You are welcome. Once the hook is set on ticket collecting you will want to try and get them all. LOL I started collecting in 1998 innocently enough. McGwire looked like he was gonna hit 60+ homeruns so I decided to buy up tickets near the end of the year so I'd have the game he broke the record. then he went on a tear and I had to buy all of September to be safe. So I was happy I had #62 and #70. But i had some others too so I decided to get #60-70. I did that and then I decided to get the whole season. Then I tried to get full tickets only. Pretty tough since they tore them back then. Once I was almost finished I decided to get all his homeruns. Its the thrill of the chase! Now I have about a dozen different themes I am chasing.
All McGwire HRs All Thome HRs All Dunn HRs (thought he would make it to 500 but he quit on me!) All Harper HRs All Trout HRs All Henderson 1982 stolen bases All McLain 1968 wins All Carlton 1972 Wins All Story HRs from this year (rookie record?) All Randy Johnson 15 Ks or higher 500th HRs 300th wins 3000th Ks 4 HR games 3 HR games Perfect Games 500 HR Club milestones (1st, 100th, etc) 2002 A's 20 game win streak Immaculate Innings (9 pitches 3 Ks) Last K of a 300+ K season
