Why did you buy Pink tickets?
This question would fit nicely in that other thread.

Do you think maybe it was just somebody who was just oblivious to what he had to do?  Like the ticket agent had to call them and walk them thru it?
So, a really dumb aggie instead of an asshole?  Maybe... ;)

Regardless, it's a terrible policy for the reseller to have.  Those tickets should be transferred as soon as they're sold.  And the seller shouldn't have any say in when that transfer occurs.

Because I actually really wanted to see her. But then I just realized that driving to/from Dodger Stadium on a Sunday night was going to be a LONG night. 

So I decided that if I could get out break-even or better, I'd sell. If the tickets didn't sell, I'd have gone and probably would have enjoyed the hell out of it.

Pink puts on a good show.  I saw her live when she played the Saturday night concert at the Formula 1 US Grand Prix a few years back.  She's no Taylor Swift but she's entertaining for sure.

She makes solid to good pop bangers. If someone invited me to such a show, I’d be up for it. 

A few years back I ended up at a Dierks Bentley concert, and that was a fine and good time (his openers were pretty good)

She kinda skirts that line between pop and rock. I'm not much of a pop fan, but she's rock-adjacent. I just think she's a really talented artist, has a phenomenal voice, and I've heard she puts on a REALLY amazing show live. 

I've seen Dierks as well. We used to have an outdoor amphitheater here in Irvine that made it really convenient to see concerts. Saw quite a few artists there, including Dierks. Unfortunately that closed.

And after driving up to SoFi back in July for Kenny Chesney / Zac Brown Band, I just realized that maybe, just maybe...

Eh, maybe just somebody older or not quite tech savvy. 

But, probably the most plausible explanation is somebody who just plain forgot.

I got some FCS season tickets for forty bucks, and it was a laminated card with a lanyard attachment that you have to show to the guy at the ticket booth who then gives you a paper ticket that gets scanned by the guy or gal at the gate. 

Most unusual. Peculiar, even.

so what if you dont have a phone

are you just out of luck

no phone no ticket?


I don't have a smartphone, simply a personal preference for mult reasons.

I hate the end of paper tickets, it forces me to typically find a ticket mule for my Purdue season tix -- whether it's parking or going into RossAde -- of concerts which I attend a bunch of.

Both are playing in Indy in mid Oct and Nov.
