That also makes it the second-highest price ever paid for a video game cartridge, just behind the $43,300 paid for a factory-sealed copy of Stadium Events for the Nintendo back in February.

I was watching the stadium events auction.

Could you imagine if this guy with the atari game left it sealed (if it even came with a seal)?

lol, same thing that happened after the boxed copy of stadium events sold for $13,500. Everybody looks through their collection to see if they have it, and lists it if they do.
