Hall in celebrating college football’s most storied award.
