Today, I went to a professional baseball game. In the 5th inning, our row was chosen for a random giveaway where everyone sitting in the row recieved free roundtrip airline tickets to New York City. While this was going on, I was up, getting a pretzel. FML

No, it was real. It was at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, which is never at capacity. And the tickets were the southwest airline new cheap ones, I think maybe $50. I went to fan assistance to try to get my ticket, and they said that they didn't even know about it, and the sponsor (southwest) was only there to distribute the flight tickets, then left. I tried calling, and they kept thinking I was trying to get extras for family or something. But, it was not a fake, the tickets were legit.

And why wouldn't they just honour your ticket stub? It's for the people with tickets (and who came to the game) for that row right? Not just the people who happened to be sitting there, no?

You can show your ticket stub. You should have instead of feeling bad for yourself.

#13: Depends where you are coming from whether New York is nice, and if you've never been there too. The game was probably in New York :). But yea, if the row really did win, I'm sure they'd honor the stub. Or someone was ******* with ya and they didn't really do the give away.

I call fake, other wise YDI for being an idiot you had a ticket stub to prove you were in that row. Not like they would be able to prove you were not in the seat at that given time.
