I've met WWII veterans, and met people who met WWI veterans, but I've never met anyone who went to Woodstock, which makes it ancient history in my book.
My high school freshman year English teacher went to Woodstock. Supposedly he has (or had back in 2005) the ticket he bought for it sitting in a safe deposit box. As I recall, he said he’d be willing to sell it for $100k.
