Phils, Eagles, Sixers, Flyers... are you 4 for 4?
When the Washington Nationals recently announced their "take back the park" initiative in which they will limit sales of tickets to the first Phillies vs Nationals series to credit cards based in the DC area we had a little fun with them. We joked about their small time attitude and massive inferiority complex. But in the end, it was more funny than anything else.
However, Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey Jr. isn't laughing. On twitter, he is calling for the Nationals to reverse this policy.
I'm calling on the @Nationals to reverse course on a reported plan to block @Phillies fans from buying tickets to games at Nationals Park.

.@Phillies have some of the best fans in the world. They shouldn’t be left out in the cold because the Nats want a stronger home field adv.

Do you agree with the Senator? Should teams be allowed to have what are basically discriminatory ticketing practices? Should all tickets be available to whoever wants them?
