STEELERS FANS WILL HAVE A BETTER CHANCE TO GET REASONABLY PRICED TICKETS THIS SEASON.
PITTSBURGH CITY COUNCIL WEDNESDAY PASSED AN ORDINANCE WHICH WOULD LEGALLY ALLOW PEOPLE TO BUY AND RESELL TICKETS FOR BOTH STEELERS AND PIRATES GAMES.
THE COUNCIL AUTHORIZED AN AREA BETWEEN HEINZ FIELD AND PNC PARK WHIERE ANYONE CAN BUY AND SELL TICKETS, AS LONG AS THEY DON`T EARN MORE THAN 5 DOLLARS PROFIT, OR 25 PERCENT OF THE VALUE OF THE TICKET. PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF THAT ZONE CAN ALSO RESELL THEIR TICKETS FOR HIGHER COST, BUT THEY HAVE TO BUY A LICENSE FROM THE CITY.
