This has been about five years ago, but it is still a funny story. First off, realize that the local Ticketmaster outlet is inside the service desk for Bergners. This particular day there were either two or three shows going on sale at the same time, right at opening (10am on Saturday morning). Well, a whole group of us show up so we can get in line to get our tickets. I, along with some friends, were there to get WWE tickets. There were some people for a concert as well. One guy took the cake though. Bergners did a ticket system to where one person was first in line, then starting with the next sequential number, went on. I was third in line and took the money for my friends and waited. 10am struck and the door opened to the store. We get upstairs and Sir Idiot showed himself.
TMC - Ticketmaster Clerk.
Me - me.
IWM - Irritated Wrestling Mob.
SI - Sir Idiot.
FWF - Female wrestling fan.
Sir Idiot was first in line and thought that as such, he could pick what seats he wanted for the show he was wanting to attend (not the WWE one luckily). Here goes:
SI: I want *names exact seat location*
TMC: I'm sorry, I can only do first available.
SI: I am first in line, I think I should be able to get to pick my seats.
TMC: I'm sorry sir, with multiple shows starting to go on sale, we can only do "best available" for seats.
SI: That's ridiculous.
This went on for a couple more rounds.
FWF: (to me) That guy better understand that if I don't get tickets because of him, I AM going to be mad.
Me: *chuckles*
IWM: Just take "best available". We want our tickets.
SI: (to all of us) Do you want me to take best available?
IWM: (in unison) YES!
SI: (to clerk, meekly) best available.
TMC: Ok sir, here are your tickets.
SI: *hightails it*
The rest of the time goes by without a hitch. All of the wrestling fans get their tickets and we go on our merry way. I know it was for a show in Peoria, I just don't remember which one. :-p
