CC: The Phantom Zone

 It's no secret that I'm always trying to find new CC Sabathia items to add to my collection, and the other day I found some new ones.  Baseball is 2020 had its #FakeSeason.  The entirety of the playoffs was illegitimate, and a fraudulent champion was crowned.

That being said, it did create the opportunity for some interesting memorabilia.  This year was the 50th anniversary of the Milwaukee Brewers' first season, and to commemorate the milestone, special tickets for season ticketholders were created.  These tickets contained images of memorable moments from the team's first 50 years.  Among them was the 2008 Wild Card run.

2020 Brewers Season Ticket (4/1/20)

 Some notes about this ticket.  
*First of all, it looks damn good.  The blue and the brighter yellow that the team adopted this year absolutely pop.  
*My eyes kind of bug out at the $140 ticket price.  I don't even know how close this gets you.  Inside the dugout, probably.
*Having a ticket for a phantom game is pretty cool.  Usually these are for playoff games that never happen, but this is the rare year where all of the regular season games were cancelled, at least in their original form.
*There are theoretically dozens of different ticket dates, but I'll be stopping at this one.  Good enough.  It would be hard knowing where to draw the line.

  1. Whoa. $140? I better get to sit next to Keston for that price. Cool ticket though.
