Lobbyists ply lawmakers with wrasslin’ tickets

Three St. Louis-area politicians recently disclosed an odd gift from lobbyists: tickets to a March WWE Raw performance at the Scottrade Center. There’s nothing illegal or fishy about the gifts, but the idea of our elected officials cheering for body slams and clotheslines is pretty amusing.

According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Steve Webb

(D-Florissant) and Scott Dieckhaus (R-Washington) and

April Ford-Griffin (a St. Louis alderman) were all in attendance for matches. The night even included Snooki as a special guest!
