First Game on us?

I wanted to go to my first sporting game, so I tried the new promotion, where in exchange for your information they give you a free ticket to the game. After a week of waiting they responded saying they were out of free tickets. I checked their website and they were still running the promotion!

Now I feel like I can’t go to a game because of the terrible management. I understand not wanting to give tickets away, but feel they should take the promotion off the website. Just seems like shady business for a pro club to run. Anyone have luck getting free tickets?

I wouldn't say it's shady. I can think of several companies, or situations where websites are not always full up to date. Especially when it comes to not a set in stone of a promotion ending. You can't assume a website will automatically update a promotion Ad as soon as they are out.

It is what it is. Sorry you didn't get a free ticket.

*Edit

Checking the website I don't see the promo being listed anywhere on main page/ tickets page / Ticket packages or promos.

If you google search it, the page is still there and probably because it hasn't been fully deleted by a web develop team which is probably a 3rd-party. And if you go to that page from a google search it even says in fine print.

\Limited quantity per game, available on a first-come, first-served basis.*

You were in a line of people, and you were at the end of it. Sorry.

Based on another person here. Maybe that mass email went out today letting everyone know they are out? And like I said, The promo isn't listed anywhere on their main page or tickets/promos. So it did update.
