1982 NBA All-Star Game Mega Ticket, Nets Host – MVP Larry Bird, Celtics ($79.99)

This would appeal more to the older generation of Nets fans, as few Brooklynites would have been around when the 1982 NBA All-Star Game took place. Fun fact: we’re talking about back in the time when the Nets had guys like Otis Songbird, Mike Woodson, and Buck Williams on the roster.

Out of all the items in this post, this is the one that you could say is like “owning a piece of history.” It’s certainly the oldest of the products on this list and one of the most expensive (a bit surprising that it’s not THE most expensive). And “owning a piece of history” is likely the only appeal to a fan to actually purchase this.

It’s funny how the description of the product says “Perfect for autographs.” Who on earth would you get to sign this thing if they didn’t play in the 1982 NBA All-Star Game? Well, I suppose hunting down Larry Bird when the Pacers are in town is always an option. And it’s always possible for you to bump into Buck Williams tomorrow. (Increase your chances by hanging around the Barclays Center on game day).

Anyway, this would be the perfect gift for Nets fans who live in New Jersey and despise Comcast for dropping YES Network.
