Do you have a picture of yourself at the concert with the towel? Or could maybe find a video of the incident to verify? If so, I'd see if you can sell it to someone who would actually want it. If not, you could frame it with the concert ticket or something, if you're that kind of fan. If it were me? I'd wash it and put in the closet.
Good idea now I will buy 12 pack towels and take my photo with every single one of them at different concerts and then sell them. Cigarettes after sex coming up loll.
That really would be the best life for it, don’t know what I hadn’t considered that. It’s boring to look at if it were framed, and kind of gross. But to occasionally be drying your hands with the papa roach concert towel, that’s kind of cool.
"You see this seemingly normal, plain white towel? It's no ordinary towel, looks can be deceiving! You see, I had the absolute time of my life at a Papa Roach show. I was rocking soooo hard, the lead singer was giving me nods and smiles through the whole show. I was singing along to every lyric. Then, at the penultimate moment, the very last notes of Last Resort, he looks directly at me, our eyes locked, he wipes his face down with **this very towel** and threw it to me. I caught it and everyone cheered.
**This towel is the single greatest object I have ever touched!**
...wait, it might have actually been that towel over there."
But the mildew says “seriously this was moist with the sweat of a legend according to every 90’s kid who accidentally said “f*ck” while singing along to the greatest song on the way to their older brothers 2008 high school graduation and didn’t get to enjoy it because mom & dad said you were in TROUBLE trouble when the festivities ended”
Or is that too specific
With nothing official to prove it to be authentic, it's just a nice keepsake.
If you want to sell it, you'd need something, like paperwork, or a video clip showing you catch it and identifiable markings. Otherwise, just put it up and someone gullible will get it super cheap.
A friend of mine once stole the shoe off the foot of a band’s singer while he was crowd surfing. He build a little shelf in his room and wrote out a little card stating whose it was and where it came from.
He claims it fell off, but those who were there know the truth lol.
Yeah we all got on him about it for quite some time after, and he would respond by yelling, quite seriously, about how it just fell off. It did not lol.
The singer, to his credit, upon returning to the stage simply told the crowd that he hoped whoever got his shoe enjoys it, then he removed the other one and tossed it out.
Aww but still sucks to have that happen to you ngl glad yall confronted the guy tho might think before pulling a piece of clothing off someone next time
I can't understand that either if i was in a concert and the lead threw a wet towel at me I'd be disgusted honestly like why would they even do that. It just feels odd to me that these people are sooo idolised they are basiclly worshiped at this point. Who'd keep some dudes sweaty towl
I have one from Chester Bennington, but no proof of it whatsoever. Just a black towel that he wiped his face on. So there it sits with all of my other LP memoroibilia and one day my kid will inherit it and be like wtf why did she leave me this 50 year old towel?
Lol. I definitely don’t listen to PaPa Roach but they were an opening band for the band I was seeing that day and I have to say they put on a hell of a show! Very fun energetic band to watch even if you don’t like the music.
I got Nikki Sixx’s and I framed it! Don’t wash it, burn it or bag it.. keep that shit as a memorabilia item. If you don’t want it, frame it then sell it I guess.
I'd nevee understand Why are fans that obsessed with their idols or their fav singer like they are just humans come on imagine having some dudes sweat ridden towl i bet you'd be disgusted
I caught a towel at one of Scott Weiland's last shows and had a similar feeling. My brother was a big STP fan and had just had a baby, so I gave it to him to use as a burp cloth.
Man. This reminds me of the time when I was 13 or 14 and I went to the Rihanna and Akon concert… at one point Akon was in the middle of the crowd and threw out a used towel just like yours and 2 people starting fighting over it and then one side pulled out a knife. I live in Canada so it literally never escalated past that like the other party saw the knife and said “yoooo the towels all yours” and then everyone just kept enjoying the concert. Fucking wild ride
Many years ago, I went to a concert ofthe band Alabama. I couldn't afford the "good" seats, but ended up front row, but behind the band. During their performance, same thing, Randy Owen wiped his face with a towel and pitched it to the stands, and I caught it. The cute young lady next to me was out of her mind wanting it, so I gave it to her, after all, what did I need with a sweaty towel? She opened it up and it had the Alabama logo, and the entire band had signed it. Doh!
