It’s the story you’ve seen everywhere! And by everywhere, I mean on Philebrity last week and then on the front cover of the Daily News on Saturday (of course).
Picking up the story and running with it is suburban alt-weekly Philly EDGE who ditches the skinny-girl-with-Cs cover formula for one week and instead goes with the Eagles (what else). It reports on several radio station promos for ways to get tickets: Somebody on Barsky smashed his wife’s heirloom wedding ring, somebody on Q102 had to write “Q102 Go Eagles” all over her brother’s body, etc.
But it also reveals a shocking truth about the couple who wanted to go to the Eagles’ playoff game in exchange for having sex at the direction of the one giving them the tickets.
Through a posting made on the Philadelphia page of craigslist.org last Thursday (Jan. 4), the couple, both graduate students at local universities, agreed to perform sexual acts at the direction of any ticket holder willing to exchange two seats for last Sunday’s game at the Linc.
“We (had several) offers,” Peter said, declining to divulge details of any encounter. He said he had been contacted by five newspapers, and men’s magazine Hustler, with requests for more on the story.
He admitted to being “(un)comfortable with all the commotion this has caused.”
Peter, though, had no regrets about the posting, which was first reported on by Philebrity.com, and then subsequently by the Daily News and several national Web sites. The results of the game, however, did disappoint him.
“I’m a Giants fan. She’s the Eagles fan…. This was a big game for the both of us. (It was for) bragging rights.”
In the original post, it specified no anal, which is appropriate: That was reserved for Sunday, when the Eagles totally fucked the Giants in the ass.

I read this with a dropped jaw. OH. MY. GOOD. NESS. Seriously, my husband asked me the other day if sports “fanatics” have a mental illness. I can’t help but wonder now…
I’m not sure winning with 3 seconds left on a field goal against a team that tanked the last half of the season is really “fuck[ing] the Giants in the ass.” Imagine what will happen when the Eagles actually play a good team? Well, I guess we’ll find out this Sunday.
In other news, I was hoping this story was about women giving their bodies for playoff tickets. I now have no reason to attempt to get Eagles season tickets.
