The information about the seat, row, and section do fit the stadium layout. It just strikes me odd as to being written verses printed. JMHO.
However, it is headed my way now.
Update: The person that sold me this ticket had a friend that went to RFK in the early 70s for Redskins and Senators games. So, a fair chance the ticket writing is period. SCORE!!

They actually sold tickets like this back in the day. it was before computers so if you bought from a ticket agent (outside of the organisation) they would write them out. They probably had a block of setas they sold or had to conirm the seats were available and then just wrote them out. The biggest problem is that I doubt anyone would slab them as they could be manipulated.
