11. But it's more than that

Both House and Senate ethics rules generally allow members to attend events free if they are legitimate fundraisers. But Republican officials said the game was not considered a fundraiser and the Trump campaign did not play a role, leading to questions among some members about whether they needed to pay for tickets.

I.e., the RNC providing those tickets to whoever went into that box, would be considered a "gift" to those Congress persons that is not being applied towards some type of campaigning for them.

And if they had been regular federal employees and didn't pay for their own tickets, then they could potentially kiss their jobs goodbye (or at least face some kind of discipline including reprimands or suspensions), and I say this as a retired 30+ year fed.
