BUY GAME 5 TICKETS AT COST (Lower Box Sec 133 for $52.50 each) from 9=8.com

Rays fans, here is the deal you've been waiting for. I was fortunate enough to get some extra tickets to Game 5 of the ALDS (if necessary). So, rather than make a killing on StubHub, I thought I would offer them to some true Rays fans at MY COST ($45 face value + Ticketmaster fees of $7.50 = $52.50 per ticket). That's a steal since tickets to this game on StubHub in the lower box are going for $85 to $1,250 EACH!!! You are not going to find this deal anywhere and your chances lof winning are actually are really good. This contest is to win the right to buy 2 tickets in Section 133, Row GG of the Lower Box for $52.50 each.

So, here's the deal. Send me an email at 9equals8@gmail.com and beg for tickets. While it's be great if your story were true, I would encourage as much fantasy and embellishment as possible (this is supposed to be fun). Why do you deserve these tickets at cost? Do you have economic hardship (my dog ate my paycheck)? Is your one-eyed grandmother in need of an escort? Do you have special powers that will jinx the White Sox hitters? Get creative, people!!! I will choose the winner from this list and publish the winning story on this blog.

The only catch is that the email address that you use to submit your story must be an email that is on our feedburner roster (e.g. you need to sign up to receive 9=8.com via email - CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP).

That's it, Rays fans. Just send me your story and you could win this opportunity. With our email list at only 26 people right now, you have about a 1 in 26 chance of winning this contest (and you know not all 26 of these subscribers is going to email me a story). Where else are you going to get odds like these?

The deadline for submitting your story is Monday, October 6th at 5:00PM EST.
