    I have a crap ton of obscure sports cards. I will venture downstairs tomorrow and get some pictures.

    Best memorabilia I have is two things:

    Wrigley Field seats that were taken out after World Series this year.

    My 2016 Cubs playoff tickets unripped (sent them to myself via email to keep them intact just in case), so I have all 3 World Series games framed and attached to each other. I figure there are probably less than a 1,000 actual game tickets that exist like this in the world and probably way less, since most people ripped the tickets apart and used them.

    Season tickets run about $5,000, playoffs were like $1,200.

    Edit: Realize you probably meant the physical seats $1400 for two, which included the LTL freight shipping.

    never big on autographs, but right before the mlb season started in 2004, the year the Sox won their first WS, I got to meet Keith Foulke's hot hawaiian wife (& new baby) when she came into the place I worked at. We ended up doing some work for them, and a few of us got some souvenirs for our efforts. That year, Keith's family life pretty much fell apart, and his tour in Boston didn't last much longer, but that motherfucker was God through the ALCS, then the WS. I smile every time I see this goddamn ball.

    Sox fans had a right to be pissed. Fucking $100 a seat, $75 to park and $8 a beer nobody from fucking Burger King can afford to go to a game.

    I bet more of those exist than you think. In this day and age you don't have to use the stubs or paper. Most people use their apps. I know of at least 10 sets of these just between my buddies and I. I personally have 2 of these from my season tickets.

    It's hilarious that we as a society think everyone can be a dr, a lawyer, an engineer. Some people are just fucking stupid. Why can't we just accept that?

    I would agree if some things didn't make the Cubs unique.

    Average season ticket holder is older than most other teams since the waitlist runs 10-15 years.
    Huge amount of corporate owned seats at Wrigley.
    You couldn't use the app to enter Wrigley until this year (2017).

    @Grenada, very nice #50 if graded high can see $$$$ and $$$ minimum for low grade.

    Nice to have a story with it, good neighborhood liquor store memory from your childhood.
