I was one of the lucky few AHA members to get through the Ticketmaster morass last week, and ended up with tickets for a couple of the sessions. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to make the Friday session, so I’ve got two tickets, which I will sell at face value ($130 total), plus the TM service charge ($3.50), plus the PayPal charge ($3.17)–the whole thing comes to $137.67. I’ve heard a lot of horror stories about AHA members buying airline tickets and hotel rooms, only to be stuck without any tickets to the event, and I’d like to help a couple of those get to the event. Since I don’t want these to end up in the hands of scalpers, anyone interested in them will need to send the following to gabftix@gmail.com:
1. A copy of your CURRENT AHA membership card–please black out the membership number and everything beyond the first letter of your last name.
2. A copy of a receipt for an airline ticket to Denver from your city of origin–again, please black out all personal information (other than the name, which should match the one on the membership card).
I will review all the e-mails I receive by 12:00 am EST on Wednesday morning, August 8 and randomly choose one that provides the required information. The winning entry can handle the payment via PayPal. Tickets are the Ticketfast print-outs, so I can either mail them to you or forward the .pdf file.
This is not a scam–I’m just trying to make sure that the tickets go to a fellow beer lover, and not someone who’s out to profit from them.
