Another Sox Story

Best story of someone getting tickets for the series, so far. A friend's sister-in-law is a teacher in Chicago. She has a computer science class that covered the noon Ticketmaster sale time. Helping the students to undertand computers through real-life applications, she had all 25 students try to get through to Tickmaster (showing them how to refresh their browser, open mutliple sessions, etc.). The result? One student was able to get a pair of tickets for the teacher (who is a Sox fan and is married to another Sox fan).

I thought it would have been more interesting if it was an ethics class.
