Last night at Blue Martini (a club here in West Palm Beach, FL) the Wild 95.5 radio station had a drawing for two tickets and backstage passes to the John Mayer concert tonight (8/31/08) in West Palm Beach at the Cruzan Amphitheatre.
I was the lucky winner, but before I even made it up to the stage to claim my prize a girl came up to me and told me how much she loved John Mayer and that she would give me $100 for each ticket. I knew I wasn't going to be able to make the show and the girl was so insistent that I agreed to sell her the tickets right there on the spot.
I went with her and her girlfriend to a nearby ATM. Apparently her friend didn't like that I had won the tickets and somehow thought it was
unfair that I was selling something I won for $200. When the girl gave me the cash, it was only $120. I told her that wasn't the deal.
Her friend told me that I better give them to her or she was going to take the tickets and the money and I would be left with nothing. Then the friend stood
very close to me and said "What are you going to do? I'm bigger than you are and none of your fiends are here."
So, I tossed the tickets at the girl and hurried off.
I know the tickets are theirs and there is nothing to be done about that, but I thought that all of you going to the West Palm Beach show tonight should
know that those two girls will be sitting front row and going backstage to meet John Mayer.
So far I've emailed the people at the radio station and also John's email address on his blog. Hopefully someone will read it and not let these girls back stage.
I don't think they deserve the privilege of meeting John after the way they behaved.What do you think?
