Online Ticket Sales Allegedly Now Safer
 |
Some reps didn't want to vote for the bill, since it "legitimizes an underground economy" and blah blah blah. The bill is not for the fake Ticketmaster tickets guys sell outside of concerts at the Wachovia Center, but for people who get the incorrect seat from an online purchase. In order to give the buyers recourse, businesses selling tickets on the Internet must have a physical presence in Pennsylvania, ha ha hahahaha.
He doesn't say it, but I'd bet Buxco State Rep Tommy Tomlinson passed the bill after getting totally ripped off on some Third Eye Blind/Ben Folds tickets.

Ha! This'll totally fix the guy in Nevada with Phillies season tickets who prices them too high for PA residents to bid on them on eBay. You know, or not.
