Yeah..20k for a ticket is kinda steep. That will put you in something with 4 wheels and navigation right off the lot.
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Interest in President-elect Barack Obama's inauguration is running so high that one ticket broker is asking $20,095 for a single ticket.

I don't think I want to take out a Loan just for inauguration tickets. Like I've stated before:
Tickets to the 56th Inaugural Ceremonies will be provided free of charge and distributed through Members of the 111th Congress. The Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies does not provide tickets to the public. Members of the public interested in attending the Inaugural Ceremonies should contact their Member of Congress or U.S. Senators to request tickets.

Of course, congressmen are probably giving them out to their friends and the rest to constituents who have contributed ($$$) to them.
This is the ultimate resale hustle though
