Any SoCal Residents here
This is rediculous......
Pats Fans Barred From Buying Playoff Tickets
Tickets Only Sold To S. California Residents
BOSTON -- It was an unpleasant surprise for some Patriots fans who wanted to travel to San Diego to see their team in the playoffs Sunday.
Tickets for the game against the Chargers were sold only to residents of southern California.
The TicketMaster Web site informed buyers that orders from residents outside of southern California would not be honored. Residency was determined by the credit card billing address.
A spokesman for the NFL said there is no league policy to prohibit the practice. The Chicago Bears have a similar ticket policy for their playoff game against Seattle.
The only alternative for Patriots fans heading to San Diego might be expensive ticket re-sellers who often charge several times face value.

I thought that visiting teams got a certain amount of allotted tickets no matter what  |

Whatever happened to the days when the Hartford Whalers would sell 50% of their playoff tickets to Bruins fans?
Big Weekend for Karma!!
