Description

Original full unused 4.25 x 1.5 ticket for general admission to the infamous Sex Pistols show at the Longhorn Ballroom in Dallas, Texas, on January 10, 1978. In fine condition. During the show, Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicious were both punched in the face by female fans. The Evening News reported that Vicious suffered a bloody nose from the blow, and he proceeded to rub 'blood over his face and chest so that he looked like a demented cannibal.' Dallas police were braced with SWAT teams on site in case of a riot, but they fortunately did not have to be put into action.
