A friend of mine(I will note that he is a notorious bull-sh!tter), supposedly can land me a few seats from Cleveland Municipal Stadium.. I haven't put much thought into it(because he's usually full of it), but if he were to actually come through for once, I'd probably take the approach that you just mentioned..
