ZMAN ZMAN ZMAN is the man. Thanks for hooking me up with 10th row. Me and my buddy were so pumped we started pounding after we got the tickets and my buddy started puking during HAIL HAIL and then we got kicked out but nevertheless I will never forget HAIL HAIL 5/21/2010 MSG Baby
Zman said Gary was with his brother. Not a "buddy".
gary has a brother. he happened to be sitting in the exact bar i was in. a few seats down. luck was on his side today. sec 4 row k. yes i know its a lottery win ticket, but id prefer to be more back with my tix and more center.
Congrats to the winner...but you said you were standing on a street corner. Kind of misleading wouldn't you say?? Kinda made me wonder if this wasn't fixed in someway since you didn't once mention you had gone into a bar.
I was not in New York so was not trying for this Lottery, nor do I know anyone who was trying. Just pointing this out for those who did try.
That said...your heart was in the right place and I applaud you on giving away the tix and all. I'm not trying to sully your good dead. Just something to think about if you decide to do this again at another show

Z was not under any obligation to do what he did, so how could it "fixed" ? The sense of entitlement displayed by some people here is baffling!

Firstly you've met me so you know that is the farthest thing from the truth about me (Just ask your tour buddies Christine and Sean...both know me very well IF you are a different Joe than one of the two I've met then I apologize). Secondly, perhaps I phrased things poorly....what I meant to say was I see where that other girl was coming from when she said she was on the street corner where he said he was going to be...and then he posts that he was in a bar and the winner was in the bar with him. I can see why she'd be upset. It's not like she just arrived too late to the correct spot...he was hardly there from the sounds of it as she said she was there within a minute or so of the post going up.
It has nothing to do with entitlement...just a fair shake for all who want the ticket should he find himself with extra tickets and want to go this route again. Next time say I'm in A bar on the corner of..whatever and whatever...you don't have to say the name if you don't want to risk getting bombarded with people all at once.
Anyways Zman...please don't hate me for my comments. I appreciate that you even held this lottery in the first place as there were many people who got shut out and so many taking advantage of that. You were doing a good thing and I think everyone here appreciated that. I'm sorry if my post came across as overly critical or in any way as an attack cause it wasn't meant that way at all.
I apologize for saying it was fixed...I should have let my brain catch up to my fingers before clicking submit. It's a bad habit I have sometimes. In real life in manifests itself as letting my foot live in my mouth sometimes. Saying it was fixed was clearly NOT the right way to get what I was trying to say across...perhaps not replying at all would have been my smartest move. Hindsight is always 20/20 right?
On that note I'm going to stop talking and hope I haven't pissed off too many people already.

soo ... zman holds some kind of amazing race thing for his lottery tickets because he wants a true diehard fan to get them and he ends up giving em to some guy who gets kicked out? ... ... this can't be true!?
