Is this stealing

[Mike Cuneo]

Roommate is arguing that buying cheap seats (like to a Pittsburgh Pirates game) and moving down to better seats is stealing. Someone set him straight.

it's obviously stealing. there's really no gray area. whether you do it or not or whether you think it's a big deal or nothing is another thing.

the argument that it's not costing them anything is absurd, and it's pretty obvious why.

would i do it? sure.

Do it, don't do it, but calling it something besides stealing is a large rationalization and maybe you examine your heart a little more.

I don't think so. If you wouldn't have otherwise bought those seats, you are not stealing.

Dayrin:

What if, in a hypothetical situation, only 2 tickets were sold. An amazing fluke, or whatever. It is the 8th inning, you move down 15 rows, b/c you say "I don't think anyone is coming".

Now, lets say you do not know that only 2 tickets were sold. However, you still see the stadium is empty. Do you still move down for the last few innings?
