Jackson's Chosen Few Play Beat the Clock

Michael JacksonThe deadline to pick up Michael Jackson memorial tickets is causing a frenzy, because some of the ticket holders -- especially those who live out of state -- can't make it to the ticket counter by the 6PM deadline.

Right now, anyone who was selected to attend must present the voucher for their tickets by 6PM at Dodger Stadium.

An AEG spokesman tells us they've been receiving complaints and are now considering pushing the deadline.

Stay tuned...

31. I have friends living in LA, I have waited 38 years to experience the MJ. I registered and was ready to fly/drive from Texas to CA on Sunday, Unfortunately, I received the disappointment this morning that I was not selected. I have cried everyday since Michael passed. I guess I will watch on TV with the other millions of people, RIP MJ.

I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU MICHAEL JOSEPH JACKSON. YOUR MUSIC HAS A HISTORY IN MANY PARTS OF MY LIFE AND FOR THAT I CAN ALAYS HOLD YOU IN MY HEART

LOVE AND PEACE TO JERMAINE,JANET,TITO,MARLON,REBI,LATOYA,JACKIE,RANDY, JOSEPH AND CATHERINE, PRINCE MICHAEL I PRINCE MICHAEL II AND PARIS KATHERINE

33. #23-If i were you i wouldn't act all self righteous...#1.from the way you're talking it sounds like you may end up in the company of satan yourself!!! #2 you don't know if MJ had asked God to be saved. and #3 to even joke around like that just shows how ignorant you really are, there are always people that have make fun of the deceased and they're families in times of tragidy and this is what this is, a huge and sad tragidy...Mj's family has to deal with all the media attention during a time of grief and heartbreak. We should all be praying for them during this sad time, and not making immature and childlike comments!!!!!! have a good day little boy!!!

34. OFF Topic - but funny enough -- also read elsewere .. the Ringling Brothers will be walking the elephants at 3AM to the Staples center for the circus that starts the next day~ that will be interesting to see for all those hanging out on the streets. It sounds like they are walking in for miles???

37. I won two tickets but I live in Ks and can't make to Dodgers from here by 6:00 PM and I got my tickets printed off at noon. It's seeming to me that only the people that camped out there days ago and won, and those that live in Ca and won will be able to make it. It was a sorry setup.

39. Its 1:30pm in Los Angeles and all my friends have received their "regrets" email except me. I have my email set to immediately delete all spam. It's possible that my MJ Memorial email was deleted in spam. Is there a way to see a list of the winning email addresses?

40. AEG should be checking the scalpers on Ebay. Saw one ticket with a bid of $19,500. What a crock

41. Thank you for your registration.

Sorry, we regret to inform you that your registration to attend the Public Memorial Service for Michael Jackson was not selected.

Hundreds of thousands registered, but only a few can be in attendance.

42. If you couldn't make it by the deadline-- you should've never entered. Thats whats so upsetting.
Those tickets could've gone to someone who could actually make it. I mean, I read that someone in IRAN won a ticket?!?!
Really? By the time they received their notification, it was probably in the middle of the night their time.. so how on earth could they have hopped on a plane and been here by this afternoon? (unless of course they were actually already here in LA at the time, which I doubt)
Such a waste.. and not fair..
AEG needs to release the tickets for all the no shows and... re-distribute..

43. I just picked up my two tickets at Dodger Stadium... you will not believe my story. Last nite I posted on Craigslist " wanted 2 tickets" "I don't have any $ but I am a huge fan that lives 45 minutes away from Staples and would love to go". And guess what?? 5 minutes later I got an email from a lady who said she won and she wanted to give them away to a true fan. She asked me for my email and I gave it to her... then next thing I knew I had the ticket code in my inbox. I'm happy to say there are goo hearted people still here in this world. I owe this lady huge. She made my day, year, life!!!! Thanks P! You know who you are. I even got floor seats at Staples!

44. Yvonne whats sorry is that you entered the contest knowing you couldn't make it there.
Why did you enter?

45. TO POST 35 I had hoped we'd be able to pick up the tickets anytime before the memorial. Who knew they'd put a 6:00 pm deadline on it and we'd have to get them at Dodgers tonight? I didn't did you?
