(CNN) — When Rachel Carle moved to Boston for college, she received a surprising gift -- a ticket to the New England Aquarium that had been in her great-aunt's wallet for nearly four decades. Issued in 1983, the "late gate" tickets were given out to visitors who arrived too late in the day to enjoy the aquarium but were able to return on another day and make it up. The aquarium stopped issuing the tickets about 25 years ago, but when Carle arrived on June 11, aquarium staff agreed to honor her ticket and allow her entrance. Carle shared a picture of the ticket on her Twitter account and thanked the aquarium for their generosity. The tweet went viral, garnering more than 2,500 likes.More Related News
