    The only known ticket remaining in existence from Michael Jordan's North Carolina debut is up for auction.

    Heritage Auctions says the bidding for the 1981 matchup between UNC and Kansas could go for up to $10,000 at auction.

    The verified ticket received a 1 out of 10 grade from PSA because it's been torn and has obvious signs of wear over the years, but it's the only graded ticket available from that game.