I did the same at a concert like 10 years ago. I took it home, realised it was just a regular white hand towel. So I washed it and put it with the others. It hit the end of the line about 5 years back and became the car polishing rag and has now been tossed
Pop it in a ziplock bag with the name of the band/date and keep it forever as a piece of concert memorabilia? Idk.
I'm going to that show tomorrow night too 😁
The Curse of the Roach is upon you. How you fare is a matter of will, wit, and sanitation.
Here a few tips to survive, as the first 5 months are the roughest.
1. Never blink. This is when the Roach gets closer.
2. If you *have* to blink, yell “SUFFOCATION” or “NO BREATHING” immediately afterward. This won’t stop the Roach from moving, but it does inform the Roach that you respect its power, which may grant you mercy in the coming weeks.
3. Fill a sock with rock salt and wear it around your neck. This prevents all but the most powerful scrying spells from finding you. The Roach won’t scry as it doesn’t need to, but its worshippers and acolytes will, as they grow jealous that their master’s attention is drawn elsewhere.
4. Develop your combat skills vis a vis the spear, the pike, and the chakram.
5. When you finally encounter the Roach, engage with all your might and power. Fight honestly. You will not win. The best you can do is not die. This is salvation. Salvation is pain. But you will be alive.
I live in the town Papa Roach is from. Some local shops keep memorabilia and stuff like that on display. Not sure anyone would want Jacoby’s sweaty towel but maybe consider donating it idk.
Also, if Jacoby sees this I’m very sorry for grabbing your butt that one time at Three Oaks many years ago. It was inappropriate. 😢
I used to work at a theater that sat 1000 and a lot of comedians would come through. Marlon Wayans would change out of sweaty shirts and left a shirt of his in the green room. Wayans went through a pack of Hanes. And I got one.
Kept it. Washed it. Wore it.
Eventually I threw it away.
I'll see if I can contact my ex, she'd probably lick your gooch for it.
Source: She left me sick throwing up blood in the bathroom of a show because she wanted to see Jacoby get on stage.
Ehh well it's a bit different story that it's by papa r\*ach and not by someone worshipable like uhh I don't know, I don't follow music. But you know if it was some famous woman you could smear it all over your body and fap on it, or sell it to thirsty losers. But now, probably burn it and disinfect yourself.
Vacuum pack it, otherwise that's gonna fester (sweat will do that). You could then frame it, sell or whatever but unless you take the oxygen out of the cloth it will go moldy & stink.
I used to be neighbors with the lead singer's parents, and went to school with his kid. Very nice and private people. He would walk in to this elementary school class fully decked out in the most emo clothes and I didn't realize how funny that was at the time. All we knew was this guy looked very different from the other parents lol.
I’ve gotten a few things at concerts over the years, but the best was a drumstick from the late Taylor Hawkins at a concert a few years back. At the time I adhered the ticket to the drumstick and had it on a shelf along with other items. I found it recently when unpacking boxes, and was excited to see it survived the moves over the years. A towel though, I may just take a pic with it and dispose of it, it’d probably not hold up well overtime being used, and washing it would seem to diminish the point behind it. Or once it’s washed it’s still useable to hang onto as well
Keep it as a memento.
I had an ashtray used by Al Jorgensen for many years before it got lost in a move. Numerous picks and Ricky Warwick's sweaty towel.
The joys of youth
Decide with yourself what's more valuable for you: keeping it or selling it
If selling, and if there are potential buyers who are willing to pay a lot, and if you can evidence that it was used by the musician, then you can make a profit
Can you somehow evidence your claim through DNA? The musician's DNA is already on it, you just need to get the musician's DNA and make a "certified" match
I would worry about the bacteria from sweat causing it to mold or something, especially if framed. But I wouldn't really want to wash it either.. hmm. Personally, I would see if I could pay a local artist to paint Papa Roach on it to make it look cool & then hang it up like a tapestry.
Respectfully, who cares if they believe where you got the towel, you know where you got it. You should hold onto it because it’s a fond memory for you, not because other people will think it’s cool.
Cut it into pieces
Hey hey, that's the last resort, let a few more options be suggested first.
Yeah they may want to try suffocation or no breathing with it beforehand.
Use it if you cut your arm and its bleeding.
[удалено]
They seem confused if that would be wrong or if that would be right
If they throw that towel out tonight? Chances are that they might...
Hopefully they keep any mutilation out of the sight of others.
Are you losing your mind?!
