If there was an Olympic medal for problem solving, this group would own the podium. We got tickets for the Canada semi-final game. I didn’t have tickets to the Canada semi-finals game, but you had American tickets. Got on Facebook real quick and worked the socials to try to get some swaps going. Both sides agreed to. It this far at noon. All right, break here we go for the great Olympic ticket swap. I’m gonna hit transfer as trade agreements between the US and Canada go. This is about the most simple one ever. This is *** straight ticket exchange. We have like the hospitality ticket too, so I’ll send you info and you get *** gift. We were going to split it 4 ways, but we’d rather you just have it. No money, no other gimmicks, just ticket for ticket. It doesn’t matter where you’re sitting, trading tickets over their phones to hockey, sealing the deal with *** drink. The international language of having *** beer together, you know, it doesn’t get any better than that. I think it’s *** really once in *** lifetime experience to be at the Olympics. As well as get to do something as pure and together as *** ticket exchange like this, it would appear U.S.Canadian relations are back on track. At least until the gold medal round. No friends in the gold medal round. We’re here to win it. Go to Canada. say.
