Extra ticket.

    I'm going to a Nightwish show in Baltimore on Friday. Those of you who have heard of Nightwish and like them, you should be jealous. If you haven't, then I guess it doesn't really matter.

    But as it turns out, the friend I was going with can't go, so I now have an extra ticket. The tickets I bought, one for myself and for the friend, were $59 for the both of them, so there's no way I'm not going.

    This, of course, is not a "OH-WOE-IS-ME" thread or anything like that. Rather, I'm curious to see what you all think I should do with this extra ticket. Keep in mind, the club I'm going to doesn't accept returns, so that's not an option.

    I don't expect this to get many replies, but oh well. Any ideas?

    When I went to watch Toronto play Chicago over the summer, I ended up having two tickets left over. So my friends and I decided to just give them away. I don't really believe in karma, but later that night we were able to pass all of the traffic when a police officer opened a new lane right in front of us.

    It was very nice. Maybe you could try that?

    Or frame it

      Well, I figure I could find someone to go with me, or just sell it for cheap. I may be a shrewd bastard, but hey, money's money.

        I totally agree.

        We would've sold them, actually... but they don't allow scalping at Toyota Park.

    OH MY GOSH! Go to Craigslist, and make a post about it asking for a date to take, and interview ladies and you can have a girlfriend that likes Nightwish!

      I think this is a stellar idea.

      We could help screen dates and seperate the freaks from the acceptables

      Your idea kicked the crap out of my idea.

      Bravo.

        It is okay. I have seen A LOT of romantic comedies.

    Or you could pawn it off on Craigslist, but that isn't very romantic...

      Yeah, but neither am I.

      I like your idea, though. I will jump on that site tonight after I get home from school and work (I'm at college and don't have time to do it now). That's assuming I don't forget, of course.

          Now I feel like I wasted a good topic, 'cause it turns out my friend will be able to come with me after all. She and her mum like to spend a few days during the week at their other house down by the shore, and that's where she was going to be during the show. Fortunately, though, they'll come back earlier than usual so she can attend the show with me.

          Thanks for the ideas, though. If I get stuck with an extra ticket again sometime in the future, I'll use that idea then.

    Make somebody's day.
    Go to town one day. Find somebody who looks interesting. Stalk them for a bit. Start a converstaion. See if they want to go with you.
    That's how I met my bestest buddy. Only he got me skittles and not a concert ticket.
    Concert tickets are WAY cooler than skittles.

      Nope, 'cause I just found out that my friend will be able to come with me after all. She's going on a trip with her mother; they'll just come back earlier than usual.

    Sell it to the highest bidder, that is what we always do here, you hardly ever get caught for scalping.

      I wonder how no one would notice you ripping someone's scalp off? Wouldn't they scream or something? Like, you're just walking around the stadium/stage and you find someone and you rip their scalp off. Of course people are going to be incredibly shocked/disgusted. The people closest to you will hear the blood splash on the ground. It'd kind of look like Kool-aid getting spilled.

      And then what what would you do with the scalp? Run around screaming or hide it in your pants until you want to use it later?

      Hm.



      Oh. You mean scalping tickets.

      Silly me.

        No, I meant scalping scalps. All you need is a little bit of local anestetic and a bathroom, you make a mint for a good scalp on ebay.
