Susan Finkelstein, 43, was arrested after meeting an undercover police officer responding to the advertisement in a bar.  "I didn't do anything wrong, so I'm not embarrassed about my actions. I'm embarrassed about how I was arrested," she said.  The University of Pennsylvania graduate said she had wanted to take her husband to a baseball game between her beloved Philadelphia Phillies and the New York Yankees.

The self-described "buxom blonde" said she was simply trying to score tickets online, as she had in the past.  Ms Finkelstein told WPVI-TV: "I was hoping to get cheap tickets, maybe meet someone, and talk, and bat my eyelashes and maybe get some tickets."  Her lawyer William J Brennan said his client was merely "a nice lady overcome with Phillies fever".

She might have dropped double entendres in her Craigslist advertisement but never explicitly offered sex, he added.  Mr Brennan hopes to get the misdemeanour charge of promoting prostitution dismissed.  "If somebody read into that posting a sexual connotation, that's on them. There's no overt sexual reference," he said.

Don't they have TV's over there?

OK... how about a Tranmere Rovers home game?
