Good Ol' Grateful Dead ! - U of O ! - Eugene ! ... and even Windsurfing Skeleton !!! Fans too !! Offered here is the Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) Grateful Dead Backstage Pass ( sticker-patch / satin ) for the Autzen Stadium ( Home of the University of Oregon Mighty Ducks ! ) Show on June 17th, 1994 ( 6/17/94 ) !! Wow ... Dead Fans !!! This was a day of days ! - and a 3-show run of 3-show runs ! ... and where ? You betcha ... the University of Oregon's Proud ! & Loud !! ' Mighty ' Autzen Stadium ( Built in '67 ! ). This Absolute-Beauty ! of a G.D. Pass was designed by Tony Reonegro ! - and features a Windsurfing Skeleton !! " running like a Surfer ! ... running on a Tidal-Wave ! ". Hat - Sunglasses - some Seriously-Rad Surf ! - a Lightning-Bolt ! on the gear ! - and even what looks to be a pretty friendly ? Shark down-below ? - Sure ! ... but no need to worry - never fear ! ... as there's a " Peace Sign " here - right-on the bottom of the Surf Board ! Hey Now !! - as it is Eugene !!! ... after all. Just about as Bright & Colorful as it gets ... all-across the board ! A way-cool design - for a very-cool & Historic ! event ... the Grateful Dead's 2nd " Triumphant " Return ! in 1994 to play the University of Oregon's Mighty ! Autzen Stadium in Eugene !!! This 6/17 Show was the 1st of a 3-Show stand in Eugene ! - and yes ... it took place in the " Oregon Rainshine !!! ". Because as rumor does have it ... " It Never-Rains In Autzen Stadium ! ". And ... I was so-fortunate to be right in the Front Row !!! ( just like Bob Uecker - right ? - Ha ! ) ... and right in front of Garcia !!! Bobby was even sporting some pretty smooth Green Patagonia ! on this day - see - I remember !! This was only the 2nd run of Shows that the Grateful Dead played at the U of O ( or anywhere in Oregon ) since the 1990 Summer Tour. The thing was ... they were faced with a " Ban " by the U of O for troubles with fan behavior, etc. - until Jerry Garcia Himself ! took care of it - all on his own ... and even by sheer coincidence even ?!? Or maybe ... " Fate !!!". Ha !! As he actually ' ran-into ' Dan Williams ( U of O President - at the time ) in Hawaii where Dan was vacationing - and so was Garcia - as he was Scuba-Diving !! Dan saw him - and Dan's Wife ! thought it would be cool for Dan to introduce himself - and ask for a photo with Jerry ! Jerry obliged - naturally, with one small stipulation ... " Why don't you let us come back to play in Eugene - because we love playing there ?! ".And... Well Folks ! - that was-indeed all she wrote ... as 8/21/93 & 8/22/93 - and then 6/17/94, 6/18/94, and 6/19/94 became " Reality ! " due to this most ' Random ' meeting ... and the rest was all G.D. / Duck U. History !!! " Duck U'r Face !!!!! ". How-Awesome ... & How " Historic !!! ". So yeah ... Enjoy !!! this fine-piece of G.D. ! - Oregon ! - U of O ! - Eugene ! - Rock 'n Roll History !!!!!

The ' Opening-Show ' Ticket ! for the Triumphant ! 1994 ' Last & Final ' Stand of The Grateful Dead ! in Eugene !! at the University of Oregon's Mighty Autzen Stadium !!! - the Very-Proud ! Home of the Oregon Fighting Ducks !!!!!
