    Very cool ticket. I've been buying Kentucky derby tickets from years that there were triple crown winners. I also like to send tickets to events that I have gone to get slabbed. I think the tickets look awesome slabbed. Does anyone know if they would slab transportation tickets... Ie an Amtrak ticket. I went to times square for new years eve and still have the ticket from my home town to penn station from dec 31 1999 and a return ticket jan 1 2000. I'd like to get them slabbed an display them together. I could go the green label rout but prefer red.

    Congratulations Jeff!

    Nice piece of Tiger history - in a super year! I'm sure most know of the '68 WS and the outcome.

    I have a few WS ticket stubs - got them in a pile of old programs - so don't collect - as such.

    Can't wait to get #1 slabbed so I can from these three together. Obviously these represent the beginning of a great career and a storied ending for my favorite player.

    This now resides in a PSA slab, but here is a signed Orioles No-Hitter ticket from 1991, where four pitchers contributed to no-hit the A's

    I was too young to even contemplate being able to go, but seeing the ticket brings back fond memories of watching the game.

    Thank you so much for sharing everyone! I can't wait to see what else will come up! The Frank Thomas stuff is AMAZING! He is my all time favorite modern player, so thanks for sharing that! I'd love to hear more about your Frank Thomas collection. I have a HUGE collection of his cards. Not graded, but still amazing.

    Very nice Colavito ticket. Enjoy.

    I don't have too many tickets, but this one I will send in to PSA to slab one day. I was at the game, behind first base, when the ball went between his legs. What a great memory!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
