As a die-hard Yankees fan,
I would love to be at Yankee Stadium for the first game of the 2009 World
Series tonight.
But I don't have a ticket.
Nor do I know anyone who
has an extra ticket.
In my case, I would love to
take my family to the game. My daughter is away at school, so that means I need
three tickets. I will even sit in nose-bleed seats; it doesn't really matter.
However slim my chances of
getting World Series tickets, I won't stoop to the low that Susan Finkelstein
dropped down to in her attempt to get tickets.
This die-hard Phillies fan
allegedly offered sexual favors in order to score some tickets.
She posted on
Craigslist--another site to hate for me--and said the following:
"Diehard Phillies fan
— gorgeous tall buxom blonde — in desperate need of two World Series tickets.
Price negotiable — I’m the creative type! Maybe we can help each other!
S."
Well, a cop went undercover
to find out just what she meant. He said he had one ticket, and that he knew
another cop who had a ticket. The curvaceous blonde (well, at least according
to her ad she is) said that if she could get his ticket, she would take care of
him too.
The cop sprung into action,
and arrested Finkelstein for prostitution.
By the way, I have
relatives with the same last name, but this Finkelstein is not one of them.
Anyway, I still want
tickets, but I am not a curvaceous blonde offering any gratuities in exchange
for the tickets.
I just want tickets.
Is saying "Please" enough?
