Campaigning to meet someone online?
I was wondering if it is illegal to campaign to meet someone, online. I want to meet one of my favorite guitarists, but I can’t just fly to where he is, and hope he lets me in. So I thought I’d have people donate for my travel fund, and then, email Guitar World, Guitar Player, stuff like that, and see if the wordd can get to the person I want to meet. Since I’m not stalking, I’m not meeting the person without their permission, and I’ll state what the donation i sfor, I didn’t think it’d be illegal. Is it?

I am not a lawyer, but to my untrained mind, this sounds like panhandling. You might want to check with a trained legal professional just to make sure of the terminology so you cant get caught up in a charge somewhere down the road.
Best of luck and I hope this is useful
