Lost for decades, a relic from the Beatles’ last official concert in SF has been unearthed

At auction for $15,000 to $25,000! Does that include a half eaten piece george harrison's bread?

I was supposed to go to that concert!!! My grandfather (my Nonno) lived 4 miles away from Candlestick Park. I BEGGED and pleaded with my parents to let me go visit my Nonno and he could have taken me to the concert....they said NO NO NO...absolutely NOT. I was almost 15 at the time. I barely spoke to them for a long time after that.
AND they forbade me from going to the Monterey Pop festival a year later in spite of our living just a few miles away. Arrrrggghhh.

I feel your pain. I begged my mom to take me to see them in Cleveland in 1966. She said "We'll go next year." She's almost 92 and I've never let her live it down!

I'm sorry you weren't able to see them at Candlestick!
My mom got to see them once in 64 and I remember asking her many years ago why she didn't see them in 66 as well when they had come back to the are and she couldn't remember the reason.
