David, imagine the history that the person saw when he/she was sitting in the stands clutching YOUR ticket. Badass.

Hi Graig,
Unfortunately, I flew back home this morning.
I had a great time watching all of the drama of a huge live sports auction, up close and personal, for the very 1st time. It's always been on my personal bucket list.
One huge side benefit was being able to see Johnny Vander Meer's personal last out balls from his 1st and 2nd consecutive no-hitters in 1938.
Overall, the items offered in this auction were truly amazing as were some of the prices realized.
Many thanks to net54's Peter Fishman and his NY crew of collectors that allowed me to hang with them last night. I also really enjoyed meeting Forbes contributor David Seideman and friends, discussing Mets baseball on Thursday. Good times!
Very cool!
