Mets Tix Drawing

The Mets are doing another one of those silly online 'drawings' to give individual game ticket buyers an opportunity to purchase tickets to the games we know will be a big draw. Right now that means opening day, the Yankee series and the last regular season game at Shea.

The registration period for these ticket sales ends Monday, February 18th at 11:59 Eastern Time.

Here are the detailed rules from the Mets website.

An online random drawing for the opportunity to purchase tickets to one or more of the five (5) select platinum priced games during the 2008 Mets season (up to a maximum cumulative total of six (6) tickets for all games combined) will be held on or about Tuesday, February 19, 2008. Each individual selected will be notified by Friday, February 22, 2008 via the e-mail address submitted on the registration form. Those individuals whose names are selected shall have an opportunity to purchase tickets at a date and time to be indicated in the e-mail. In the event that the selected individual does not respond to such notification by purchasing these 2008 select game tickets in the timeframe indicated, a disqualification will result. Please be sure to provide us with an accurate e-mail address. Neither MLB Advanced Media, L.P. nor the Mets are responsible for any e-mail notifications that are bounced back or misdirected.

Does anybody really win these things?

Rob,

I've often wondered if anybody really wins these lotteries. I realize that probably close to a million people may register for these drawings, and i'm one of them. I register with 3 different email addresses, and have NEVER even been in the drawing. I don't know of ANY of my friends that have ever been picked.

Do you think it's just a great way for MLB and METS to collect email addresses that they can start sending "come-ons" to? I already get a great deal of emailed updates from MLB and the METS for tickets, licensed wear purchases, etc.

I wish we could just buy the tickets at the grossly inflated prices and be done with it!

Tug Said it.....I believe it.....That settles it......
YA GOTTA BELIEVE
