Bottom line seems to be she should be free to screw for Phillie’s tickets if she wants. Laws against prostitution are dumb on pretty much every level.

Nevertheless it remains it is currently against the law to engage in prostitution and this seems to fit the definition therefore she rightfully got busted. Sucks for her (I suspect she will get a pretty light sentence on this one).
