1987 MIAMI DOLPHINS VS NEW YORK GIANTS FULL TICKET

Another nice collectible that has been hiding in one of my collection boxes for years. You are bidding on one (1) unused 1987 Miami Dolphins Vs. New York Giants Full Ticket. This is a nice full ticket or the Sunday, September 27, 1987 Miami Dolphins Vs. New York Giants game, which was week 3 of the 1987 NFL season. This game was not played so this is what is often referred to as a phantom ticket.

In 1987, a 24-day players' strike reduced the 16-game NFL season to 15. Games that were scheduled for the third week of the season were canceled and games for weeks 4-6 were played with replacement players. 85% of the veteran players did not cross picket lines during the strike and the teams put on the field by NFL clubs bared little resemblance to those of previous seasons. Fans tagged the replacement player teams with mock names like "San Francisco Phoney Niners", "New Orleans Saint Elsewheres" and "Seattle Sea-scabs." Faced with cracks in union support, the willingness of the networks to broadcast the games and hostile public sentiment the union voted to go back to work on October 15, 1987--without a collective bargaining agreement – the owners had (shortly) won.
