Well...who could forget the 50th Anniversary of the major league baseball All Star Game? NO BETTER PLACE for it than home in Chicago. 1933, 1950, and now 1983 (of course 2003 too). My best bet is to lock it down in STONE that the next all star game at U.S. Cellular Field (COMISKEY PARK)...will VERY likely be in 2033 to mark the 100th year of the game.
As you can see the collection is fairly wide in the all star year of 83. Again, I am attempting to collect one FULL ticket, uncut, in EACH section of Comiskey Park. The first photo highlights the full tickets I have in the following sections: Auxiliary Box and Upper Deck...of course I have a stub for the lower deck as well. The second picture highlights the white tickets...Full tickets in Standing Room Only, Lower Deck Reserved Grandstand, and of course a stub in that section as well.
The tickets above are fairly unique items...my best guess at least. They are phantom tickets...unused and uncut and do not have seat numbers, aisle, or row information. They look great and present the history of the game in a lower cost price range. I like them!
The above ticket is from the Old Timers Game...what a day that was!!! FUN! I got tons of great autographs at that game and met quite a few former Sox players...of course back then there really was no big issue with actually interacting with players...unlike now they have security for security...thank those fools who rush or jump on the field. (i.e. that father son duo who tackled the first base coach of the royals during a Sox game...i was there...just plain stupid).
Of course during the 83 All Star Game...like everywhere else in baseball...they ripped tickets. No scanning back then friends...the huge 80 pound apple computer did not have skills like that in 83. HA. Essentially, they ripped tickets, and dropped the stubs in a box (at least in the gate I went in). When Old Comiskey closed down...and new Comiskey opened, they sold quite a bit that year at the White Sox garage sale. I managed to get a few stubs but the rest I have found on ebay for the most part. Very unique and rare items all the way through.
