Wanted: 2 Obama tickets. Willing to trade: A kidney.
The hottest ticket in Denver today is the ticket to Mile High Stadium for Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama’s acceptance speech tonight.
How hot is it?
Scalpers are reportedly selling them on the street for $100 a piece. On Craigslist.org, the price is up to $600 a ticket. But some folks are even more desperate to see Obama.
On Craigslist, for example, someone in the Denver area is offering a kidney for two tickets for himself and his girlfriend.
The ad says: “Are you in need of an extra kidney? Know of someone who needs one? I have 2 good kidneys which is a little excessive. I’ll give you one of them for two tickets to tonight’s speech.”
