World Series tickets? Nope...just wasted paper

Well the Tribe has done it. Wasted a 3-1 lead in the American League Championship Series. After their complete collapse in games 5 & 6, they pretty much rolled over and died after about 6 innings last night in game 7.

It sucks that they lost, but it sucks even more that Stephanie and I had managed to get tickets to the World Series if Cleveland had made it. Stephanie had signed up for the ticket lottery and was selected. I sat at work this past Wednesday frantically trying to get whatever tickets were left by the time Ticketmaster opened up sales to the public (who had gotten a code from the Indians...or who had bought one of these codes on eBay for $175+).

Games 1 & 2 were completely sold out, but I was able to get tickets to a potential game 6 of the series. Nose bleed seats...but World Series tickets nonetheless.

Could we have sold these tickets and made even more profit than the Hannah Montana tickets?

Unfortunately, now that it's going to be a Rockies v. Red Socks World Series, these Indians tickets aren't worth the paper they're printed on. Maybe next year.

Go Tribe.

Hannah Who?

After reading about Billy Ray Cirus' daughter who performs as Hannah Montana and her national tour that is selling out arenas in minutes, I was able to snag a couple tickets to her upcoming performance in Cleveland.

So now I'm hoping that these tickets are as hot as the media makes them out to be!

If you know a parent that would like to take their teenage daughter out to a concert, please send them to my eBay listing...because I sure don't want to get stuck with these tickets.

One Expensive Picture

I'm now the proud owner of the following digital image, courtesy of Cleveland's Operation Safe Streets (aka Operation Oh-Sh*t-we're-broke-how-can-we-make-some-money?).

I figure as long as I'm paying $100 for this picture, I might as well get some use out of it.

So...In case you were wondering what my car looks like as I drive back from my lunch break someone drives it down the street, here you go:

 

(Note the proper use of the directional during lane changes)

And in case any of you were wondering...I was doing 38 on a 5-lane (2 each direction with turn lane) road. You would think that the road would be 35 mph...but apparently I was wrong.
