Other than being able to cash them and receive actual money, how could those possibly be worth anything?

Who hits the Derby and doesn't cash their ticket anyway?

I have this signed by pretty much anybody that was anybody in horse racing back in the late 70s. Would love to know what it's worth but don't want to find out since it was grand father's retirement present.

I also have a $2 win ticket on Zenyatta in the Classic at Churchill. I bought it as a souvenir. Turns out it isn't even worth $2. Damn you Blame. Trevor Denman hates you.

My dad would buy a two dollar ticket just to keep along with his regular bet. The oldest I've found is a 1978 affirmed.

Put it on eBay. Some dumb@$$ will buy it.
They would have to pay a lot. If you want a poster of it I saw it for $75. This is a lithograph and I don't know what the signatures make it worth but he was an outrider for NYRA so all of the big boys signed it.

eBay will give you some idea of what they're worth. Just start typing in some horse's names along with "ticket" and see what pops up.

I bought a bunch of Pharoah $2 win tickets at Belmont. Gave most of them away but kept a couple and framed one along with some photographs. They go from $10-20.

I would give you $20 for one of those tickets.

Glenn, referring to jockeys as "big boys" is a type of bullying that crosses the line. I expected better from you.

^^Appreciate the offer but I'm hanging on to them. Ebay has an abundance of them. I read after the race that somewhere in the neighborhood of 90,000 $2 win tickets went uncashed that day.
