Rush Drama — Page 6

Tickets being held is not the same as line-cutting. And if the box office has a hand in whatever shady business is going on, why would they make a switch that prevented it? Someone with authority over them certainly could, but why would the people actually involved do something to stop helping the regulars?

ClumsyDude,

Haha you have no idea how many people this applies to. I can name like at least 15-20 people that that secret could apply to.

haha, you're just one, keepitpositive. you're not alone.

LePetite, while I appreciate the lovely picture of Jesse and would find that many licks from Bruiser to be more punishing to the dog, it's silly to ask for bank statements and receipts since you don't get a receipt with rush tickets.

As for the importance of this issue, obviously it is not more important than the current political issues, but that doesn't mean that it should be acceptable. Yes it's a small thing and it's kind of silly but honestly? Not everything is going to be life or death. It doesn't make crazy fans abusing their warped perception of power to take advantage of a broadway show's rush policy less unfair and something that should be remedied.


Yes, because young white girls are stupid and overreact. I'm sure not everyone who agreed that this is ridiculous is a teenage girl. I'm not. You could have left your statement with young and it would have applied. You didn't need to include race and gender. But that's a whole different issue unrelated to the bs that this thread was created for.

Oh, is that what that is? I thought jokes were supposed to be funny?

I actually don't think it's even age, it's maturity. There are people involved in this situation that are younger than keepitpositive and are handling it in a far classier manner. I agree with you, keepitpositive doesn't have to respond to justify what went on but people ARE going to continue complaining about this (at least to the LB house manager) until something is done about it.

Millions of people saw Wild Hogs. That is all.

Okay, next time I go to LB or hear someone talking about this, I'll chart out their age/sex/gender for you..no problem.

I'm not generalizing certain race group/age, but the group of crazed obsessed fans (1 group), and I did say 'mostly.'

I liked Legally Blonde, but I am neither female nor white. Oy this is coming back at me and biting me in the ass.

yes, the box offices do play favorites.

Over at SA, there is a patron that has seen the show close to 300 times. When stage seats go on sale, she waltzes up to the box office and buys a multitude of them: every month. NOT just two, that you or I would be allowed to purchase.

Obviously, they have an 'IN' with the BO...but you simply don't know why.

That certainly doesn't make it "right", but it couldn't HURT complaining to management.

(PS. If this has already been brought up, my apologies, but I couldn't read thru ANOTHER 3 pages of complaints.)
