Purported Derek Jeter sex gift basket listed on Craigslist

By Larry Brown

Fans of Derek Jeter may soon be able to have the ultimate collectible. Or they may be paying big money for a total hoax.

A Craigslist poster on Saturday listed for sale what they claim is a Derek Jeter sex basket. The poster claims the basket was given to them by Jeter following a sexual encounter. Recall that in Dec., 2011, the NY Post started a rumor that Jeter gave out gift baskets to women following one-night stands. 

The purported gift basket was listed in the San Francisco section of Craigslist for $1,950. Here is a description of the item:

"It’s common knowledge that women get a basket full of gifts as a thank you for making love to Derek Jeter but I’ve never seen these baskets available as a collectable. I’m ready to part with mine. Derek was giving and generous and I’ve charished this basket for more than a decade. After I removed all the luxury items it’s been used to hold towels and fresh rolls of toilet paper. 

This item is sold as is where is. I don’t have a c.o.a. but can describe every inch of Derek as a way of proof if needed."

Seeing as that this person says they can describe “every inch of Derek” as proof, I think we can take their word for it. What more hard proof do you need than that? Not like we’d have a way to cross reference that anyway to make sure they’re telling the truth, right?

For the record, a few months ago Jeter denied the gift basket after sex rumor anyhow. I’m not sure why. Sending a woman a car home and some autographed memorabilia is actually pretty thoughtful. But his girlfriend Hannah Davis must not enjoy hearing about such things.
