Vieux talons de billets


Quelqu’un récupère-t-il/conserve-t-il ses talons de billets de jeux ? Des anciens se souviennent-ils des sections rouges et bleues et de la section supérieure bleue (alias saignement de nez ou verte) du Pacific Coliseum ?

    Based off the first inflation calculator I can find on Google, that $8 in 1977 is worth $36.02 (or, the price of two tallboys at Rogers Arena).

    Moving away from the original stick in rink logo to the “modern” version continues to be one of the biggest mistakes the team has made with their uniforms.

    You could say the same about the new skate logo, although the changes there are a little more minor.

    Wow! Nice find… reminds me of the old bus transfers that the driver used to rip to show the expiry time.

    I keep mine, and up until last season (haven’t asked yet for next year) we were able to get physical copies from the team instead of having to use the cell phone system for entry. They keep threatening to cut us off from that, but we counter with « one of the members doesn’t own a cell phone » (true), and since there’s such a turnover in season ticket holder reps there’s no institutional memory to recall, « We said last season was the final year and we meant it! »

    The latest ones aren’t much more complicated than those old ones. Date/match-up/location, bar code, legal disclaimer on reverse. There’s a tear-away section, but the gate folks don’t use that (and usually tell us some variant of, « Oh wow, old-time tickets! ») Doesn’t even have some indication of cost, which they used to do even with season tickets to give owners some indication of what the premium games were.

    I miss the pre-phone tickets, where they had things like player pictures on them. I just pulled a random one from the pile I keep them in – Nov. 10, 2019, Canucks vs. Devils, first home Hughes vs. Hughes game (I snipe all the interesting tickets for my share). Big picture of Bo on most of the ticket, name of the season ticket holder on the ticket, and an estimate of cost (was a premium ticket, so $155 – our seats are in the 10 K range per season today).

    Another from further into the pile – Nov. 21, 1998, Canucks vs. Red Wings (defending Stanley Cup champs). Stylized player picture on most of the ticket, the season motto « New Grit » at the top, $66.88. I see you have yours in a proper plastic cover/binder situation. Have you ever seen plastic covers like that which could hold long tickets, and not just stubs?
