@AlliFlowers Oh no, it's a real question. Sorry.

Basically, my (non-Jewish) uncle said "hey, you're Jewish, here's a horn" and I am just left with it now and it is taking up space for no reason and irritating me.

I have no clue how my uncle happened upon a shofar. He collects all sorts of junk he finds on the side of the street and stuff.

@kolev That’s unusual. I don’t know anyone who’s ever gotten rid of one. Usually they stay in the family forever.

@AlliFlowers But it doesn't even have sentimental value for me. It's just taking up space. The congregation already has a good greater kudu shofar; we don't need another one.

@kolev I’d double check with a rabbi, but it’s not like a siddur, so you should be able to dispose of it in any manner that’s convenient.

@AlliFlowers I'm scared my rabbi will insist I keep it, but I'll ask.
