Grandpa selling stubs from every single Barry Bonds game on eBay

Friday, April 16th, 2010

Oh, old guys and the crazy business ventures as retirees.

Meet Grandpa Woody. He’s collected 2,500+ ticket stubs from Major League games played in by Barry Bonds. And he’ll sell you the whole lot – for the Buy It Now price of $75,000.



No surprise, the ultimate goal is to collect stubs from all 3,047 games of Barry’s MLB career (including post season and All-Star appearances). His listing also includes the 514 stubs he needs to complete the collection.

I’d love to know how many stubs Woody, a Santa Cruz-native, procured the old fashioned way – by going to the ballpark. I’m no Peter Falk, but If he’s seen even a third of Barry’s games, we could be talking about a reliable source in the Bonds investigation. (I’m clearly no Columbo.)

Woody is also working parallel paths and collecting every ticket for Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain’s games. He’s going to come after me for calling him a retiree with a crazy business venture, isn’t he?
