I even remember hearing that as long as you weren't blatently flashing your alcohol around that the cops didn't stop you from drinking on the beach. Did anyone else hear about this?
I spoke w/some AC officers, alcohol in a cup, Ok on the beach. Even coolers, food but no grills.

AC Ticket sales

Post by parrotheadmom44 »

[b]Did anyone get their hands on the $66. or 96.00 seats this year? I am believing that they did not even exist. Or perhaps those were all the seats given to scalpers so they could re-sell for a huge profit? Cause ya know many of the dedicated parrotheads will not pay $226.00 let alone what the scalpers with throw on top of that!! Perhaps the $226.00 category is the reason why a small venue of Buffetts has not sold out over 24 hours after the tix went on sale? Perhaps in this difficult economy -- maybe Buffett should not be soo damn greedy, especially of his dedicated followers. :wench:

A friend of mine grabbed 2 $66 seats in section 225, but it looks like it is almost behind the stage.

This is why i'm not going. I couldn't afford the higher priced tix. I could have gotten almost as many of them as I wanted but not a single thing under the third tier price.

I understand if you call, instead of using Ticketbstard, you can get cheaper seats.
