A new level of low reaches as 'fans' seek profit over Johnny Gaudreau's passing
Ticketmaster, one of the biggest ticket companies in the world, has allowed scalpers to thrive on it's platform.
They're now taking advantage of the free reign the website has given them, as they have found a way to exploit Johnny Gaudreau's death.
The 31-year-old was struck and killed, on August 29th along with his brother Matthew, when they were riding bikes in Salem Country, NJ.
According to an account on "X"/Twitter, the December 3rd game between the Calgary Flames and Columbus Blue Jackets has been sold out. But that's just half of it, as many of the tickets have re-appeared on the Ticketmaster site, with prices being marked up ridiculously.
Ticketmaster has once again made it's name infamous, as the prices have taken the ability for regular, working people to afford NHL tickets. The lowest-priced ticket is at the press level, for $170.40.
Ticketmaster feels beyond reproach or else they wouldn't let this happen on the website. People will stop at nothing to exploit the tragedies of others to make a quick buck.
