The New Jersey Nets are struggling. They have the league's worst record at 6-53. Because of that, they're last in attendance. To combat this they've tried a few bizarre promotions over the years. First, they gave away tickets to unemployed workers, and also gave them career advice. Then, if you bought a 10-game ticket plan you got a jersey that featured not just a Net, but also an opposing player. This Friday, the Nets will unleash another in their long line of minor league-esque promos: Their latest promotion will be unveiled Friday, when the Nets play the Orlando Magic. New Jersey residents 18 or older who attend the game will get a coupon that they can redeem at a Roni Deutch Tax Center to get their state income tax done free. Yahoo!
