Event tickets can be hard to get a hold of. I had to stand in line for half an hour to get tickets for some pop star my kid likes. I was just in time too, the poor lady behind me was told that the tickets were sold out and she had waited in line just as long as I had. Next time I'm going to buy tickets online. Although, that can be problematic as well. Sometimes for real popular things like movies, they get sold out before opening day. My friend Sharon and I wanted to go see 300 on the IMAX screen, but all the tickets were gone days in advance! That just doesn't seem fair. My husband says they have these robot type things that automatically buy up all the tickets so that people can scalp them at much higher prices. I just hate crooks like that. Especially when I got my kids bugging me about not being able to get them Coldplay tickets. There's no way I'm paying $250 for a stupid concert! It's just a shame that people who really want to can't go and see their favorite artists or movies. Or some poor kid has to fork over ridiculous sums of money to see some rock band. It's really a crying shame.
