Re: The Emergence of Ticket Collecting
Madden, those are awesome tickets. It's funny though, when you posted their first game was in 1976 and their first win was in 1977, it made me think of two quotes by the legendary John McKay.
During that season I believe he was quoted as saying, "Well, we've determined that we can't win at home and we can't win on the road. What we need is a neutral site." Also, at the end of the season when asked about the execution of his team he answered, "I'm in favor of it."
Also, sandknit that 1919 World Series stub is awesome.
Ousooner, I hope you are getting post season stubs this year for the Thunder.
G1X, is there a favorite stub from all the events you attended?
Great stuff!

Re: The Emergence of Ticket Collecting
What I've also noticed is a ticket collecting is rather popular among player collectors. I collect Chris Herrmann and I have a ticket from all his major accomplishments such as mlb debut, 1st hit, 1st home run among others. It's cool to get them signed and inscribed to me and it's a cheap momento from an accomplishment in their career. That's why I love ticket collecting.

Re: The Emergence of Ticket Collecting
Chris, great thread. Been collecting tickets for about 20 years (full tickets, cut tickets, and signed tickets). My favorite ticket is this Syracuse Orangemen 1960 Cotton Bowl National Championship ticket, because I'm from Syracuse, it was their first and only national championship, and Ernie Davis played in this game. My second favorite is this 1996 Seattle Mariners ticket, because Alex Rodriguez hit his 1st Grand Slam of his career in this game, and I have that bat. I do collect tickets that are from games of my game used memorabilia.
Regards, Tony

Re: The Emergence of Ticket Collecting
I have been collecting tics since I was a kid. Went to almost every home game of the Bucs in 1978.
Here are some of my tics! I have many more, too many to put in an album.
I have tons of duplicates if anyone wants to trade!
My friends I made it in the St. Pete Times. This was Ricky Bell's final game.
