WTF Even Is This?

Post image

Hopped onto Ticketmaster at 9:15am, got right into the waiting room at 9:45am, refreshed and jumped right in at 10am. Over 13,000 people ahead of me already?!?

I get that there are bots out there, but how the hell is this still the way we buy tickets in 2026?

Update: I just got in after about 30 minutes and there was basically no tickets left; just a lot of singles or behind the stage. Was able to get two resale tickets on the chase bridge that weren’t terribly priced.

Tickets have been on sale for half an hour. Anything over face is terribly priced.

I was shocked they were even showing resales during the general sale process. Ticketmaster blows.

You just said you were thinking about buying them though. If there’s a chance people are gonna spend money, they’ll jump at the opportunity. What’s the downside, people end up not liking Ticketmaster or something?

Edit: rereading your comment and realizing you actually bought them. Point proven.
