Guest Sores Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 It's a choice that could give pause to some Packers fans. A judge has ordered a woman convicted of theft to decide whether to spend 90 days in jail or donate her family's Packers tickets next season to charity. Sharon E. Rosenthal, 59, took more than $3,000 from labor union accounts before she left the organization, according to a criminal complaint. She was sentenced Friday in Winnebago County Circuit Court on one felony count of theft. Judge Scott Woldt offered her the decision to either serve the jail time or donate her family's four seats in the Packers' three-game season package to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The jail time or the ticket donation will occur as part of Rosenthal's overall two-year period of probation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Wings Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 That isn't a fair ruling. Giving up the tickets, doesn't just affect her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pork chop express Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 there are so many gaps in this story. Will she get the rights to the tix next year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stadium is full of them. Edited April 26, 2005 by Joe Public Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chargerz Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 She'll take the jail time. As hard as I've heard Packer tickets are to get, nobody in their right mind would give them up!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As hard as I've heard Packer tickets are to get, nobody in their right mind would give them up!! 794442[/snapback] It should be noted that one of the games is probably for a preseason game, as these appear to be part of the Milwaukee season ticket holder package - two regular season games (which includes Minnesota this year) and an exhibition game. So the punishment is really only eight regular season tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As hard as I've heard Packer tickets are to get, nobody in their right mind would give them up!! 794442[/snapback] That's the real question. If she simply has to donate them, but keeps the rights to the seats, its a no brainer. If she has to forfeit the lifetime rights for the seats, I do the 90 days. From the way its written, sounds as though she simply needs to "donate" the three games to charity. As mentioned above, the lack of jail time combined with the philanthropic cause makes it an easy choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sores Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Link to Story Sounds like she definitely is only out the tix this year..... Now...if her husband has a say, my guess is he eats TV dinners while she serves the time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
