[Hank 91]

I had an extra ticket for the 2000 Rose Bowl, one of the least attractive tickets in Rose Bowl history. (The market was perhaps partially depressed because some imagined the world would already have come to an end, or at the very least that the grid would've crashed, making it impossible to play the game.) Anyway, I brought the ticket to the game hoping to sell it, but found little interest. Finally I found someone who was looking to buy it for about $80 (it was $100 face value), but then another person showed up with a ticket to sell and we actually had a reverse bidding war, with each of us lowering our price until the other guy won out. It was possibly the most demeaning experience of my life.
