And I know exactly why! 
One of my close friends attended Willie's 3,000th hit game.
The SF Giants offered to give every fan that attended the game a FREE ticket to any upcoming game... in exchange for their ticket to the game!
The Giants proceeded to throw all of these tickets away. 
The lure of getting something for free proved to be too much to resist for virtually all of the fans. Thus explains the scarcity of Willie's 3,000th hit tickets.
That being said, over $6,000 for this ticket with condition issue is cray cray!!  |
My buddy was also there….he, of course, opted for the exchange.