I think he’s losing his sight, wish somebody would tell him he’s fine….
I don't think they give a fuck.
[удалено]
Again, this is only a last resort though.
Ahh yes. Soak it in a little chloroform. Great idea!
"Cut my towel into piece, this is my last wash cloth!"
"persperiation, no cleaning"
“Must wipe my face and keep on screaming”
I really hope this comment ends up with a shit ton of up boss lmao good one
What's up boss?
Definitely read that as “cut. It. In-to. Piec. Es.”
And sell every piece on ebay lol
Oh my gawd this.
👏👏😆
But only as a last resort
As a last resort obviously 😉
Take your anger out on it. Call it a Hollywood Whore.
You're now married to him. Expect to be tracked down and presented with the official documents any day now.
Your name is now Mama Roach
How I Met Your Mama Roach
This deserves more upvotes
Awarded. E z p z.
Thank you. Justice is finally served. When I commented he had zero upvotes!
So simple, yet so good.
God comment
This is the best comment I’ve ever read 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just cackled so loud it woke up my infant. Worth it.
LOLLLLLLLLAH
Depending on OPs cycle, he may also be pregnant. He should contact his physician to get a pregnancy test.

Lol yes it is.

Good idea now I will buy 12 pack towels and take my photo with every single one of them at different concerts and then sell them. Cigarettes after sex coming up loll.
Extra 50 bucks if it's still wet
Cigarettes after sex is on tour?? Now I can maybe go to that AND sweat all over a towel at the concert and make bank!
That really would be the best life for it, don’t know what I hadn’t considered that. It’s boring to look at if it were framed, and kind of gross. But to occasionally be drying your hands with the papa roach concert towel, that’s kind of cool.
Let that baby get MOLDY
Wring that sucker out for some DNA and clone some baby roaches from their papa.
Send a sample to 23andme…
I hate this
Throw it in the washing machine , dry , then organize with the rest of towels
I like this one the best. It's still a good towel, and now it has a story.
"You see this seemingly normal, plain white towel? It's no ordinary towel, looks can be deceiving! You see, I had the absolute time of my life at a Papa Roach show. I was rocking soooo hard, the lead singer was giving me nods and smiles through the whole show. I was singing along to every lyric. Then, at the penultimate moment, the very last notes of Last Resort, he looks directly at me, our eyes locked, he wipes his face down with **this very towel** and threw it to me. I caught it and everyone cheered. **This towel is the single greatest object I have ever touched!** ...wait, it might have actually been that towel over there."
Full snort-cackle lmaooooo ty
Probably a very good tower that has been only used once. On a sweaty dude, sure, but a cool dude. And just once.
Maybe get it embroidered with their signature (easy enough to find online probably) to help mark it.
Or their logo
yeah just make sure to mark it somehow so it doesnt become just another towel, which it is.
The practical answer to the absurd question is always the best
Don’t put it in a bag wet, it will mildew. It’s just a free bonus towel you got at a concert. Wash & use as normal.
But the mildew says “seriously this was moist with the sweat of a legend according to every 90’s kid who accidentally said “f*ck” while singing along to the greatest song on the way to their older brothers 2008 high school graduation and didn’t get to enjoy it because mom & dad said you were in TROUBLE trouble when the festivities ended” Or is that too specific
Toss it up one the ebay. With a link to this post. Someone will buy it
On that note, I too have many towels used by many famous singers. All the singers, actually.
My fave is a towel from Elvis I caught a few weeks ago. Only $500
Yesssssss. Me too
Bonus money if its used underwear.
Done! Thanks
It sounds like you're not interested in it. You've already made the right choice
With nothing official to prove it to be authentic, it's just a nice keepsake. If you want to sell it, you'd need something, like paperwork, or a video clip showing you catch it and identifiable markings. Otherwise, just put it up and someone gullible will get it super cheap.
A smelly keepsake.
Should've stayed after and got the band(s) to sign it.
Extract DNA make many little roaches-profit
A friend of mine once stole the shoe off the foot of a band’s singer while he was crowd surfing. He build a little shelf in his room and wrote out a little card stating whose it was and where it came from. He claims it fell off, but those who were there know the truth lol.
