There was an article on Sports Illustrated recently about the "demise" of the paper ticket, thanks to technology, smart phones, etc. It's an interesting read, especially if you're an older CPer or someone, like me, who likes to keep or collect random things like stubs, programs, etc:

The Flames went from nice hardcopy season ticket books to electronic season ticket cards several years ago, but "generic" paper tickets can still be requested (this year they have the 40th Anniversary logo on them). So it got me thinking, does anyone still use paper tickets and/or keep the stubs? And have you kept any notable stubs from previous games you've attended, Flames or otherwise?
I know there are a handful of collectors out there who specifically collect ticket stubs, but I'd be interested to know if there is a particular stub that is meaningful to you, either because of the game, or maybe who you went with (as discussed in the SI article).
For me, I've kept a handful of stubs over the years, most notably from the 2014 and 2018 Grey Cups. I also have a set of stubs from the 2004 playoff run -- purchased from a season ticket holder many, many years ago -- which I've framed.
