Chicago Bulls vs. Denver Nuggets Ticket Stub - March 3, 1998

This is a full-color souvenir-style ticket stub for a regular-season NBA game between the Chicago Bulls and the Denver Nuggets, held at the United Center on Tuesday, March 3, 1998. The ticket features a distinctive 1990s aesthetic with a bright yellow border and heavy gloss finish. The top portion contains seating data (Gate 2, Section 334, Row 11, Seat 11) and the face value of $25.00. The lower graphic contains a prominent image of the Bulls' mascot, Benny the Bull, holding a championship-style banner against a blurred arena crowd. A notable feature is the 'World Champions' text listing the Bulls' five previous title years (1991, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1997), appearing just before their sixth title win in the final season of the Michael Jordan era. The printing quality is high, with gold-toned foil lettering for the 'Chicago Bulls' name at the base. Physically, the cardstock appears well-preserved with sharp corners on the left; however, the right edge shows a rough perforation where it was detached from the main ticket book. There are no visible folds or heavy creasing, though minor surface wear consistent with age is present. This item is particularly significant to collectors as it dates to the 'Last Dance' 1997-98 season.
