Scalpers aren't bad, mom
I did a few friendly stories about the social benefits of ticket scalping for the LA Times and the Post-Gazette. This one describes the illegal action prior to a 1996 Pens playoff game in Pittsburgh.
I should have gotten a lifetime achievement award for my pro-scalping stories from Scalpers Anonymous. Springsteen or Streisand concerts, LA or Pittsburgh, same dumb ticket policy, same dumb result.
