Re: $25 to attend Michael Jackson's funeral

I heard a radio interview with a ticket recipient today. The lady/girl sounded just giddy that she had a ticket to the festivities - all excited like she was going to The Super Bowl or something.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone so excited to be going to a funeral.

Which leads me to my next comment that Americans, by and large are IDIOTS.

I am guessing it will be a banner day for the 24/7 news outlets. Can I get some betting action on the number of dumpsters that will be set on fire?

I heard that the Air Force is going to buzz Robert McNamara's funeral with a squadron of F-111's in the missing-man formation.

I wonder if there will be anyone outside scalping tickets? Wonder how much a MJ funeral ticket would bring on Ebay?
No scalping. They will be given a ticket and a wristband. If you don't have both, or if the wristband appears to have been tampered with, you don't enter.

click your own link...says it was removed. I heard Saturday that people were scalping them on eBay and had only applied for a ticket, weren't sure they'd get one. Then the story about the wristband and ticket pair are what got you in.

When I posted the link it was still up. In the auction it said you would get a voucher which would allow you to pick up your wrist band, you had to supply your own transportation to LA, etc. I knew one would pop up on ebay it was too predictable.

Congressman Peter King isn't shy about his thoughts on MJ. Calls him a pervert and low life!

Yeah, but one would hope that, out of respect for the man as a human being, people would not be trying to directly profit off his death.
Got any proof or is that an assumption? Looked more like an androgynous alien to me.

Don't quote that idiot. He is a special piece of dung all on his own.
