US sex-for-tickets woman sentenced to year's probation
Susan Finkelstein, 44, was convicted in March of attempted prostitution. She was also sentenced to 100 hours of community service.
Last year, she placed an online ad on Craigslist seeking tickets for a Philadelphia Phillies game.
She was caught after meeting an undercover policeman who responded to the ad.
Judge Albert Cepparulo called Finkelstein's crime "incredibly stupid", saying her ad could have left her vulnerable to a predator, the Associated Press news agency reported.
The judge suggested she spend her community service speaking to groups of women about the dangers of the internet.
Finkelstein said she had wanted to get tickets to take her husband to the opening game of the World Series - in which the Phillies beat the New York Yankees 6-1.
