Blogathon Game: Collecting Collections

For the latest game on the official Blogathon site, the question is: Do you collect anything? What is it, and why?

I collect movie ticket stubs from movies I have gone to. I suppose it's simply a unique log of my life. A few stubs stick out more than others in my mind:

  • There's the Wayne's World ticket stub I got when I went and didn't see Wayne's World.
  • There are the three Back to the Future movies I have stubs for — I took my mom to see them all because they came out around her birthday.
  • There's the ticket stub for Pay It Forward, the first movie I saw with my then-girlfriend, now-wife.
  • There's the most recent ticket stub I have for Blades of Glory, the not-so-romantic movie from my most recent anniversary getaway with my wife.

Lots of big memories on little pieces of paper.

    I collect my movie ticket stubs as well, but I've found that all the ones I've kept, the ink has faded and I can't really tell what they were from anymore.

    Did you keep the ticket stub of "Wayne's World" movie that you did see? (the one that you talked your Mom into going to?-Oh maybe I kept those.) :)

Go ahead. Comment. It's easier than a barrel full of monkeys.
