Not everybody gets to go to a WS game. And the opening game infers to me a higher level of interest than most other games. So, I'd say that a few percent were held onto as momentos.

But that was almost 100 years ago. And with the top drawer in a dresser being cleaned out at least every 30 years, that would be 3+ cleanings by different generations of people. And figuring that those typically in charge of cleaning duties are not commonly also sports fans, the attrition factor for even a meaningful stub is high because meaningful is in the eye of the beholder.

So, that works out to be 30,511 attendees x 3% tickets saved x 3 cleanings each presenting a 5% survival liklihood = your stub does not exist. (0.1 stubs exist)

So I guess that the cleaners were less efficient than I thought, or one heard of the Blacksox.
