 Baseball Ticket Tragedy (or, GODDAMNIT UPS!!!!)

So my girlfriend's roommate Eileen, who's been my best bud four the last 4 years, her sister somehow got four tickets to tomorrow's Yankee/Red Sox game. She lives in Baltimore, so she sent them to us by UPS Next Day Air on Thursday. The delivery attempt was made on Friday, but no one was home. The attempt was at 7:38! What kind of random time for a delivery is that?!
So today we figured we'd be able to pick them up at the UPS Warehouse downtown. But...it's closed Saturday. What sense does that make? Anyone who misses a delivery during the week would obviously miss it because of school or work and so Saturday would be the best day they could go get it...the warehouse is closed, Eileen went and there's just a security guard there and he says no one has been in all day.
So our four tickets to tomorrow's game are just sitting there. Locked in a warehouse. And there's nothing we can do about it...

Plus the Yankees are down 2-0 right now. That doesn't make things any better.
