The Curse of Game Seven for the Red Sox

When the Boston Red Sox sold Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees in 1920, the Yankees, in short order, became a dynasty while the previously successful Red Sox fortunes sank. Since the last Red Sox championship in 1918 (before they won it all in 2004), they had been to 4 World Series: 1946, 1967, 1975, and 1986. They lost them all in Game Seven. Here are the Game Seven ticket stubs to all of those heartbreaking losses. There must be at least a handful of people who went to all four of these games.
