Win Tickets to Michael Jackson's Funeral - July 4th Only

Millions of people around the world are mourning the death of Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, at only 50 years of age. And a huge number of those mourners are going to want to attend Jackson's memorial service, which will be held at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

So how to decide fairly who should be allowed to attend? Staples Center is holding a sweepstakes to win tickets to Michael Jackson's funeral.

How to Get Tickets to Michael Jackson's Funeral

For your chance to attend Jackson's memorial service, visit Michael Jackson Celebration of Life Sweepstakes and fill out the entry form. 5,500 winners will be chosen to receive two tickets to the funeral for the winner and a guest. The ARV is $25.

To be eligible, you must be a US resident aged 16 or above (void in NY, FL, and RI). Enter once per person or email before 6:00 PM Pacific Time. Any attempt to enter more than once per person will void all entries.

Note that no travel is included in the prize, and you must pick up the tickets in person, so please only enter if you have a realistic chance of attending the funeral.

The word is that Michael Jackson's funeral will be held on Tuesday, July 7th, but there has been a lot of speculation about whether the memorial ceremony will really take place. The sweepstakes' rules state that if the event is canceled, the tickets will be void and there will be no other compensation.

Good luck to all who want to attend!
