I guess when I look at it as the guy in my circle of friends with season tickets. If I am not going to the game I like to get some money back for them since I could always post them on here and break even on them. I always ask if they want to BUY tickets. There are so many free coporate tickets floating around that I think it is worth being clear.
On the other hand if I ask someone to go to the game with me I don't expect them to pay but I think I do expect them to ask how much so I can say oh just by me a beer. I think that is the social courtesy of not being cheap of always offering to pay.
So both are at fault the first guy for not specifying payment and the second guy for not immediately asking how much for the tickets.
Edit: After answering the poll I picked option 3 but was supprised to see that very few blame the second person as if there was only two choices I would have picked the person not following the normal social convention of offering to pay.
