Couple Arrested For Selling “Golden Tickets To Heaven”

Couple Arrested For Selling “Golden Tickets To Heaven”
 

Tito and Amanda Watts were arrested over the weekend for selling “golden tickets to heaven” to hundreds of people. The couple, who sold the tickets on the street for $99.99 per ticket, told buyers the tickets were made from solid gold and each ticket reserved the buyer a spot in heaven — simply present the ticket at the pearly gates and you’re in.

Many readers shared the above-referenced story via social media, apparently believing that Tito and Amanda Watts were actually arrested for selling golden tickets to heaven. This story, however, was a work of fiction. 
 
A disclaimer on Stuppid.com advises that the site publishes the "stupidest, craziest stuff we can find," and the stuff they "find" is typically made up by them.

There are 10 kinds of people in this world.  Those who understand binary and those who don't.

Didn't the Catholic Church used to sell tickets to heaven (indulgences)?   I believe that was one of the things that caused the Reformation.

"One particularly well-known Catholic method of exploitation in the Middle Ages was the practice of selling indulgences, a monetary payment of penalty which, supposedly, absolved one of past sins and/or released one from purgatory after death."
