"I'll Make it"

Dale: “All right, listen up. Listen up! Here’s what we’re gonna do. Jimmy, they’re gonna be expecting you to take the last shot. We’re going to use you as a decoy.
Buddy, you get the ball and get it to Merle on the picket fence. He’s gonna take the last shot. All right, let’s go!” (Nobody reacts.) Dale: “What’s the matter with you guys? What’s the matter with you?” Jimmy: “I’ll make it.” ...was VERY happy to finally find one of these, only 3 are graded by PSA. Inspiration for the movie HOOSIERS. 1954 Indiana HS Basketball State Championship - Milan 32 Muncie 30. LOVE that the original ticket holder who witnessed this game wrote the Final 4 Teams and Scores on the back. |

As a born and breed Hoosier, I grew up listening to stories about this game from people who were there. They all stated the roar after Plump’s shot went in was deafening.

I think a pretty cool collection of ticket stubs would be the 4 big sports and their famous movie.
So..... Hoosiers - Basketball Rudy - for Football Ferris Bueller - Baseball I'd say Slapshot, but since no real game played or modeled after maybe Miracle on Ice - Hockey I could be missing one or two, but can't think of any others offhand. Would not be an easy (or cheap) collection to amass, but not outrageous, not yet anyway. |
....and while I'm sure everyone has seen this:
