What they've got is pretty good but subbing out "roasted" for "ramrodded" would take it next level.

He needs to be careful. Just watched a movie last night where the police put a person in a piano to electrocute them.

i'm curious to see how this will be enforced. seems that the best way would be for resellers having to prove they have the tickets before they can list them… so upload a photo of the tickets - which can be be faked? show a receipt - which can also be faked? resellers need to hook into original tiket retailer (TM, etc.) to provide confirmation of ticket owners - which would be expensive and potentially have privacy concerns? or will this just be a weak-assed fine on resellers if they're proven to have sold speculative tickets? (so, don't get caught…)
