I think it's great really. It not only sells more tickets for Bound Fory Glory & it gives Fulton County students something for their good work. Plus, it might bring in new fans for the product.

It just looks like a way for TNA to fill seats.

Yup, especially when as a wrestling fan and knowing how TNA isn't too great at selling out events... this really does show that they can't sell their own tickets as well as they'd like.

Yeah you didn't hear Donald Trump buying tickets for Wrestlemania to give it to inner city Detroit students. WWE doesn't have a problem with selling their tickets.

They gave tickets away to students of VT after the shooting. True, there's a diffrence but it's still the same thing. Besides, they (TNA) made money from Pacman who bought them. Well, no crapthey aren't going to have problems selling their tickets you're comparing a 50 year promotion to a 5 year promotion with ticket sales? WOW.

I'm willing to bet $10 that they didn't actually "sell" them to Pacman...but are trying to make both sides come out looking good. (Pacman looking like an angel, and TNA actually selling out a show.) Thumbs up TNA!

Geez, do people always find something to bitch about? Yeah alot of people here ALWAYS have something negative to say, especially about Pacman. I bet if it was someone like Sting or Shelly or Sabin doing this you'd all be like "What a great thing he's doing", but since its Pacman then you all complain about it. Why do people have such a vendetta against Pacman? He's done everything that he was told/allowed to do and I believe that he actually made things better for TNA, through his exposure and backstage conduct.

Aren't all of TNA's shows free? The ones in Orlando are anyway I believe.

Same reason as we hate Kevin Federline in WWE, David Arquette as a world champion, etc. THEY ARENT WRESTLERS.

TNA not being able to sell tickets has nothing to do with it only being around for 5 years. Simply put, its because TNA sucks. Anything else is simply an excuse/scapegoat.

I think what Pac Man Jones did was nice gesture and I respect him for it. Comparing WWE and TNA is getting old but do you all have to complain about something each time TNA news is posted. Uh why do I bother.
