The 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...

Michael Jackson's memorial service will be held at two separate venues on Tuesday morning -- the main event will be at the Staples Center and a simulcast will play at the Nokia Theatre.
A lottery has been set up for fans to obtain the free tickets -- and they can sign up for the random drawing on the Staples Center website ... good luck logging on.
17,500 tickets are available for the event -- 11,000 for Staples and 6,500 for Nokia -- which will be divvied out 2 per person. If you are one of the 8,750 people selected, you will then be alerted on Sunday with further instructions.
Oh yeah ... only U.S. residents can apply.
Also, the family wouldn't say if Michael's body would be at the memorial.