Grateful Dead Fans ! & " Dead-icated " Grateful Ducks !! Everywhere !!! Offered here is a Rare & Incredibly-Awesome ! Vintage - Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) Grateful Dead Ticket ! for the Grateful Dead / Oregon Ducks Fan !!! I know I've met quite a few of these Fans in my days ... but, oh-wait ?! That's right ... I am one ! I guess the only question is then ... which do I like better ? Ahhh ... Oh-No ! & No-Way !! as I could never-ever go there ... I mean after all Fans - '94 is a year where not only ! did the Grateful Dead deliver 3 Summer Tour Shows !! in Mighty Autzen Stadium ... but Kenny Wheaton also delivered " The Pick " !!! '94 Forever ! ... I say ! So yes indeed Fans ... as offered here is the 6/17/94 " Opening-Show " Ticket for the Glorious ! 3-Show G.D. stand ... at Mighty Autzen ! The Band played their Last & Final U of O and Eugene stand on June 17th, 18th & 19th, 1994 ... and this Ticket is from the 1st Show ! Well-known to many Fans who were there as " The Rain Show ! ". And yes, even though as we already know that " It Never Rains In Autzen Stadium " - well... on this " Eugene-Dead-Day " it must have been an anomaly - as it rained Good ! ... or " Grate ! " - and the Band gladly reflected it in the Set list ! Ha ! ... Bertha ! - Rain ! - Samba In the Rain ! And
... as for the " Importance " of these Eugene Shows ? Whoa !?! As I don't really even really know where to start ?? Well ... let's just put it this way 1st - this is the " Last & Final " Grateful Dead run of Shows at both ! the University of Oregon !! - and in Eugene !!! In yes, the land of Ken Kesey & Friends - who even taught a Creative Writing Class at ! the U of O - just shortly before this time. In fact, these were almost ! the very-last Grateful Dead Shows in the entire Grate-State ! of Oregon - if it wasn't for a 2-Show run in Portland at Portland Meadows in May of 1995. So ... in effect - this was truly the Grateful Dead's ' unofficial ' Goodbye ! to both !! the U of O ! & Eugene !! But, because of the way things ended up working out ... not a single Band Member - G.D. Family Member - or Dead Fan ! ever knew it at the actual time - in June of '94. So Yes !!! Arguably the very-best way to say ' Goodbye-Forever ' indeed ... when nobody even knows it at the time - and the focus can just be Grate-Times ! - Rock & Roll !! - even some ... Sunshine ! in Mighty Autzen Stadium !! - and of course, naturally ... some Good Ol' Grateful Dead !!! 3-Shows worth ! - and 3 Solid !! Shows worth, at that. I saw all-three myself & sat right in the front row for ' This-One ! ' - 6/17/94 - ( right in between Garcia ! & Weir ! ) - and, to this day it is still ! quite hard to pick a ' Favorite '. And ... it is also very-important to note that the Grateful Dead were actually ' Banned ' from playing the University of Oregon Autzen Stadium - right after the 1990 Shows they played. And ' Why ? ' you might ask ? Well, you know ... numerous troubles with fan behavior, etc. - etc. - etc. ... blah - blah - blah ... - until >>> ( Hah !!! ) >>> Jerry Garcia Himself ! took care of this little ( Big ! ) problem all on his very-own ... and almost by simply & so-fortunate coincidence ! Just a Simple Twist Of Fate ! - if I may. Like when all of the Planets & Stars align - sort of like during a Smoldering Drums > Space !! Ha ! So yes indeed ... Jerry ran into Dan Williams ( U of President, at the time ) in Hawaii where Dan was vacationing - and so was Garcia ... as he was Scuba-Diving ! ( I mean what are the chances of this ?!? - Truly-Amazing !!! ). Then Dan spotted him down there - and Dan's Wife thought it would be pretty-cool to introduce himself to Jerry - and ask for a photo of them together. So, Dan asked Jerry & Jerry obliged - naturally, but - with only one very small stipulation ... " Why don't you let us come back to play in Eugene - because we really love playing there ?! ". Well Folks, that was indeed all she wrote & Dan Williams Delivered ! on his handshake-promise to Garcia !!! - as 8/21/1993 & 8/22/1993 were officially-booked just shortly thereafter - and then the rest was all G.D. / Duck U. History ! in August 1993 !! And, then-again Amazingly ! ... a Last & Final 3-night stand at " Mighty Autzen ! " on the 1994 Summer Tour !! was allowed - yet once again !!! Five ( 5 ) !!!!! More 1993 / 1994 Grateful Dead Shows at the U of O !!! Duck U'r Face !!!!! Enjoy this very-fine piece of Grateful Dead ! - Oregon ! - U of O - ! and Eugene ! Rock 'n Roll History !! Memorabilia !!! Indeed " The-Last-Time! " for the Good Ol' Grateful Dead ... in Eugene ! The Finest ! of G.D. & U of O Memories !! to Forever~Savor !!! ... Enjoy !!!!!
