Keith — Ended up with an extra pair as the wife and I each bought tickets. Let me know if you’re still in need.

I know name calling is against the rules, but…douche bags. I’m all for free enterprise, but did I mention…douche bags. I guess in this case, I’m more for free expression.

You must mean your first anniversary living in Decatur if you’re surprised they sold out already!

In all seriousness, it’s become ridiculous that they sell out in minutes, with many going to scalpers who sell them for a profit. However, each of the last three years, even though tickets were re-sold at high prices early on, there have been a flood of tickets available at cost or cheaper closer to the event. Two years ago I had a friend back out the day before the event and I literally couldn’t give the extra one away. So there’s hope!
