Standing Room Question
#1Standing Room Question
Posted: 1/15/15 at 11:10amI was wondering why they only do standing room when the show is sold out. Most people who are looking to pay standing room tickets cannot afford to pay for a full price ticket, so it's not like they would take the seats that are still available. And even if they don't sell those tickets, by turning away standing room requests they're turning down a profit. Sorry if the answer is obvious and I'm just missing it, but could someone explain the logic to me? Thanks!

Posted: 1/15/15 at 11:33amI don't know the logic, but that's the way it always is. Why don't they sell all unsold tickets for $5? Because they don't have to.
