Featured is a relic from the famed Maradona "Holy Water" game. The ticket stub offered here is from the June 24, 1990 match between Argentina and Brazil. Argentina defeated the defending champions Brazil 1-0 even though they had struggled through the group stage. Allegations were made that the Brazilian's water bottles were spiked in order to slow them down, hence the "Holy Water" legend that has become associated with this match.The ticket stub offered is in much better condition than the PSA grade of GD 2 that has been awarded. Though, this is the highest grade ever achieved for these stubs, it is colorful and in immaculate condtion and we just can't wrap our heads around the low grade.
