That's the date I've seen, but I would have changed it if I would have thought about it. 1922 would seem more likely.

Oh yeah, I don't mean to imply your design is off. This is also the same date that I've always seen, which makes me believe that it's movie accurate. My question is if anyone knows WHY it's dated 1992? Makes it seem like the old man was just full of $#@%, lol

Its an error by the prop maker.
Yeah, the guy must have been dyslexic. 1992 instead of 1922. Double 9 instead of double 2.

I did some searches and member MisterX said:
I talked to Michael Marcus about that (yes, I found him online right after I bought the ticket to verify it's authenticity. The Prop Store of London had already verified it, but I wanted confirmation for insurance reason. You can also see the attached article on Michael Marcus that he sent me).
He told me it was indeed a typo when it was created (in 1992 even though the movie didn't hit theaters until 1993). All three original tickets had the typo. Since no one was going to be able to SEE the ticket that closely on film - no one thought it would matter.

Makes no sense, but isn't 1922 the screen accurate date for the prop?
3 HERO prop tickets were made for the movie. ALL of them had 1992 instead of 1922. It was a TYPO on the hero tickets. type two "9"s instead of two "2"s. It was a choice on my part to use an accurate date of 1922, instead of intentionally using a typo.
