ticketmaster needs a proof-reader

November 3, 2005 · 7 comments

my friend george and his wife are going to see ben folds monday night. he just got this terrifying email from ticketmaster with last-minute reminders about the show. george says he’s assuming they mean “upon entry” in the last line, as even ben folds isn’t worth the suggested additional entrance proceedure:

Look For Ben Folds Tickets
Additional Information :
ARRIVE EARLY: Please arrive one-hour prior to showtime. All guests and their belongings may be subject to search, which includes metal-detecting hand wands up entry.

Wow… I guess that gives new meaning to security being tight.

Ouch!

Talk about getting screwed with the cost of tickets these days

nah… that’s nothing to worry about. You only have to start worrying when it says “includes metal-detecting hand wands up EXIT.” …

… that’s when you need to lay down the tickets, slowly back up, and walk away.

… also, i’m sure there is some witty comment having to do with “bend over folds five” but I couldnt quite bring it to fruition.

… someone else feel free to “probe” the subject, post it, and take the credit for yourself.
