If my husband died next week, I'd be out but that's how it works even though I'm actually the fan who insists on getting tickets every year. I have an account and will buy individual tickets or do transfers but most our big season tickets are on his account.
Sorry dude. Just tired of all the whining about "life's not fair." People do the best they can then everyone plays by the same rules. Not everyone can be at the front of the line.
