Updated throughout the day with quick takes from staff.
By now you've probably heard the story of Susan Finkelstein, a 43-year-old woman who offered up a very "creative" payment method for two World Series tickets. And by creative, I mean sex.
“DESPERATE BLONDE NEEDS WS TIX (Philadelphia)
“Diehard Phillies fan–gorgeous tall buxom blonde– in desperate need of two World Series Tickets. Price negotiable— I’m the creative type! Maybe we can help each other!”
But don't worry, this story ends well. I mean, she was charged with soliciting prostitution and "related offenses," according to ABC 6, but hey, she's unlikely to go to jail! And even better, she's headed to Game 3 of the Series thanks to a local radio show.
The lesson to people everywhere? You should definitely go ahead and offer sexual favors to people on Craigslist. That never ends poorly.

Can you really blame her? If it worked for Men, don’t you think we’d offer sex for World Series tickets???

She needed two tickets. Probably taking her husband to the game. Yippee – let’s hear it for open marriages!

I just knew that she was going to wind up with tickets to the World Series…
…and how many of you believe that those tickets were "free"?

At first I thought she was giving her tickers away to someone who would have sex with her. Or it was Tom Cruise in drag, take your pick.
Anywho, if I mow my neighbors lawn and I get paid in tickets, does that mean I’m a prostittute- or do I have to flash my wang about for awhile?
Retraction on the Tom Cruise thing. I am going to be sued, so I have to correct my post. Tom Cruise will only dress in drag in OT level 34 meetings. Which menas it’s him and the mice from "Hitchhiker’s Guide", and the mice ate thier own intestines to get away.
Edit- Do to more Scientology pressure, I am a willling believe and love L. Ron Hubbard. He is sexy man. Why do I bother, no one is going to find anything I wrote funny.
Sorry.
