Took my Dad to the Dr. today and saw something interesting hanging on the wall.

I saw this hanging on the wall about eye level. Unused 2004 World Series ticket, Game 2 (Schilling's bloody sock game) with matching commemerative pin. It was in absolutely beautiful condition. Pardon the crappy pic as I took it with my cell phone.

This was just a regular examination room at a small local clinic. They see alot traffic in and out of this clinic so I am absolutely shocked to see that someone hasn't made off with it. I wonder how much this would go for on eBay?

    By the way, these were lodge seats. The face value on the ticket was a whopping $190!

    Awesome stuff. I love unused/stub tickets like that on display...

    How do you know it's unused? Maybe they requested it not be torn by the ticket guy. Or maybe it was a one time scan ticket.

    Tickets were scanned at Fenway, not torn. All of them should look like that--mine does! image

    It seems like you would have to go to the game to get the pin.

    Did you ask him why he hans't had the ticket slabbed yet?

    << <i>Wasn't "THE" bloody sock from game 6 of the ALCS? >>



    There were two "bloody sock" games. This was the second one and it's this sock that was eventually put in the hall of fame.

    Yeah, I guess the term unused is incorrect since the tickets are scanned now and not torn. "Untorn" would be a better term.

    I'm not sure who this ticket belongs too to even ask. There are several doctors at this clinic and this was hung in one of the common-area examination rooms. Nobody could see me as they leave patients alone in the room while waiting for the doctor. I could have easily made off with it if I had wanted too. An item like this should definitely not be left alone like this.

    He is probably just ignorant to the true value.
    And probably has no knowledge that grading even exists.
