Ironic/ Amusing Discount codes#1

Posted: 1/28/09 at 5:20pm

In my e-mail yesterday I recieved a coupon code for the tour of Jesus Christ Superstar. When I looked at the code itself I laughed out loud. The code was JUDAS. Anyone else have any similar ones?

Does the discount get you in for 25 pieces of silver?

I thought the codes were supposed to be intentional? Because when I saw Les Mis at Wolf Trap, the discount code was "JEAN."

I remember a discount code for "Legally Blonde" being BAILZ

My favorite is for "Curtains" during the week or two when John Bolton was playing Frank Cioffi for David Hyde Pierce.

The code was: DHPX

Still makes me laugh to this day

I thought the codes always had something to do with the show?

DefyingGravity, often they do, but the poster was just asking about some amusing sounding ones.

Jeez I was just asking a question. No need to be a bitch about it.

in Toronto, sometimes the codes can be pretty easily guessed.

for Dirty Dancing it was BABY
for Color Purple it's HARPO
for Sound of Music it's MUSIC
for Spring Awakening it's SPRING

for Medea, it's REVENGE (I like this one and Baby the best!)

I'm sure you're right Weez about 30 pieces - haven't read the bible for a while...

I used to think Jesus died at 37 as well - had a whole song planned about it, but my better informed friends told me it was 33, which still works but doesn't seem quite as funny - maybe because I'm 36.

Anyway - Note to self - check everything you post at BWW
