You're asking someone to pay you for FREE tickets?

I'm pretty sure they don't allow line sitters at Shakespeare in the Park. This isn't Hamilton. I mean, not that they will stop you but you shouldn't be advertising here.
Yeah, the Public clearly states on Shakespeare in the Park tickets that they aren't for resale, and while you aren't technically charging for the tickets, it's still pretty shady to charge people for something that is intended to be free.
Sadly, line-sitters have been a part of Shakespeare in the Park for a while, especially when it's a high-profile star like Meryl Streep or Al Pacino. I don't know how the Public can prevent them from getting free tickets and reselling them, but I sure wish it could be stopped.

A lady I met in the cancellation line for Hamilton said she has sat multiple times as a linesitter for Shakespeare in the Park.
Normally the person hires the line sitter before the line sitter gets tickets. In that way one can say the person hired the line sitter for his/her time and didn't buy the tickets. From this post, it seems to me the OP will give you the ticket only if you pay him/her some compensation, which in essence is reselling the ticket. But whatever.

OP seems to have deleted his/her post. Guess they will take their "sale" elsewhere!
