If it's any consolation

A local college decided to have Carrot Top as a fundraising event. I don't know exactly know what they were thinking. At first, their advertising was all about the college - the show was not open to the public.

They sold about six tickets. For a theater that seats 1000.

So next they took out a few radio spots announcing they had opened it to the public.

They sold three more. Nine tickets for a 1000 seat theater.

Finally, they reimbursed the nine people and gave the tickets away free.

About 70 people showed up, most of them drunk and disorderly.
Most heckled more than listened.
