I read some contemporary game accounts in the NYT archives and it mentioned that there wasn't a seat to be had. I am assuming that the game hadn't started yet when the photo was taken, based on the short shadows; you can see people still walking in.
David- here is my best partner to the photo! Maybe one of those folks is holding this ticket as an extra?
