TICKET STUB FOR YANKEES/TWINS GAME 3

[Archive]

Posted By: Jay Miller 

I collect tickets from games Roger Clemens pitches in. If any of you are going to Game 3 in Minneapolis I would love to trade for/purchase your ticket stub(hopefully not ticketmaster). I have a stub to Game 1 in NY, etc.

Thanks--Jay

Hi Jay,

It looks like there is a very good chance I will be at game 3. Drop me an email.

Watching the twinkies, or 10 t206's in poor/fair condition. This is a no-brainer! ...unless you have a free ticket

He doesn't go there for the game. He goes there to check out all the sexy hot dog and beer vendors.

When Clemens was with the Red Sox my goal was to watch him pitch in each American League park. However, once he became a Blue Jay that stopped for me. Jay - If you have any extra stubs you want to trade or sell to any 10+ K game with the Red Sox, I would be interested.

only Astros and Rangers, but I saw him any time I had the chance. As luck would have it, he was on the road almost every time he hit a milestone, but he did toss one no-hitter while I lived in Arlington. I have the stub to prove it, but since then I have met approximately 3 million other people who were also at that game.

I have an interesting Red Sox ticket stub - I was at the game where Jose Canseco pitched for the Rangers at Fenway.

Lee, if you go to the game, make sure you afterward get the ticket graded by PSA to make sure it's real. And pray oh pray that you get a Mint 10.

Jay:

I'm glad you'll at least get the ticket. It'll be for the last game the Yankees play this year, if they play like they played today.

That'll give the A's a freeway route right through Boston and into the World Series.

I was thinking of putting some hotdog mustard on the stub to authenticate it, how could it not be real and a "10" with a little mustard. Jay,When Lohse pitches his no hitter against Clemens and the Yanks, the price goes up.

Game 1 to the Twins and we even pitched Rick Reed!!!!!!

The use of UV light and a IR viewer can be used to quickly weed out fake mustards, and chromatography can be used to determine how long the mustard has been on the ticket. However, a sample of the mustard must be removed and destroyed for the later test-- how much depending if the chemist is about the make a sandwhich.

Off topic, there was a Texas county coroner who kept his sandwhiches and condiments in the same refrigerator that the bodies were stored. He also once lost the head to one of the bodies, had no idea where it went.

They made head cheese from human heads in "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" (pronounced "Mass-a-cree"), so depending where in Texas this guy was coroning....

but I'm an "anti-Yankee", so I guess it's okay. On the other hand, I would LOVE to see the Red Sox beat the Yanks to get to the World Series...maybe destroying Roger Clemens in Game 7

Clemens did not exactly behave well in his last Fenway Park appearance - the fans were screaming for him and he had to basically be shoved out of the dug-out by some of the Yankees after he exited the game. Real lack of class, but all the fans saw was that he eventually showed himself. Better than Ted Williams, but not by much.

Face it, Scott. The Hankron record for conscutive posts wasn't made to be broken. Even those who have tried have hit the wall and started having halucinations by post four.

My one and only Fenway Park visit was in 1987 and Roger Clemens was pitching. I really enjoyed soaking in the atmosphere of the old ballpark, and wasn't closely scrutinizing the game. Someone told me later, which completely escaped me at the time, that I had witnessed a complete game by Clemens with NO strikeouts.

Any of you Clemens fans out there know if such a game exists, or was I led astray by some mean-spirited joker of a friend? Are there any other times when he had a complete game with no strikeouts? And wasn't 1987 also the year he had 20 strikeouts in a game?

(By the way, I don't have the ticket stub)

Brian - I remember listening to that game on the radio. It was against the Angels. 1986 was the year Clemens struck out 20. In 87 he held out, struggled early in the season and than pitched really well after the all-star break.

As you all probably know by now, Roger was great and the Twins couldn't get going, nothing to cheer about, took the crowd right out of the game. The fate of the year rests on Johan.

I was able to get 4 ticket stubs, Jay is getting 2 and I am going to get greedy and see how much I can get for Clemens last win for the other 2 on ebay.

Any bids as to how much I will get if any for the stubs. i will start it at .99 with $2.00 S/H.
I am always amazed at what and how much Yankee fans pay for stuff.

Ironically, the ticket would likely be worth more, if Clemens pitched poorly and it turned out to be his last game.

I guess I should have started looking in the garabage for more stubs. I listed my game 3 ALDS game stub last night, already more than I expected to get.

Here's your chance to own a part of history.
