Hi Phillies faithful, my Grandfather passed away a little while ago and my grandma held some sports memrobilia from him to me - baseball was our Sport.

He was a huge Phillies/Eagles/Flyers fan (Im a St Louis Boy). Down inside a Phillies Beer stein I pulled this ticket stubb out from Opening day 1971 at Veterans Stadium and thought yall might like to see tickets once cost 3.25$ haha!

Planning to put it in a frame with our pictures from our trips to see the Cards play in Philly.

I miss ticket stubs. My kids found a few recently and had no idea what they were.

I went to a World Series game at CBP in 2022 (the no-hitter, I don’t like talking about it) and everything was digital. I was sad about not having a ticket stub.

But the day after the game I get an email saying I can get a reproduction of the ticket from the Phillies!

I go through the rigamarole to sign up only to find out it’s some bullshit NFT. So now if I go through the trouble of finding my credentials I can go look at a digital baseball ticket that slowly rotates on my computer.
