Looks like you can enter a drawing for 2 free tickets to the show. Any idea where it is going to be held? CenturyLink, Ralston?

I had won tickets for this last year but was unable to make it.
The show is airing on PBS right now.

Hansen: His 1950s Yankees jerseys are worth $130,000, but he just wants to talk baseball
This is how Gary Stickney ended up on your television Monday night, if your television was tuned to PBS’ “Antiques Roadshow.” His face is covered with pancake makeup. He’s nervous as all get out.
He hears an appraiser on the show tell him that the first shirt is an authentic, game-worn Whitey Ford shirt. Whitey Ford was one of the best left-handed pitchers of his era. He won 236 games for the New York Yankees. He’s in the Hall of Fame. Ford wore this jersey in 1955, the year that he won two games in the World Series — and also the year that the Dodgers felled the mighty Yankees after Jackie Robinson famously stole home.
The insurance value of this shirt: $30,000.
Lana is watching from the green room. When the appraiser says “$30,000,” she screams.
Next up is the Yogi Berra jersey. This one is also authentic and game-worn, the appraiser tells Gary.
And Yogi Berra is of course one of the most iconic Yankees, a beloved catcher who won three MVP awards and a staggering 13 World Series titles as a player and then a manager. Yogi is also in the Hall of Fame. He wore this jersey in 1951, the year he won his first MVP.
The insurance value of the Berra jersey: $100,000.
