AUTHENTIC 'GAME USED' "Full" TICKET From The FIRST Game Ever Played At Shea Stadium! Here Are A Pair Of Ticket Stubs That Allowed Admission To
The FIRST New York Mets Home Game EVER Played At Shea Stadium On
April 17th, 1964 vs. The Pittsburgh Pirates.
Both Of These Stubs Are In
REALLY Nice Overall Condition, As
The Posted Photos Will Attest To!
The Two Original Box Seat Tickets That Generated These Stubs Were Printed
Back To Back & Were Used By Two Patrons Who Went To The Game Together & Sat Side By Side.
Being This Was The First Game Hosted @ Shea,
Some Of The Ticket Takers/Ushers Were On The Job For Their FIRST Day. Thus, The
Usher Who "Ripped" These Two Tickets Inadvertently Made A "Happy
Accident" On One Of Them, As Painter Bob Ross Loved To Say!!
In Those Days, Ticket Takers Were Taught To Rip Each Ticket In Half .... Ideally
Along The Dotted Line. After That, Hand The TOP Portion Of The Ticket Back To The Patron. The
Top Portion Of The Ticket (With Mr. Met's Picture) Carried The RAIN CHECK Portion Of The Ticket. The
Rain Check Allowed The Patron To Exchange It For A Ticket For Another Game, Should
This Game Be Rained Out or Cancelled.
Well ..... Whomever Ripped These Tickets Goofed! After Ripping The Ticket
For Seat #1, He Handed The WRONG End Of The Ticket, a.k.a. The "Usher's
Stub" Back To The Patron! Conversely,
The Patron Who Held The Ticket To Seat #2 Received The Correct Stub, a.k.a. The "Rain Check
Stub".
Usher Stubs Are Nearly IMPOSSIBLE To Find For This Game, As 99.99% Of Them Were Collected
At The Gates, Counted At The End Of The Day & Then Trashed. So, The Only Ones Still In
Existence Are Ones That Were Accidentally
Handed To Fans At The Turnstyles.
NOW, What Makes THESE
Two Stubs So AMAZINGLY Awesome Is TWO Reasons: ONE .... The Two Ticket Stubs
Are IN Sequence. They Were Printed Side By Side
For The Same Field Level
Box. They Went To The Game Side By Side & Have Remained Side By
Side For The Last 60 Years! So, They Are SURVIVORS!
The SECOND & Even MORE Amazing Thing About These Two Stubs Is HOW They Were Torn! The
Usher Who Ripped The Seat #1 Ticket JUST Happened To Leave A LITTLE Extra Ticket Below
The Dotted Line.
Its Because Of This Little Extra Amount Paper Left Intact That
I Was Able To Display These Stubs Under Plexiglass As You See Them In The Photos Above.
The END Result Is One Of
The Most UNIQUE Tickets You Will EVER Find For This Historic Game!
Non-Ripped/Full
Tickets To This Game Are VERY Tough To Come By .... & Can Typically Run THOUSANDS
Of Dollars To Acquire When You Do.

Is YOUR Chance To Acquire One Of The Holy Grails Of New York Mets Collectibles! $ 2000
