Scalpers Exploiting Johnny Gaudreau's Death Already
Ticket Resellers are some of the lowest of the low, have already begun to exploit Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau's death.
As the hockey community continues to mourn the deaths of Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau, scalpers are busy trying to profit from their deaths.
The brothers were struck and killed by a drunk driver in Salem County, NJ.
According to an account on X, the fan has posted that the tickets for the December 3rd match-up between the Calgary Flames and Columbus Blue Jackets have already sold out. Tickets have been sold out, and reappeared on the secondary market, with ridiculous asking prices.
Thanks to the monopoly, Ticketmaster fans are gouged by other resellers on the secondary market, which allows them to resell them for a higher face value.
The lowest priced tickets you will find are at the press level at $170.40, which for a hockey game is ridiculous. This practice is depriving fans of a chance to see their team on the ice, amongst other events planned that night.
It goes to show, that Ticketmaster, is operating frivolously and allowing people to rip off NHL fans, without shame.
People will not operate on principles to not exploit the death of someone who was a brother, son, father, husband, and friend.
The hammer should come down hard on Ticketmaster after this debacle.
