INAUGURATION TICKETS FOUND ON THE METRO!!!

Even with such a grand demand for inauguration tickets it is so heartwarming to see people willing to do the right thing. Will make updates if the tickets are reunited with their owner.

This was posted on the 7D listerserve a little while ago.

TONIGHT:
"My daughter and her friend found tickets on the Metro in an envelopeaddressed to Rev. Leroy Hood Sr. today. Where can she drop them off?She's still on the Metro. I've already sent an email to therepresentative's office, but have so far gotten no response. She alsotried to call but got no answer (duh, Federal Holiday). Who do youcontact to return found tickets? If anyone has any information pleaselet me know asap. They've got the tickets with them.Thanks.Alice"


LATER:
"Disregard my earlier message. We were able to track down someone atRep. Ross' office and hopefully will be able to get the tickets intothe hands of Rev. Hood. -Alice"

UPDATE FROM YVONNE SMITH OF MPD:
"Yes. She found the owners. You are right. This lady and her daughter represent the best of Washington, DC. She says her parents left her at home with her aunt to see Dr. King many years ago, now she's thrilled to be able to live to see this day. "