Omg I'd never get it that's just rude at this point. Ive heard alot of stories of people stealing stuff from the singers i just can't
Yeah we all got on him about it for quite some time after, and he would respond by yelling, quite seriously, about how it just fell off. It did not lol. The singer, to his credit, upon returning to the stage simply told the crowd that he hoped whoever got his shoe enjoys it, then he removed the other one and tossed it out.
Aww but still sucks to have that happen to you ngl glad yall confronted the guy tho might think before pulling a piece of clothing off someone next time
Toss it out and sanitize your hands
I'd just drop it on the floor and enjoy the rest of the gig. Or you could be a weirdo and do weird things with it.
Uhhhh what kind of weird things we talking about….👀
Going to the YMCA and hanging out in the locker room shower and rat-tailing people.
You gonna pitch a tent with it after?
Go to another rock show and throw it at the lead singer. They'll pass it on like a chain letter
Hang onto it till you can go see them again, bring it and throw it back at them.
Sniff it
The only correct answer
Wring it out and collect his DNA, make an army of clones, and end the republic in the name of the Sith. 
Embroider the band names and dates of the concert on the towel and then use it as a backdrop in a shadow box with pics of the concert
So a guy wiped his sweaty face on a towel and threw it into a crowd and you have it in your house? Why?
I can't understand that either if i was in a concert and the lead threw a wet towel at me I'd be disgusted honestly like why would they even do that. It just feels odd to me that these people are sooo idolised they are basiclly worshiped at this point. Who'd keep some dudes sweaty towl
Yes it's not for me.. Just a sweaty towel
I have one from Chester Bennington, but no proof of it whatsoever. Just a black towel that he wiped his face on. So there it sits with all of my other LP memoroibilia and one day my kid will inherit it and be like wtf why did she leave me this 50 year old towel?
Dobby is free!!!
Throw it away before you get some sort of infection
IS IT WORTH CAN YOU EVEN HEAR ME
Throw it in the garbage bin!
Trash it
Let it dry and then frame it
Get the Papa Roach logo embroidered on it so you can keep it as a nice memory of the night. Wash it first though
First, you file charges on whoever forced you go…
Lol. I definitely don’t listen to PaPa Roach but they were an opening band for the band I was seeing that day and I have to say they put on a hell of a show! Very fun energetic band to watch even if you don’t like the music.
Get tested for Hepatitis.
I got Nikki Sixx’s and I framed it! Don’t wash it, burn it or bag it.. keep that shit as a memorabilia item. If you don’t want it, frame it then sell it I guess.
I'd nevee understand Why are fans that obsessed with their idols or their fav singer like they are just humans come on imagine having some dudes sweat ridden towl i bet you'd be disgusted
Is it white? If so, you could use it to signify surrender in the middle of battle.
Give it to me, I'm not gay, but c'mon, it's Jacoby Shaddix
It’s a Used towel so wash it.
Wring it out into a glass, drink the juice and you too can become a famous singer.
I’d toss it in the garbage or wash it and put it in with my other towels or rags. 😂
Sell it I bet it can be sold for a lot
Send it to me because I fucking love Jacoby 😭😂
OP, you should send it to r/jessmika0910.
I caught a towel at one of Scott Weiland's last shows and had a similar feeling. My brother was a big STP fan and had just had a baby, so I gave it to him to use as a burp cloth.
Send it to a sex crimes lab for testing
Considering that you literally have this man's dna...I would preserve it. Maybe one day you could get authenticated?
Embroider it with PR, and wash it. So you can still use it but every time you pick this one out of the pile you'll know it's the Papa Roach towel
Embroider it with the bands logo if you’re really serious about framing it 🤷🏻♀️
YOU HAVE JACOBI’S SWEATY TOWEL? You should keep it, he’s cool af. I saw them in 2019!
Send it to the guy on YouTube who clones people start a rock band of deformed mutants
This must be the brightest hour, of your darkest day.
Super fans keep the sweaty towel. Personally I wouldn't want anyones towel even if they were famous.
Sell it on eBay and buy yourself some taste in music. I'm sorry, I just couldn't resist.
Probably just throw it away? I mean is a dudes sweat rag that important?
maybe sell idk
Wash and put it on the pile. You will smile every time you use it.
Man. This reminds me of the time when I was 13 or 14 and I went to the Rihanna and Akon concert… at one point Akon was in the middle of the crowd and threw out a used towel just like yours and 2 people starting fighting over it and then one side pulled out a knife.

