Really great cause... Years ago I created a Red Sox website called Sons of Sam Horn (sonsofsamhorn.net). A few years later Theo Epstein was hired as the Red Sox GM (now the Cubs GM) and he and Peter Gammons got behind this event they called Hot Stove/Cool Music... which Theo kind of took to the next level with his Foundation to Be Named Later charity. Anyway, Sons of Sam Horn was always given dibs on tickets to these sorts of things and they are well worth it. Theo didn't forget his Boston success when he left for Chicago. Great man, great charity, and always a great event. Indulge and enjoy...
I'm a huge SoSH fan! I spend an embarrassing amount of time over there!
Anyways, I agree. Take the fact that the ticket is about $100 (if you were lucky enough to get it through normal sale), it wouldn't be all that hard to drink/eat $250 worth. Add in the fact it all goes to a great charity, and it's a great deal. If I didn't have tix already, I'd be on this.
Food, beer, wine and a ticket, i don't think it's that bad, especially considering some of the prices for tickets on stub-hub. At least this is going to charity too.
Agreed. Way better than giving your money to scalpers.
