"I don't know how often this happens, but someone was handing out "Vote Puffer & Jasper for the lovers" before the performance. And then Will and Chita were both so good that I thought it would be fun to see them as the lovers, so I did! But only one half of that couple won."
Whoever was doing this is kind of an a-hole. It was closing night. Everyone in the cast would've loved to win and the point of the show is that the audience decides. Not one crazy person who has their heart set on seeing one specific ending.
If there was something specific you wanted to see, the show ran for almost 6 months. Why would you feel so ENTITLED to act like a jerk at the final performance? I personally have never stagedoored this show or been involved in that way, but I've heard some stories about the "fans" of this show that make my hair curl, everything from people who sent custom "cookie cakes" to members of the cast backstage to this kind of overt campaigning for votes.
Funnily enough, I watched one of these nut jobs try to tell Peter Benson's wife to vote for Crisparkle for Datchery. She, of course, explained that she would in fact be voting for her husband and that she'd love it if they did too. Ace.
