If they then sold them for MORE than face value, they should go to jail.

Alabama legislators, other officials permitted to buy BCS football tickets at face value
 
8:45 a.m. CST, January 6, 2011


MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — An Auburn University spokesman says up to 15 Alabama legislators and state officials were permitted to buy tickets at face value to Monday's national championship foootball game in Glendale, Ariz.

Auburn spokesman Mike Clardy said Wednesday that he doesn't have a list of the names those who purchased BCS tickets because the school's office of governmental affairs doesn't handle ticket deliveries.

Clardy says the tickets will be picked up at the site of the game between Auburn and Oregon in Glendale, Ariz.

He says his office did not offer the opportunity to purchase tickets for state leaders who inquired but facilitated the purchase through Auburn's Athletics Department.

Some 26 legislators were given a chance to buy tickets at face value to the Southeastern Conference championship game on Dec. 4.

Using public office for personal gain was what this country was founded on...if you listen to those in power today. 

Of course, Washington went back to farming, even though the public tried to make him king...

Hell..........the entire state government went to Pasadena last year at taxpayers expense.....because it was a "great" opportunity to promote economic development in Alabama.

What a bunch of horseshit!

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."
