"The best evaluation I can make of a player is to look in his eyes and see how scared they are," said the consensus basketball GOAT, Michael Jordan. One reason for Jordan's success is that he didn't let a fear of failure scare him. Presented is a $13.50 ticket to Chicago Stadium on March 3, 1985 to see Jordan play in his rookie season. The game was against the New Jersey Nets, and although the Bulls fell short in the game and lost 117-113, Jordan was spectacular, scoring a game high 37 points on 13-21 shots from the floor and 11 of 12 from the foul line. "His Airness" added 14 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals, and a blocked shot. For the season, Jordan averaged 25.2 PPG and was the NBA Rookie of the Year. In the play-offs, the Bulls were eliminated in the first round by the Milwaukee Bucks, 3-1. But Jordan was just getting started. In the future would be two Three-Peats (three championships in a row). As Jordan said, "Some people want it to happen. Some people wish it would happen. Others make it happen."  The ticket stub measures 2x4.5", and it is for a $13.50 ticket. The ticket stub is graded and encapsulated by PSA as "FR 1.5, Pop 1 - One higher." Jordan did make it happen, and a collector can also make it happen by adding this Jordan rookie ticket stub to any collection.
