Ticket purchasing lottery for ALCS ends Friday Oct. 2nd

If you want to have a chance to buy tickets to potential ALCS games at Fenway, you have until noon this Friday to go to the Red Sox Web site and sign up. You have to submit your name, email address, etc. A new twist this year is that they are asking for your credit card number and expiration date when you sign up for the lottery. They don't charge your credit card until you actually go to buy tickets (if you are lucky enough to get selected in the drawing).

The rules state that there can only be one entry person. Each multiple entry for the same person will be disregarded and only their first entry will be considered. TIP: each entry that uses a unique email address will be accepted, even if it from the same person, so if you have a work email address, home email address, etc., you should enter them all. You just have to remember to check those email inboxes when they announce who won the drawing (which they haven't announced yet).