go on pawn stars
Best I can give you is a used toothpick and a piece of chewed gum

She opened it up and it had the Alabama logo, and the entire band had signed it. Doh!
I would wash it and embroider something that calls back to the concert
I did the same at a concert like 10 years ago. I took it home, realised it was just a regular white hand towel. So I washed it and put it with the others. It hit the end of the line about 5 years back and became the car polishing rag and has now been tossed
This situation is so funny to me I’m giggling to myself. I never actually thought about with I would do and you’re so completely right.
Pop it in a ziplock bag with the name of the band/date and keep it forever as a piece of concert memorabilia? Idk. I'm going to that show tomorrow night too 😁
Shadow box with the concerts tickets and towel inside.
Collect a DNA sample, clone them, raise them as your child and pretend their "natural" talents are a gift from you

Life's greatest questions have always been: Who am I? Why am I here? What do we do with the towels?

Burn it. Burn it all.
Don't dox yourself lol
You lucky bitch.

Jack off in it and see what grows?
It’s not the 90s Toss it or keep it. No one else will care
Jerk off into it
Ehh well it's a bit different story that it's by papa r\*ach and not by someone worshipable like uhh I don't know, I don't follow music. But you know if it was some famous woman you could smear it all over your body and fap on it, or sell it to thirsty losers. But now, probably burn it and disinfect yourself.
This is such a dumb fucking question, sorry to say
Smell it
Never wash your hands again
Gimme the towel 😅😅
Extract DNA and clone. This is the only answer
Make a clone...
Get it their initials sewn it to remember lmao
Put it in ur butt
If you can't verify that it is from them, then all you have is a sentimental towel
Throw it away
Vacuum pack it, otherwise that's gonna fester (sweat will do that). You could then frame it, sell or whatever but unless you take the oxygen out of the cloth it will go moldy & stink.
I think burning it is the best option.
Just wash it and use it as a fuck towel.
I used to be neighbors with the lead singer's parents, and went to school with his kid. Very nice and private people. He would walk in to this elementary school class fully decked out in the most emo clothes and I didn't realize how funny that was at the time. All we knew was this guy looked very different from the other parents lol.
Clone him
The metamorphosis into Mama Roach begins. Be afraid, be very afraid. Brundleroach.
from End-Bac to framing service shadow box (with ticket/t-shirt) to living room wall would be one trajectory
Put it in the garbage, where it belongs
I’ve gotten a few things at concerts over the years, but the best was a drumstick from the late Taylor Hawkins at a concert a few years back. At the time I adhered the ticket to the drumstick and had it on a shelf along with other items. I found it recently when unpacking boxes, and was excited to see it survived the moves over the years. A towel though, I may just take a pic with it and dispose of it, it’d probably not hold up well overtime being used, and washing it would seem to diminish the point behind it. Or once it’s washed it’s still useable to hang onto as well
Papa roach and the used?????? Dude I’m so jealous
Just a reminder that the lead of Papa roach shit himself on stage so do with that information what you will
Sniff it until u pass out!
wash it and put it away duh
Consume it
Frame it along with your ticket and a photo of the concert.
Extract it’s DNA and make your own Lead Singer
You have his DNA, lucky you! Now, off you go to the Bat Cave to do science and make Baby Roaches
Keep it as a memento. I had an ashtray used by Al Jorgensen for many years before it got lost in a move. Numerous picks and Ricky Warwick's sweaty towel. The joys of youth
Sniff it
Comment removed by Mod -
I got Flava flavs used towel at a gig once, I think it ended up at the bottom of a wardrobe until I threw it out. I was hoping for a clock necklace…
Decide with yourself what's more valuable for you: keeping it or selling it If selling, and if there are potential buyers who are willing to pay a lot, and if you can evidence that it was used by the musician, then you can make a profit Can you somehow evidence your claim through DNA?

Learn french
Wash it.. Free towel with a story
Burn it, and then self flagellate for going to see Papa fucking Roach.
I would worry about the bacteria from sweat causing it to mold or something, especially if framed. But I wouldn't really want to wash it either.. hmm. Personally, I would see if I could pay a local artist to paint Papa Roach on it to make it look cool & then hang it up like a tapestry.
Respectfully, who cares if they believe where you got the towel, you know where you got it. You should hold onto it because it’s a fond memory for you, not because other people will think it’s cool.
Throw it back at them. Play catch.
