Almost threw this in the trash

Looking at all the "extra" stuff that came in beer flats from weekend auction, I look stuff over and if it
doesn't have any real value in the trash can it goes. Small ID holder with nothing but a piece of paper
saying Oakland Raiders almost went but then I pulled it out and couldn't believe what I had.

Friday Nov 8th 1963 KC Chiefs/Oakland Raiders complete ticket, not torn in two so it's not a "stub"
Game at Municipal Stadium, Cost $7, betting it worth 10 times that.

probably still are) long time opponents. Got to be some worth there. I remember back then, when the long-time old rivals would meet, w/ Len Dawson and Ken Stabler (gee, I think I remembered from that long ago!). The Chiefs are a big team in Western MO, as well as in KC of course. STLMO of course lost their RAMS team, but won $740 million dollars in a lawsuit when the owner said that he wouldn't move the RAMs and moved them anyways. STLMO sued and won.

Still trying to figure out what to do w/ the money. I hope that they don't waste it.
