    Hey it's cool dude no dirt on my shoulders - I can take the heat if it makes you feel better by jumping in on page 6 of a thread.

    I didn't want to condemn you without hearing your side and now that I have I have to agree it was a pretty low move.

    I think you understand why Airbullard is pissed and will give you some credit for offering to work something out.

    I just called it as I saw it. I didn't realize there was a limit on posting opinions here. Why are you upset anyways? You yourself said there was a mutual risk and you did this to yourself. I don't think you have much else to say here.

    If this guy doesn't pay up I think a ban would be appropriate.

    I agree. I've had a few Clutchfans offer to take me to a game or use their League Pass.

    i completely agree. it's why i love this board. i was in dave's group in the suites and had a great time.

    i've also dealt with other people here concerning tickets and nothing like this has ever happened. i'm sad that i had to deal with this dude.

    this is the best place on the net and there are great people here, for sure.

    Takes a lot of balls to finally own up to your mistake.

    Kudos to you on that front.

    I think we all learned something from this.

    I just can't think of what that is at the moment. :D

    Oh yea...:

    1. Kind of shady to call someone out on a popular BBS
    2. Kind of shady to stand someone up on tickets 30 mins before game
    3. Kind of shady to participate in this thread (unless we're all lawyers)

    Will the real Slim Shady please stand up? Please stand up. Up...up...up.

    Can't we all just get along? I forgive all of you (said as I put my stones back in the garden).

    Peace...or war. Whatevah.

    I applaud you for 'manning' up in the end. Takes a lot to do that. I don't think a ban or you paying the tip jar was necessary. Just a sincere apology, instead of blaming the 'victim'. I don't want to harp on that though. Good on you for finishing this up.

    Good Job Man.

    I have stuck between my parents and my own words before, it's a tough thing.

    What's important is not that you made mistakes it's that you correct your mistakes.
