Please update here if you need further assistance to clarify how you acquired the tickets.

Thank you for your prompt response Diane, I really appreciate it.  I am a season ticket holder, so I paid cash for the donated tickets.  I couldn't make a few games so I wanted to donate them to an organization that honored our veterans and first responders.  I received nothing in return except a receipt and a picture of smiling people enjoying the experience
