Ticket stub to the 1982 NCAA Men's Basketball Finals. The 1982 title game is memorable for the heroics of North Carolina freshman Michael Jordan, who against Georgetown made the most important shot of his young career. Jordan nailed a short jumper with seventeen seconds left to give North Carolina a one-point lead that it never relinquished. The victory was especially sweet for coach Dean Smith, who earned his first NCAA Championship after twenty years as head coach of the Tar Heels. Graded VG 3 by PSA. The ticket (4-1/8 x 2 inches) displays light creasing and minor corner and edge wear. Reserve $200.
