Beatles Original Candlestick Park 8/29/66 Full Ticket (Last Beatles Performance In USA ) SGC Auth
The 1966 tour was grueling for The Beatles. The final stop for the tour was San Francisco's Candlestick Park, on August 29, 1966. The Beatles performed the following songs on that cold night: "Rock and Roll Music", "She's A Woman", "If I Needed Someone", "Day Tripper", "Baby's In Black", "I Feel Fine", "Yesterday", "I Wanna Be Your Man", "Nowhere Man", "Paperback Writer", and "Long Tall Sally." After they finished playing, they took one last bow, and were whisked away in an armored car, which had been standing by throughout the concert. Little did anyone suspect they had just witnessed an end of an era! Our offering here is a beauty of an actual unused ticket from that historic night. The ticket is not the more common "green bar" ticket. It is, in fact, the rarer "red bar" issued to the lower level at Candlestick and in Near Mint condition.SGC Auth Authentication SGC .
