Bills4life1924 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) 10 tickets to the "Comeback" game. My father was a limo driver and was supposed to drive his boss and 9 others to the game. But a snow storm over night(central ny) they had cancelled. Im just wondering the value if anyone would know before I pay for an appraisal. Not selling yet, just curious after all these years! Thanks!! (Anyone from herkimer/Utica area? Owner of crystal chandelier and herkimer diamond minds Rudy and Renee Scialdo was also the owner of limousine service. My father drove for Rudys group often?) https://ibb.co/HPsqNzT Edited February 16, 2021 by Bills4life1924 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Someday Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 That’s pretty cool. I saw a unused AZ Cardinals 2009 playoff ticket with a patch for sale on eBay for about $85. If you can find a program or something to package it with you might get a decent buck for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked up tickets on Ebay & there were 2 from the comeback game for sale, both used & torn. The one in better condition was asking $99 & the other, not as good was asking $74.95. Both had an additional shipping fee of $2.95. They even used to tear the Super Bowl tickets back then, although they had them perforated and only tore off about an inch or 2 on the bottom of the ticket which was designed to be kept as a souvenir.

Just Jack Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) Most of the sold ones on Ebay went for around $75-$80 bucks, they were used/ripped. But this one was complete and went for $1,000 1993 Buffalo Bills Houston Oilers Wild Card Comeback FULL UNUSED Ticket - RARE!! | eBay So yours should be worth somewhere between $100-$1,000.

HailMary Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Reach out to the Football Hall of Fame. They might be interested in a pair. I recall they have Steve Christie’s shoe as part of a display with other relics from that game. IMO - having the chance to contribute something to the HOF for a Bills display is worth more the $200 bucks. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nextmanup Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I know nothing about valuing sports memorabilia, but my guess is these tickets are worth more to you as a Bills fan as tickets than they would be converted into money. The price just isn't going to be big enough to sell. Though how much is enough to sell is different for everyone. 2 hours ago, blitzboy54 said: My friend and I were in East Aurora hanging out at his house.

aristocrat Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Funny thing is I have my program from the game but my ticket was stolen from me by a kid at school the next day. jokes on him though cause he robbed a liquor store, stole a ladies car who unknowing to him had her baby in the backseat, got chased by the cops until he surrendered, got sentenced to decades in jail but wound up getting aids in prison. all he had to do was not steal that ticket. My ex's father went to Notre Dame and is a fanatic fan. He's been to every game including bowls since like 1980 or something. He has every single complete ticket and program to every single Notre Dame game and for most he has multiples. There are half a dozen games he's the only one in the world with as back in the day they would tear the ticket in half so you have to find someone who didn't go to the game to get the ticket. He's also got a crazy amount of other stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOUSE Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 (edited) If you can find a picture of people making a U turn on the I-90 wrecking the car, you can buy a frame mount the ticket , probably sell for 100 bucks.
