It's not a ticket but I love this envelope with the Army Navy graphic and especially since the postmark is the USS Arizona.

Great looking First Day Issue, from an incredible battleship.
I love that you can see the score from the game in the stamp mark. Here is the ticket and program from that particular game:
In a sadder connection between the Arizona and the Army-Navy game: The 1941 Army Navy game day program featured an article on the "Future of the US Navy" that highlighted the USS Arizona.
The game was played on 29 November 1941. One week later, Pearl Harbor was attacked and the USS Arizona was turned into a tomb for 1,177 brave men.
