The real owner of O.J. Simpson's 1968 Heisman Trophy has been revealed.
ESPN's Ryan McGee reported Monday night that Tom Kriessman, who bought Simpson's trophy for $255,000 at an auction in 1999, admitted his original story that the trophy was in his possession and in a Philadelphia bank vault was false:
"Tom Kriessman, the Philadelphia sheet-metal wholesaler who purchased that trophy at auction for $255,000, reneged his previous account published as part of an ESPN story on the subject and says the trophy is now in the hands of 53-year-old Rick Reviglio, president and general manager of a successful construction wholesale supplier and one of Reno's highest-profile citizens.
