Online Form - What would you give to get World Series tickets?
Here are just a few examples of what some fans have put up for trade.
A pontoon boat
Casey Kusch, of Waterford, put his 20-foot pontoon boat up on the trading market. Kusch put a brief "will trade for WS tickets" message on his already existing listing in several online trading groups.
Kusch originally valued the pontoon at $3,000 before the Brewers earned their place in the World Series.
He told the Journal Sentinel he has gotten "a few bites" for the ticket trade already.

A charter flight to Europe
Brad Pinzer, of Milwaukee, offered up one-way direct business class flights to Europe in a ticket exchange Facebook group.
Each World Series ticket traded would get one one-way flight, and Pinzer said he's looking for four tickets to Games 1 and 2.
"Cheapest one way business class flights to Europe average $2,000-3,500 right now, so you will easily be on the winning end of the deal," Pinzer wrote in his post.
Pinzer told the Journal Sentinel he's had a few interested people, but hasn't landed on something around people's specific needs yet.
"I am a points/miles expert and travel advisor and specialize in points arbitrage opportunities. Particularly when it comes to business/first class international flights," Pinzer told the Journal Sentinel.
Pinzer's offer includes flights that leave from O'Hare International Airport in Chicago with destinations in Spain, France, Finland, Ireland and more.

Carpentry work
In another ticket exchange Facebook group, Tony Stover, of Milwaukee, offered up sweat hours for two tickets: one for himself and his daughter.
Stover is a union carpenter and would work on finishes, trim, flooring and other high-end carpentry work in exchange for World Series tickets, he wrote in his post .
"I don’t think anyone expected prices this high," Stover told the Journal Sentinel. "Took [my daughter] to Game 1 of the NLDS and Game 1 of NLCS I found more joy in her excitement than anything else."
Stover also said his brother is an iron worker and he has a cousin who is a plumber, and all of them discussed taking on an even bigger project in exchange for more tickets.
