Embattled New York Gov. David Paterson is finding himself embroiled in another potential scandal, this time involving New York Yankees World Series tickets he allegedly obtained without paying for this past fall. The state Commission on Public Integrity said the governor allegedly violated ethics laws by receiving the tickets, and he also allegedly lied when he told officials that he planned to pay for them. The premium tickets, which carried a face value of $425 each, were located in the rows behind home plate and were solicited from team officials.
