New York Cracking Down On Speculative Ticket Sales

New York has "tightened its laws on ticket scalping to crack down on 'speculative selling,'" with Gov. Andrew Cuomo signing a bill this week "requiring online ticket marketplaces to post a clear warning if a seller does not own tickets to a particular event at the time of the sale." The bill also includes a measure that "could clear the way" for the Yankees and Mets to "offer 'membership passes' similar to baseball clubs in other states, which allow fans to pay a monthly fee to attend games." The monthly pass measure took effect Sunday; the speculative sales measure "takes effect in 180 days" (ROCHESTER DEMOCRAT & CHRONICLE, 7/5).
