Wrong number text leads to free Stanley Cup tickets
PITTSBURGH (AP) — A text message sent to the wrong number led to a couple scoring free tickets to see the Pittsburgh Penguins play Game 2 in the Stanley Cup Final.
KDKA-TV reports Amy Santora received a text offering four tickets to Wednesday night’s game. She called the number, and the man on the other end said he sent the text to the wrong number.
Santora says the man called her back a few minutes later saying the text’s intended recipient only wanted one set of the tickets.
The tickets were priced at $329. The man told Santora she could have them for free.
Santora and her husband took the man up on his offer, finding seats behind the goalie.
As for the mystery texter, Santora says “whoever you are, thank you.”
