The standard procedure is for the campaign to purchase tickets, buses, entertainment, etc.
Any Iowan of legal age can participate if they have tickets. Heck, Romney was mailing 'em out
I got one myself, which I promptly circular-filed.
The idea of people buying tickets instead of campaigns is pretty foreign to the Iowa straw poll, but that's what we did. We also made our own t-shirts, carpooled, and some of us slept overnight on the campaign grounds because we had nowhere in town to stay. So apologies if some of us managed to ruffle a few feathers. It's a very motivated group.
