No, that story is not a joke. You figure some fans are willing to go pretty far to get tickets to a big game — an Arizona Cardinals fan got his butt tattooed for NFC Championship Game tickets — but Susan Finklestein has taken the game to a whole new level. She apparently was so desperate for Phillies World Series tickets that she posted an ad on craigslist that hinted at sexual offers.

According to police, her online ad read: “DESPERATE BLONDE NEEDS WS TIX (Philadelphia) Diehard Phillies fan–gorgeous tall buxom blonde– in desperate need of two World Series Tickets. Price negotiable— I’m the creative type! Maybe we can help each other!”

Bensalem Township police said they made contact with the female after viewing her add on Craigslist.com. The woman then allegedly solicited an undercover police officer to perform various sex acts in exchange for the tickets.

Man, there are some horny guys out there, I’m surprised this didn’t work out. By the way, one of the advantages of being a police officer is you can get the sex first and then make the arrest second. So now we know what being a “creative type” means. Nice going, Susan. At least she’ll get to watch the series before her case goes to trial.
