What happened to Royce's Gi in UFC1?

[ArmorOfGod]

At the end of UFC 1, Royce Gracie threw his gi top into the audience. What happened to it? Who has it? Where is it now?
It is a piece of MMA history, so I wonder what happened to it.

A tradtional style guy caught it, one of the ones that makes up there own traditions. Anyways, he felt that washing the gi would erase all of Royces wins in it, so he let it sit. The Gi now fights by itself as a lightweight.
