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

ZachooMackoo tells us more.

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.

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

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?

That's a totally twisted story!

Wait, they would give you the flights based on the row on your ticket stub, right? Or else any douche who was sitting in that row for a random second could claim the tickets.

Pretzels are way better ROFL ( rolling on FLOOR LAUGHING )

Woooow dude you must be REALLY depressed.Missing out on a once in a lifetime chance! If that happened to me I'd probably steal it from the guy next to me or something...

Turn in your ticket. You deserved it. Chances are, you didn't do that.

I bet the pretzel tasted shitty after that.

Was it a good pretzel?

That shouldn't matter, you're still registered as being in that row so you would get then anyway
