The fact is there is not much will-call anymore, not counting comps (for which post-dating is obviously moot). And that'sthe only physical inventory in a box office today."

You have absolutely no clue what you’re talking about."

 

Agreed Swiss.

I have friends that work in box offices all over this city. Tickets are in fact held  and archived at some box offices. It is an auditing thing. And there is still a lot of will call. Comps are not the only physical inventory in a box office. Many people order online and choose Will Call. Box offices pull those and they are there for the patron to pick up. Also tickets from some discount sites are there for pick up such as TDF.
