Do you guys collect footy tickets?

[Stomp]

Obviously I keep my tickets and I think depending on the game they can be pretty valuable collectibles. See my signature

:lol: Your sig is awesome!

You're not crazy if you still have the tickets to the Double header in 1999.

104,000, and still in good condition.

I only have the NRL 2001 Grand Final one. Go Newcastle.

Would have been awesome to see 80 thousand + people in the one ground, actually interested in what they are watching.

I've kept my season passes - except 1995 , which I used as a keyring and it got busted.

Interesting to see the 1996 ticket had "Super League."

Was it a show of contempt to the ARL or was it just too late to change it in time for the season?

I have all mine, pride of place is world sevens for the last 2 years...the funnest weekend all year...

Memory is a bit foggy, but the decision was late enough that we weren't "ready" to play in the first round. So they'd probably been made up sometime before that.

S/Ticket holders got a pro-rata cheque back for the missed home game that year.

I have quite a few Raiders ones my Grandad purchased of Ebay for me, so there not memories.
I own a season ticket every season, so no collecting tickets there.
I keep all my Super League play-off tickets, andalso I have tickets fromthe International matches against Australia, New Zealand and Great Britain, and all the World Club Challenge ones since 1999.

Thanks for all the replies guys, far more than I expected.

This thread has really encouraged me to look over my ticket collection. Ah the memories... Of course not all of them are sweet, but that is football.

I'm looking forward to collecting some more exotic ones next season, more away game trips. A ticket from Townsville and maybe one from the game we are gonna have in Perth.

It is a damn shame we don't have more internationals in Australia. Those tickets have pride and place in my collection. But just think of the tickets I will collect come the World Cup 2008. :mrgreen:

It's great to have a physical record of my football adventures and misadventures.

ive tried to, but more often than not ill leave it in my wallet or somewehere and it'll either get lost or destroyed

 

[Nugby]

I tend to keep the occassional one where we've won and I've got a few tickets from concerts I've been to. I've even kept the Dragons v Bunnies from (I think) two seasons back (the score was 18 - 16 or something) which was watched during the second worst hangover of my life, in the bunnies season tickets holders stand. Ugghh. I've already lost my Dragons v Panthers from last week

 

[Special K]

yeah I've got most of mine from test matches to origins to world 7s to double headers to round games. Its not a thought out thing I just stick them in my wallet then just chuck them in my draw.

I was looking through my stuff and found my dragons/sharks semi ticket from 2002 what a game
