Countdown to Michael Jackson Memorial Madness

Michael Jackson's memorial service isn't slated to begin until Tuesday at the Staples Center, but its garnering enough media attention to make it the hottest ticket in MANY towns.

It is expected that over 1 billion people will be watching the event on television. Over 1.6 million people registered to enter the drawing for the event, hoping to be among 8,750 lucky fans chosen at random by a computer to receive tickets. In fact, tickets are in such demand, they were being sold on e-Bay for $10,000!! Fortunately, those ticket offers were removed from Craigslist and e-Bay.

Don't be fooled!! Tickets are void without the golden wristband, which accompanies it.


No tickets?? Stay home, as told by Los Angeles police department, as a massive horde of ticket less fans and look-a-likes are expected to head down at the Staples Center, anyway.

Hopefully, once the King of Pop is laid to rest, all this hoopla comes to an end. I find it despicable that some are attempting to benefit off of this man's death. Anyways, in the event that you are among the millions without a ticket, watch the events from the comfort of your own home. I guarantee that will probably be the wisest investment you would make in your own sanity. RIP Michael Joseph Jackson.
